Description: "The train it goes with fire, it goes with steam, it goes with light and it goes with water." This piece was composed by Mate when he left his home near the headquaters of the Zambesi and walked across to Livingstone where he saw and boarded his first train which took him to a job in Bulawayo. He was awarded 3rd prize for this item in the 1953 Osborn Award for the best African musician of the year. Topical song with Kathandi Mbira, with 14 notes and external resonator
