Traditional Music of Zimbabwe: Mbira Duo Concert and Meditation Evening

The Mbira is an instrument that originated with the Shona people of Zimbabwe. In its conception it was regarded as a sacred technology utilised in ceremonial contexts, offering a medium through which the human and ancestral realms could communicate. Though the context of Mbira playing has changed through the passage of time, when played thoughtfully and in accordance with the musical tradition from whence it came it holds still the power to heal and invoke a meditative mood through its distinctive and unusual tonal arrangements.

The Revillaging Project presents mbira duo Djulz Chambers (Soul Circles Drumming) and Cameron Norton (Art of Living) in concert. We invite you to relax with traditional songs of ancient times in the company of your local community’s spiritual presence. Following the musical offering, we will share in a period of semi-guided meditation and conclude the evening with chai and discussion. We look forward to welcoming you into the space.
