The Chisanzhi Mbira is the traditional type of the district: The basket rattle is a well-made woven article with a handle; the rattles had wooden handles and an open work basket head with beer bottle tops inside. The bottle is a common percussion instrument among the Lulua and the singing gourd is the favorite instrument of women's choirs in southern Congo into which they sing, lip or hum notes related to the fundamental note of the gourd. "We are very happy in our village, we have plenty of beer and gaiety and want to be left alone." The singing gourd can be heard only toward the end of the item. The Chisanzhi Mbira is the traditional type of the district: The basket rattle is a well-made woven article with a handle the rattles had wooden handles and an open work basket head with beer bottle tops inside. The bottle is a common percussion instrument among the Lulua and the singing gourd is the favorite instrument of women's choirs in southern Congo into which they sing, lip or hum notes related to the fundamental note of the gourd. "Go! Bemba and Lamba people of the Copper Belt." The musical formula for the songs which accompany the Maringa dance can be clearly distinguished in this recording. The dance itself was not witnessed at the time of recording.
