About the book

Myrna Capp's down-to-earth interviews with 13 musicians form Zimbabwe form the basis of this thought-provoking and informative collection. These are the personal stories of Zimbabwean traditional and pop singers, mbirists, guitarists, pianists, percussionists, dancers, praise poets, jazz musicians, and even an ethnomusicologist. Female and male perspectives are equally represented, with an emphasis on keeping the true traditional music alive and reflecting the importance of improvisation. Includes a free CD sampler.
