  • Description: The music for the Zande round dance. All the dancers perform the same steps in unison, short quick steps to and fro, turning into file and then facing inwards again, gradually moving around in an anti-clockwise direction. The enthusiasm of the Zande men and women for their Kponingbo xylophone dance has to be experienced to be fully appreciated. The dancers are caught in the swirl of the music and compel sympathetic action from everyone within earshot. The tuning of the xylophone was:- 976, 880, 784, 672, 584, 488, 440, 392, 336, 292, 244 vs. Zande dance with Kponingbo xylophone, 11 loose notes on 2 banana stalks, and hand bells.
