Music is a core element of the Mangho Dance, as a combination of folk rhythmic tunes and melodic lyrics frames the performance. The music, in most cases, incorporates traditional songs that recite folk tales, tribal history, and the day-to-day life of the people. The melodies motivate the dance movements, making the activity interesting for the participants and audience alike. Music not only serves as entertainment but also as a form of narrative, keeping the history and ethics of the tribe alive through generations.
