Description

In 1994, two master mbira players and close friends, Forward Kwenda and the (now) late Christopher Doubt Chaitezvi, were recorded playing mbira in a very relaxed context. When two masters play mbira together, anything can happen…and does! Vast changes of texture, changes of volume…you have not heard these classic mbira pieces sound like this! Fasten your seat belts. [Total time: 47:16]
