Answer to Question 1

 A participatory polyphonic communitymeaning that the participants create many (poly) sounds (phonic), or independent voices, that collectively fit together to create the music.

Answer to Question 2

 After studying drumming for an extended period with his father, he was sent to learn drumming from a teaching-father. Through a period of master-apprenticeship, Mr. Lunna continued his studies of the drum with his teaching-father, Mba Ngolba. The relationship between Mr. Lunna and Mr. Nbolba was indeed like father and son, so deep that when Father Ngolba died, instead of the usual custom of burying the luna in the grave of the deceased drummer, Mr. Ngolba had insisted that Mr. Luna have his personal lunga.
