Mbira/Marimba Music

Mbira is a general term for a family of instruments called lamellophones. Many mbiras have similar construction and components, but differ in cultural uses, in the number of keys, and in the name. The mbiras are constructed of specially shaped metal keys (size and shape dependent on pitch) which are usually mounted onto a wooden soundboard, and are placed inside a calabash gourd which is used as a resonator. Most mbiras have bottle caps attached to the resonator to create the typical &timbre of African music. tracklist: 00:00 - Lora Chiorah-dye & Sukutai - Nyoka Musango 05:29 - Dumisani Maraire & Ephat Mujuru - Chemutengure 11:10 - Mbira dzeNharira - Pfugamai 20:05 - Stella Chiweshe - Mudzimu Dzoka 23:48 - Various artists - Chepembere Chepasi 33:31 - Stella Chiweshe - Sawura Wako 37:39 - Various artists - Nhemamusasa 43:44 - Hungwa - Marenje All the videos, songs, images, and graphics used in the video belong to their respective owners and I or this channel does not claim any right over them.
