Description

Kariga mombe (“Undefeatable”, literally “One who can knock cattle to the ground”) is traditionally the first piece a Shona mbira student learns from the over 1,000-year old repertoire played in ceremonies. This second collection of recordings of this piece in nyamaropa tuning (the first was this) features many tracks with hosho (gourd rattles), and a wide variety of different vocals, as well as widely varying mbira styles. There is also a collection of mavembe (also known as gandanga) tuning versions of Kariga mombe. [Total time: 77:05]
