Description / content note: The composer of this item, Matauli Chitombi sat on the left of the leader playing a Dole or Bingwe in the front row. The dancers sang to this item, a somewhat unusual practice, as most Msitso are not accompanied by a lyric, the orchestra finishing the dance by itself while the dancers leave the floor. In this case they stayed and sang the verse. Orchestral dance with Timbila xylophone orchestra.
