Zimbabwean Music

Zimbabwe has a very distinct modern music style – it is very African but can be identified as Zimbabwean!  We have traditional music too – Mbira’s and Marimba’s are traditional instruments.  Both when played by people who know how to play them are amazingly beautiful to listen to.  Google these instruments and see what you come up with!
