Title
Msumeto. 9th Movement
Description / content note
A line of young girls including those who had danced their "Chingomani" dance during the morning moved up to the orchestra behind the line of men when they moved forward. This very short Msumetso was by way of being a skit on the impression left upon them by Portuguese music and military words of command, the dancers performing various typical actions of soilders being drilled with Kutokozela cries. The retreat, with preliminary cries. Orchestral dance with 16 Timbila xylophones - 2 Chilanzane (Treble), 8 Sange (Alto), 2 Doli (Tenor), 2 Debiinda (Bass), 2 Gulu (Double Bass) and 4 Njele rattles.
