- Description: These horns, Makondere, are made of horn and of calabash gourds combined, bound together with skin (mostly cows tail) to keep the joints tight. They are cut open across the small end where a finger hole makes two notes possible on each horn. The mouthpiece is cut rectangularly on the side of the horn near the small end. These Makondere horn bands are now played upon special occasions at the chief's place. In the old days, they say, they were played after fighting when they came to report to the chief how they had fared. Victory song, after fighting with Makondere side blown horns, 1 conical laced drum (-14.22303-), 1 cylindrical, footed, pegged drum (14.01101-).
