- Description: The scale of these two instruments is not clear from these examples. It would appear to be heptatonic in one case and hexatonic or even pentatonic in the order. The fact that an adequate number on intervals exist in the lower octave and are not complete in either, argues an ablity to think heptatonically. The scale was as follows;- 404, 344, 308, 296, 252, 236, 202, 180, 160, 118, 101, 90. Bitanda kakunda dance with two Chizanshi box mbira, 2 basket rattles, whistle and hand clapping.

- Description: "Mugogo" is the name of the smaller drum. "Lwendenda mintanda mukaintu Mulongo, maweli, maweli." "I love a woman called Mulongo, and because I travel so much I never have time to see her." The playing of the stick rhythms is a speciality of the Tonga. A number of men, in this case three, take a short stick each apiece, and taps out a simple rhythm which fits into the rhythms tapped by the others. The result is a complex syncopation. most difficult to analyse. The sticks may be tapped on any convenient object, such as a log of wood-in this case on the body of a drum which was not being used for this dance. Bugogo party dance with sticks and 1 small Gogogo drum beaten by hands.
