Malipenga

Malipenga is an African dance music of the Tonga people of Malawi. The dance was originated in imitations of military drills when they fought alongside the British Army in World War I.

Malipenga is common in the central and northern regions of Malawi, as in Tanzania, Mozambique, and Zambia with slight modifications. Each year in August is held a big Malipenga festival in Northern Malawi in a different town each year.
