Description: Note how the opening Cadenza is a brief summary of the main musical ideas to be treated in the body of the work (Chiriri movement). The woman who ululates in this piece used to take a shield and dance with the men in her young days, an unusual practice but done on rare occassions as the Ngodo is essentially an athletic dance for men only. Orchestral dances with Timbila xylophones.
