- Description: The leader of this Timbila Orchestra is a well known player and composer, Hafu Kumbani, who has a large number of new Timbila tunes to his credit. The title Bandametu womgeniso appears to be commonly used by the eastern rather than the western Chopi. The Chopi clans which live to the east of the main body of the tribe of the Inhambane District and to speak a distinctive dialect. Those who know the Chopi well, claim that this can also be detected in the style of their plyaing and dancing and in the tunings of their Timbila xylophones. Regulo Nyankowango is considered to be one of the minor chiefs under Regulo Mikumbi of the Inharrime District. Living as they do to the east of the central Chopi, their dialect is distinctive and influenced by the GiTonga of the Inhambane District. Movement from the Ngodo xylophone orchestral dance of Regulo Nyankowongo with 14 xylophones, 2 rattles and one horn.

- Description: This is the Njari version of the famous "Ilanga la Shona" which became so popular when first sung in Bulawayo in about 1946. Several versions in different languages have appeared since then. The original was sung to the guitar and this setting to the traditional instrument is particularly interesting. The Karanga or 'Shona', as opposed to the Nguni speaking Ndebele of the South west of the country, do not use the letter 'L' but change it to 'R'. Topical song ith Njari (Mbira).
