Description / content note
The Mbandi wa mabandla, the leader of the dancers, leads the Tokozile cries, punctuating his calls by smacking his dance shield down onto the ground.

Orchestral dance with 14 Timbila xylophones - 2 Chilanzane (Treble), 8 Sange (Alto), 1 Doli (Tenor), 1 Debiinda (Bass), 2 Gulu (Double Bass).
