- Description
- The Lesiba is a wind blown stringed instrument, mostly played by herd boys as they herd their cattle on the hills. It consists of a slightly bent stick of abour 36-40 long. Along one side is strained a string, sometimes of horse hair or sinew, to one end of which is attached a section of fowl's quill. This is held in place by placing it between small double wedges held firmly in a small hole drilled into that end of the stick. Self-delectative song with Lesiba stick zither with quill.
