- Description
- It is usual for semi-professional entertainers of this kind to keep up running patter of amusing remarks and scandal to the traditional airs played on the Njari in the background. Like many other players of this instrument Manyoni Zhou calls himself "The player of Mbira". The two musicians come from neighbouring districts, Zhou from Chilimanzi and Mashoko from Buhera, the district in which the Njari originated about 1760 A.D. Topical song with two Njari Mbira, one with 33 notes and one with 31 notes.
