Subject: Folk music--Africa; Music--Mozambique; Folk songs, Chopi; Chopi (African people); Field recordings
Description / content note: This piece is notable for a solo passage towards the end by Chiponi, at 1m. 45s. to 1m. 55s., when he repeats his solo introduction. This is a new device to me and it emphasises the fact that individual Chopi musicians are not afraid to make innovations. Orchestral dance with 14 Timbila xylophones - 2 Chilanzane (Treble), 8 Sange (Alto), 1 Doli (Tenor), 1 Debiinda (Bass), 2 Gulu (Double Bass).
