- Description
- The music of the region which included, a part of north western Northern Rhodesia, Southern Congo and Angola is quite distictive on account of the melodic structure and local sense of harmony. No Bantu other than the group of tribes which inhabit this small area care for Luchazi music, rejoicing it utterly as incomprehensible. The tuning of the Chisanzhi was:- 512, 424, 388, 348, 320,276, 256 vs. The array of notes or reeds was set out four a side and the sequence of the scale was alternate from left to right. The two outside reeds being the same pitch 512 vs. This arrangement is convenient for playing the runs as heard in this recording, with alternating thumbs. Nyakasanga dance song, with Chisanzhi Mbira, of 8 notes, wax weighted, double whistle
