- Description
- Inhaminga is the village in Mozambique beyond the Zambezi river from this district about 100 miles away to the south and about half way to the port of Beira. The drum held horizontally between the knees, membrane facing outwards-mirliton upwards, the player sitting on the ground. By raising and lowering his legs slightly the drummer presses the open end of the drum on and off his chest. The lower notes are produced while the oriffice of the drum is off his chest. The drum which had a 7 inch membrane was 12 inches tall. The water-lizard skin was weighted with paste on the inner surface and was attached with wooden pins. Nthikwi dance with cylindrical, weighted drums and mirliton.
