- Description
- A strange dance in which the dancers move their necks forward and backward like a chicken walking. The sung music is not easily followed at first until the drums between them simplify the ensemble with their clear crossed rhythms, the one (Kachisi) maintaining the ground rhythm. "Go, go to Mpili where there is an affair starting up between Duri and Diki." Ilala dance with two drums (Mudewa and Kachisi).
