The tapping of the players heel on the ground can be heard throughout this recording. Usually the players of these lyres wear an anklet of metal iron bells on that leg. The Gisu cannot be said to be the best exponents of the lyre but they belong to the Nilotic tradition of playing. Topical song with seven string Litungu lyre and leg bells.
