Traditionally since ancient times when Mbira’s played in a circle or in a jam session the Mbira’s would be of the same tuning.
Garikai is hailed as the first in Zimbabwe to explore mbira in different tunings played as an ensemble, To have high low Mbira voices while the main melody is played by the mid-voiced mbira. A truly unique and magical musical exploration
