- Description: The mask of the male dancer consists of a headpiece covered with sheep's wool, crowned with guibea-fowl feathers and a rag costume of sacking. The male dancer may not approach near the women hence the distance away of the singing chorus. Four drummers provide the rhythm and the assembled women sing the chorus. Kacipapa is the name of the mask in which the principal dancer dances, and gives its name to the dance itself, a ,ask dance. The masked man sings in a feigned falsetto, voice in order to hide his identity from the crowd. The names of the two drums were:- Mpanje-the tall drum; and Mbalwe the Mtiwiso for the larger and smaller goblet drums. There appear to be several versions of the Chinyau dance in central Nyasaland. Kacipapa dance song, Mask dance, danced for obsequies of a dead chief or headman with 2 goblet drums and 2 tall cylindrical drums
