  • Description: These Konjo people live in the foothills of the eastern flank of the Rwenzori Mountains. Their gardens and small huts may be seen from below right up into the cloud level precariously perched on the steep sides of the ever green slopes. The dancers girate in a circle, each man with a single pipe. The song refers to the February ripening of the maize crop. The flutes do not appear to be very accurately tuned, but the players were content with them as they were. Malenge flute dance song for men and women with Ilenga flute ensemble, three conical drums, laced, single and played with sticks.
