Title
Mzeno. 8th Movement, The Advance
Description / content note
Unlike other villagers, the women sang Mzeno with the men. I had not previously seen this in any other Chopi village, but it now appears to have become popular and can be seen at Canda's village as well. No time limit was set for the rendering and consequently this represents a normal village performance. Orchestral dance with 16 Timbila xylophones - 2 Chilanzane (Treble), 8 Sange (Alto), 2 Doli (Tenor), 2 Debiinda (Bass), and Njele rattles.
