Description / content note
-
The Sansi was fixed onto the Chigubu resonator by three point suspensions, 2 at the straining bar and 1 at the foot, all secured by bark string. The Njela (s. and pl.) reeds were made from the spokes of an umbrella and the player said that in times past the reeds used to be made of bamboo. "Although I am so quiet, Mother, I still have many troubles because of my poverty." Simple song by a man who earns part of his living by playing and singing as one of his feet is affected by leprosy and he can do no other work. Self delectative song, with Sansi mbira
