- Description
- All the people moving anti-clockwise around the three drums. The opening of the Sibewa movement illustrates the method of starting a pipe dance and the difficulty they experience in the initial fitting in of the various pipe parts. Once the third player came in, in between the other two, the music came alive and all joined in with a will. "Up there where we were born, the mealies are finished so we will eat wheat. Up there where we carry baskets the mealies are finished and we will eat corn." Initiation song and pipe dance, with 4 metal pipes and 3 drums Moropa o muyana and Moropa o mkula, 1 bushbuck horn and 1 kudu horn
