- Description
- The praise song for an old Chief, Runobya, who lived, they say some 200 years ago. In this song the sound of the body of the Zither vibrating against the external resonator, upturned gourd or wooden bowl, can be heard. This deep noted Nanja is tuned:- 176, 160, 144, 136, 124, 106 vs. The seveth note was not well in tune as it was too low for the weight of the string to sound properly. Praise song with Nanga trough zither.
