  • 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: Some of the best wood for making Timbila notes, grows in the district of this Chief, Regulo Canda. His orchestra, perhaps as a direct result, has been noted for its tone quality. His district includes part of the sea coast and is covered with thick bush with many cashew nut trees. It will be noted that the spelling of the titles of the movements changes with the dialect of the district. In the west it is 'Wemiso' while further east it is 'Mwemiso'. Four movements from the Ngodo xylophone orchestral dance of Regulo Canda with 10 to 19 xylophones and 1 or 2 rattles. (-12.54-).
