The drummers, usually accompanied by dancers, create elaborate rhythms in which every component of the ensemble plays its unique part. Traditionally, the Burundians use the Inanga zither which has eight strings to create music used in traditional dance. The drums come in various sizes and shapes, such as the "ingoma," "karyenda," and "amashako" (also called "mishale"). The "Ingoma" drum is the most important, with a deep, sonorous sound and is used to signal important events in the community.
