  • Description: This Mdindo is one of the five movements of the Ngalanga dance for young Chopi boys. They follow an abbreviated pattern of the senior dance, the Ngodo, but with several distinctive characteristics such as the liberal use of drums. The movements in this case were:- 1. Msitso, 2. Ngeniso, 3. Ndano, 4. Mdindo, 5. Msitso wo Gwitisa. In the song which accompanies this movement the Chief Machatini is said to have given orders that the Ngalanga should not be danced to during the week. The young boys did not obey him so he was very angry, called them together and whipped their leader. The song was subsequently composed about this painful event. Dance song for Ngalanga dance, young peoples dance, with 3 treble Timbila xylophones, and three drums (-14.41-).

  • Description: Although this and the recording is very thin, it represents three genuine styles of Chopi women's songs and has been included for that reason in spite of the poor tone quality of the recording. Chopi women have a musical life of their own, composing and singing their own songs without the assistance of the menfolk. They have a great variety of songs most of which reflect their own personal thoughts, their troubles and enjoyments, their case for their sons and daughters, and the stresses and strains of their daily lives. Lament for dead Chief Machatini.

  • Description: This is said to be the best song ever composed by Sancho Nyamchungele. The Chopi of Zandamela consider this song excellent both in melody and lyric. It refers to the scattering of Chopi to the mines and other places away from their country when they go off to work. When they sing their song they feel deeply moved by both words and music, they say. The lyric is original, but the melody is very like one of the Mzeno composed by Komukomu of Banguza's village. Orchestral dance with 28 Timbila xylophones.
