  • Description: Composed by the good player and maker of Timbila at the time working at the Robinson mine in Johannesburg. Hi is frequently called upon from all over Chopiland to compose new tunes for the Timbila orchestras, like the famous Katini wa Nyamombe Zavala, who died in 1948. This Mzeno was played in the absence of the composer. Chambini was already an outstanding player and composer of promise and by 1963 was leading performer of the Zavala district. His compositions lack the clarity of melody of either Katini or Komukomu, but are much appreciated by Chopi players. Orchestral dance with Timbila xylophones.

  • Description: This famous song compsed by Katini of Zavala's village is here played by the Ngodo of Zandamela, led by Sancho Nyangele from Cabo Mahamba's village. The original version of the lyric was written in my book 'Chopi musicians' and only a few words have been changed, such as, 'Ucisika msaho' instead of 'Ucisika timbila' in the second verse. The composer, Katini, had died the previous year (1948) but his songs were so appreciated by the whole tribe that several of the village orchestras played his music. One still hears an occasional item of his 1963, fifteen years after his death. Orchestral dance with 28 Timbila xylophones.

  • 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.

  • Description: This Ngodo of Zavala's village was played and danced in the year following the composer Katini's death. It had been composed by him mostly during the months when he felt himself to be slowly dying of tuberclosis and was fast losing his strenght but never his passion for his Timbila music. The leadership of the village orchestra was taken over by his son, Katinyane, assisted by two other villagers, Hafu wa Maba and Pondekane. In time new compositions replaced those of the old master. The opening numbers of this Ngodo are not up to the old standard but the Mzeno, Mtsumeto and final Chiriri show clearly the stamp of Katini. The first three Msitso have not been included in this disc for lack of space. Orchestral dance.
