Title
Msitso wo Khata. 1st Movement, The First introduction
Description / content note
There were 6 rattle players (Ndota we njele) and 28 to 30 dancers. For this dance the combined teams of dancers and musicians of both Regulo Canda and Cabo Mtoti were present. They were not well rehearsed and the performance would have been better with the teams separated. The tone quality of Regulo Canda's xylophones is always distinctive. Orchestral dance with 22 Timbila xylophones - 6 Chilanzane (Treble), 5 Sange (Alto), 5 Doli (Tenor), 3 Debiinda (Bass), 3 Gulu (Double Bass).
