Title
Ngeniso. 4th Movement, The Entry
Description / content note
Luzi Chowani is the name of the leader of the dancers. The drum which is used for this movement, in some but not all Chopi villages, is played to one side of the orchestra and slightly in front of the players. It is played rapidly with two sticks. The player was the son of Bokisi who came with me to Durban in 1943. The boy Kalozi is hoping that the girl Madikinyana will marry him and cherish his home. Orchestral dance with 16 Timbila xylophones, 2 Chilanzne (Treble), 8 Sange (Alto), 2 Doli (Tenor), 2 Debiinda (Bass), 2 Gulu (Double Bass) and 4 Njele rattles, 1 drum.
