A six week workshop series introducing Mbira Dzavadzimu, a traditional Zimbabwean instrument rooted in the spiritual and musical culture of the Shona people. Led by Zimbabwean Mbira master Linos Wengara Magaya and joined by long-term fellow musician Tim Lloyd. Often called a “thumb piano”, the mbira is a far more complex and expressive instrument than this name suggests, built around interlocking parts, cyclical patterns, and layered rhythms. Group singing and call-and-response are central, creating an inclusive, social way of learning. Drop in's welcome
