Title
Mabandhla. 11th Movement, The Councillors
Description / content note
The Kutokozela cries precede the music, with the loud reports of the shield of the leader of the dancers smacking the ground as he declaims. It is during this movement that pairs of dancers come from either end of the line and dance together. When every pair has had its turn the line forms up and dances and sings the coda together. Orchestral dance with 14 Timbila xylophones - 2 Chilanzane (Treble), 8 Sange (Alto), 1 Doli (Tenor), 1 Debiinda (Bass), 2 Gulu (Double Bass).
