The name means "Joy" in Shona, the language spoken by the originators of this music in Zimbabwe. Mostly traditional mbira pieces rearranged for marimba, as well as some more contemporary tunes associated with the independence movement, the music is happy, fun to play polyrhythmic parts that fit together like a puzzle.
