- Description
- The Tumbuka songs sung by these people of mixed Ngoni and descent are quite distinctive and unlike the usual Ngoni songs. Each one is sung in a separate and clearly defined mode. "All this pounding for nothing! What else can I do to please my man?" Note the constant rise in pitch with each verse, apparently caused by the sharpening of the last note in each stanza in keeping with the mode. Pounding song with mortar and 2 pestles
