|a Occasion: The chef's daughter M is ill, a month after having given birth. It is thought she must be possessed by evil spirits. Musicians are summoned to dispel the spirits, in an all-female performance, with some men listening on. The healing ritual includes drumming, singing and frenzied dancing over several days. After a few days M is still ill. She is sent to the nearest clinic where she appears to improve. She hates the filth and chaos in Dakoro clinic and longs for home. Back home, her health deteriorates rapidly and on 30th December she sadly dies, followed by her baby a few days later, despite the brave efforts of the household servant / wet nurse. |

|a Percussion: mortar drum (skin stretched over large millet mortar with two pestles, two women sit on the pestles to increase tension of skin) and calabash drum (calabash inverted over water contained in large basin) providing boom beat; clapping by singers. Female voices practising. The lead singer has arrived to initiate the call and response pattern in the female voices; lyrics are minimal and repetitive, as members of the chorus take turns to take centre stage and dance frenetically to exhaustion. |
