- Description: "Men, rejoice and honour the flag of our King George!" This is the kind of African dance tune in which the qauntity of noise is more important than the quality of its production. The style of singing appears to be influenced by the songs usually taught in schools and cannot be said to be wholly indigenous in form. The women first sing and then circle around to the sound of the drums. They shake to and fro side to side, their fronts counter balancing their sterns in opposite motion. The comparative simplicity of the music and drumming indicates the subtle influence of school (foreign) music teaching. Kasodo dance song for women and girls with Barrel drum, double heade, laced, and a tin (-12.16-) and whistles (-11.515-)

- Description: The Kalimba, they say, is a comparatively new to this district and people. They have recently begun to learn it from the Nsenga at Fort Jameson where this player had gone to work on a Europen farm there in 1922. "You always call me 'dear' with your mouth, but what kind of 'dear' is this if you do not let me sleep with you?" This is a pleasnt little melody set against an appropriate accompaniment. The player's old voice does not do his own melody credit, as so often happens among folk singers, and it should be performed by a younger person to bring out its virtue. Love song with Kalimba Mbira (nine notes)
