  • Description: Some of the best wood for making Timbila notes, grows in the district of this Chief, Regulo Canda. His orchestra, perhaps as a direct result, has been noted for its tone quality. His district includes part of the sea coast and is covered with thick bush with many cashew nut trees. It will be noted that the spelling of the titles of the movements changes with the dialect of the district. In the west it is 'Wemiso' while further east it is 'Mwemiso'. Four movements from the Ngodo xylophone orchestral dance of Regulo Canda with 10 to 19 xylophones and 1 or 2 rattles. (-12.54-).

  • Description: "To play the 'Kalimba' is to be happy. I remember long ago when I was a small child when I thought a breast was made of bone. But my mother told me that the breast was not bone, but flesh only. I was fooled long ago, I thought the breast was bone but it is flesh only. Listen my friends, the breast is flesh only." It seems that the obvious meaning of the words is intended to serve a secondary one. Perhaps the revelation of the begining of his natural sex life. Self delectative song.

  • Description: "The singer dreamt one day of his own death and tells his mother, sister and the rest of his family about his dream." In fact, the singer Simon Sitole is repeating the words of a song heard from another man and does not refer to himself. Only the opening line was picked up. He made up the rest for himself. Wistful song with Mbira dza WaNdau
