- 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. Chianda dance song woth Sangu rattles, leg rattles held in the hand and gourds on sticks
