Yango na mobangi (Field Card)
of International Library of African Music (ILAM), in Hugh Tracey Fieldwork Collection and the Sound of Africa Series, TR118 (1952) , 1 page(s)

Note how the song becomes faster and the pitch rises. It is an old traditional song of the Nyasa Ngoni and appears to stem from the Zulu side of their culture.
