- Description
- The player has taken a Nyasa instrument instead of the local Njari. He explained he found the smaller instrument easier to play inspite of the fact that it had only half the number of notes. He claimed he had tuned it the same as the Njari but in point of fact his scale was one note short appearing to be hexatonic whereas his tribe is known to be heptatonic. The missing note is clearly situated between 212 and 260 vs and might have been approximately 234 to 238 vibrations per second. Humorous song with Mbira.
