Abstract

I found the mbira to be an important instrument in Angola, where it occurs in at least four varieties. Generic names in Angola usually belong to the -SANZHI group. The -SANZHI area has to be widely extended. It covers all Angola and the north-eastern part of the Okavango district in South West Africa.
