Music of the Shi People

Product Description
"Rhythmically compelling…those who are seriously interested in traditional African tribal music will find a lot to admire about Music of the Shi People." - ALL MUSIC GUIDE

Rhulinobo Elige, Joker Shamavu, Munyeno Vesoo and Bolungwe Munyeno are not professional recording artists. They were found in Lwiro, a small village in Zaire, by Japanese musicologist Dr. Tsutomu Oohashi in the 1990s, and all of them are part of the Shi branch of the Bantu tribe. All four are expressive singers who also play the distinctive likembe, which, like the kora, is an indigenous instrument among Africa’s traditional thumb pianos.
