- Description: Komukomu started this attractive melody very quickly while a few members of the orchestra interpolated occasional notes. When we recorded this item they played rather more loudly than before and lost something of the charm of this solo performance. As the road to Regulo Banguza's village was at the time impassable, Komukomu and his musicians walked over to Mavila's village with their instruments for this recording, a distance of about six miles. The drift across the river was temporarily out of use on account of recent floods. Movement from the dance, with Timbila xylophones and in the Ngeniso movement with drum (single headed closed goblet) with 4 players (-14.52102-).

- Description: Ngeniso, the entry of the dancers, and the exit of the dancers at the end of the Ngodo are the only movements in which a drum us used with the Timbila xylophones, and not every village uses drums. Some say that the loud noise of the drum spoils the music. This item could give substance to their objection, but Banguza's village the drum is preferred. Movement from the dance, with Timbila xylophones and in the Ngeniso movement with drum (single headed closed goblet) with 16 players (-14.52102-).
