- Description: The mirliton of this instrument was broken. The scale may be Hexatonic. The Kalebwe clan are reported to have aggressive tendencies. A complex interplay of several rhythms with the Chisazhi acting as a gourd, although once the singers get going the sound of the instrument is lost. The clapping appears to follow the same basic rhythm found all over Southern Congo, in which a measure of sixteen pulses is accented as follows:- //1, 3, 5, 7, /, 10, 12, 14, , // or more usually // 1, 3, 5, 78, 10, 12, 14, 15, //. In this part of Africa the leader often starts and stops his men by the cry "A,,,r,r,r,r." Malemba song after funeral with Chisazhi Likembe
