SUPPORT MBIRA EDUCATION IN ZIMBABWE

Caution Shonhai's mbira students play!
2 ways to donate to the Mbira in Zimbabwe Schools Program:

Remember you can also see albums by tuning or ensemble type (for example: 2 mbiras no vocals)
VIDEO LESSONS, MBIRAS, DEZES, HOSHO & MORE
Browse new video lessons to expand your repertoire (and more coming!).
Deze resonators, hosho (all sizes) and magavhu (leg rattles) are back in stock!
Lots of mbiras in many tunings and sizes – your purchases directly support Zimbabwean mbira makers. Our stock changes constantly as shipments arrive from Zimbabwe, and we do special orders of mbira types/tunings/sizes not shown or out of stock.
