  • Description: One of the royal bands, the flautist, failed upon a certain occasion in their musical duties at the Kabaka's Lubili (palace). They were condemned to death but they pleaded with the Kabaka for leniency as the people of the village from which they came, Bira, had once saved the Kabaka's son, a service which had in the first instance earned them the honour of becoming the royal flautists. The Kabaka (King) forgave them and set them free. This story is the subject of the lyre behind the drum tune here presented. Six drummers play these 15 drums. Four the main set of 12 drums, and two others the three bass drums. The melody of the tune is well brought out both at the beginning and the end of the performance. Drum tunes. Set of 15 Entenga tuned conical drums, laced, closed, single.
