Description

In 1969, Beauler Dyoko broke the gender barrtier to become the first woman mbira player published on records in Zimbabwe. Her funky rhythmic feel on the mbira, and lovely singing voice, have made her popular for generations, leading both her mbira group and mbira-centered electric band. She mixes traditional lyrics with her own (often feminist) ones. This casual recording, made at her home on 29 January 1991, includes traditional mbira pieces, and Dyoko’s own Zimbabwe pop-style songs. [Total time: 86:50]
