A daughter weeps for her father whom she will never meet again. Bia means 'a song' and Kpe means 'tears.' Literally -- a song of tears. These songs are sung around the body of the dead person. There is little to indicate from the style and manner of singing that they indicate sorrow or mourning. To an outsider, Zande mourning songs sound as unconcerned with death as similar songs in other African tribes.

The Zande men were found by the Belgians to be the only ones brave enough to handle and tame the wild African elephants -- young elephants are caught in the forest or open plains and trained in much the same way as Burmese elephants. The Zande cornacs are a gay lot and much of their recreation time in the forest is spent in dancing. The Narone is a circle or ring dance with the drums playing in the centre. This recording was made at Nepoko, the rest camp for sick elephants near Andudu in the northern edge of the Ituri forest, where they are cured under the supervision of M. de Medina, the renowned hunter and game warden.
