Description: "My husband likes to roam, so I shall break his bicycle." These women were Ngoni, but singing in Nsenga the language of their forebears. The singing of the Ngoni is especially interesting for the fact that they sing in 2 distinct styles, that of the Zulu (Ngoni), their father's tribe and that of their mother's tribes who were conquered by the Ngoni. Both strains are still clearly defined after nearly a century of integration. Women's party dance song with clapping.
