  • Description: The Zande are a Sudanic people and are found along the north eastern border of the Congo and Southern Sudan. They are an active military tribe with great influence and power in the whole of this area, their young men being noted for their bravery. This tune set to a topical song is in the common Zande dance measure and a Zande audience hearing it would be likely to start their attractive dance action in spite of the accompanying instrument being a Likembe and not a xylophone which is commonly used for dancing on account of its greater volume of sound. The player tuned up his instrument begining with the tone centre 440 vs. The order of notes from left to right was:- 880, 648, 488, 360, 244, 220, 180, 324, 440, 584, 720, 292 vs. Topical song with 2 Ekembe, 12 note Likembe Mbiras.
