This sounds like water dripping from a natural source after days of thirst, pure natural and nourishing.........The terrible thing is there are thousand who can play like this in Zimbabwe without any form recognition except in their villages yet this music is so universal and craved for all over the world!!!!
There is a phrase here that sounds very much like something from one of Beethoven's symphonies. It's sheer coincidence of course. I'll tell you all which one it is in a day or two. Of course this is both beautiful and fascinating. This music uses the same melodic and harmonic language as European music. The polyrhythms are mind-blowing. So beautiful and addictive.
malcolm plumridge this is no confidence my friend. Mozart and Beethoven were Africans that’s why the music sounds similar classical music is African music along with every other music out there it’s just now been White washed.
Great, for me Mbira music is one of the best universal music. Love it, here in Mexico we have some music from Gonamombe Albert Chimedza music, jus great! African music = Gorgeous music!!!
Fantastic stuff...Hypnotising! rning to play Mbira and with the help of my close friends the likes of Bezil Makombe & Innocent Mutangadura am sure I will be a good basic player by year end!
mbira music is like life ,life in nature, very watery echoing reverberating sound yet also bright like light.like traveling on a river in a forest..so lovely
Chakahollic. Ask Albert about the Mexican artist´s who meet in Viena, we were with him in the New Crowned Hoppe, the moment of mi life!!!! All the best from Mexico!!!

It has been proven that if your brain learns the scales and every person on this planet has that ability then by listening to beautiful music you will achieve a euphoric state and relax and feel good. If however, you have been raised on trash music then you will need drugs to achieve the same feelings. Time to ditch the trash and drugs and grow into a human:)
@juglerseth This is Nhemamusasa not Marenje. If you try to sing along the words for Nhemamusasa you will find the rhythm is not that of Marenje! Priceless song in any case
Nah... you're ok, I won't thanks. Tahnks for the offer though, next time want someone living in a world of fantasy I'll give you a shout. Keep taking the pills.
Well I don't know, you can't seem to afford a full copy of 'Digital Media Converter' judging by your video you've posted on your homepage. Sounds like you're all mouth and trousers. Love the mbira btw, great sound.
+benjamin garande Probably because this is an audio record, not a video ;) If you search for "Kalimba", "Mbira" and/or "Sansula" here on YT you will find numerous performance videos as well as instructional ones, including tutorials. Of course there are also many websites to be explored - good luck!

Could not have said it better
I know im not the first to notice, but how does this evoke the feeling of rain or dropping water so clearly?
Thank you Mr. Maurice White for bringing this beautiful sound to Earth Wind and Fire and for sharing it with the rest of the world.
This song is called Marenje from the album Zimbabwe: Mbira Musicians and Kevin Volans Ensemble. (The link in the description is to a different album)
Thank you so much, Edgardo.

@@Pana_Ishe I believe Mozart was Austrian and Beethoven was German.
@@timothyhurn7590 Well yes that's where they lived, but I'm pretty sure Beethoven was black atleast

I adore zimbabwean music!

Bezil is a genius ! This is among the few pieces that encouraged me to pick up the Mbira. Brilliance !!
I love this music. Its calming.

This kind of music calms me down, I love it
Etrangement un rythme que j'ai déjà perçu dans la musique de chez moi.
@Chakahollic Yes, hs is a master...ask him about the Mexican Artist´s he meet in Viena, we just love his music!!
All the best from Mexico!!
This video is really nice . Also Check out zimbabwean Gospel music from Tembalami.
guilt tripper
A delicate rain through happy hands.
I think this song is: Marenje by Mhuri yekwa Muchena

Google honors the mbira instrument. 😷👍
SUPER magnifique ;-)
SO DAMN CRAZY TUNE !!
AWESOME !
thats - literally - in your hands!
this is so calming, and at the same time it makes me wild and exited.
This is music, it's nice to hear this after po po po poker face 24/7
there is no other music like it
too bad for the studio cut; i could listen to that for hours
ndatenda
que agradable musica
quite lovely!
Lots of Zimbabweans can play the Mbira, because it takes their minds off the Mbunemployment, the Mbinflation and the Mbdictator...
im getting one next time im home
My ears are like...dancing er something. O_o
@MrWerason Yeah! I would much rather listen to this than anything on the radio right now.
@juglerseth This is Nhemamusasa not Marenje. If you try to sing along the words for Nhemamusasa you will find the rhythm is not that of Marenje! Priceless song in any case
@yucayope nice! Albert taught me how to play mbira!
Makes me think of Conlon Nancarrow´s Player Piano Compositions. He probably learned a lot from this very basic and essential African style.
DE MARAVILLA
@MrWerason well i vote that its marenje btw
Is this piece called "Magonde" ("Song for the Chief")?
The piece is Marenje
woow i say
I also say its Marenje
i dont recall there being children in the lion king
❤️
Nah... you're ok, I won't thanks. Tahnks for the offer though, next time want someone living in a world of fantasy I'll give you a shout. Keep taking the pills.
Enonaka.
How are the tines tuned? I just got a 22-key Mbira made in Zimbabwe and would like to tune it just like the one played in the video. Thank you.
@MrWerason well som of them dont want recognition they want thank at there moon female god for the water or smething i read
beutifull
Well I don't know, you can't seem to afford a full copy of 'Digital Media Converter' judging by your video you've posted on your homepage. Sounds like you're all mouth and trousers.
Love the mbira btw, great sound.

Who's the artist?
