Description

These Masvingo mbira players play interesting styles of mbira classics in both nyamaropa (tracks 1-3) and mavembe/gandanga (tracks 4-7) tunings. The long tracks give you plenty of time to enjoy their explorations of each piece. Though now in Masvingo, Mzarabani is originally from Hurungwe, and Musekiwa from Mhondoro. [Total time: 79:51]
