  • OUR MBIRA MAKER: Wamkanganise NaGaadza

    Our mbiras are made by Wamkanganise NaGaadza, who has been making beautiful mbira of all styles since 2008. Here are his thoughts on the art of making mbira: 

    “The art of making the mbira instrument requires persistence for perfection, precision, attention to detail, mindfulness, a sense of beauty and commitment. There is a mixture of three trades in one, carpentry, metal fabrication, and a musical soul; thus, mbira making falls between art and engineering.”
