Description: The Gulu was played with a rubber headed beater (like the Chopi 'Tikongo') and the hand. The two Daiero were played with a pair of light sticks. The style of dancing which has persisted among the GiTonga of the Inhambane region for many decades appears to be solely the dance du ventre, performed either by men or women in which almost every possible action of the pelvic region below the waist is employed with tedious repetition. It is doubtful whether teh dance music of the GiTonga would have any attractions for other local tribes. Dance (Dance du Ventre), with 4 singing horns, Puundu, 1 Bombo Gulu bass drum abd 2 Daiero drums.
