- Description: "So many people have been born, so many people have died. Now all my folk are finished. So who will keep me company when I die?" This song with its antiphonal call and answer is typical of the style of the majority of folk songs of the Chokwe heard on the mines. This kind of performance is most difficult to record effectively for several reasons. Chianda dance song woth Sangu rattles, leg rattles held in the hand and gourds on sticks

- Description: "Black cloth may not be worn by a woman who is about to have a child, she may use any other coloured cloth but not black." Such simple sentences revealing local etiquette are quite enough to inspire a local dance song. The Chokwe are more renowned for their beautiful chip carving than for their music, much of it sung in organum.
