A collection of early singles by the renowned Zimbabwean Mbira maestro and a true African music icon, Stella Chiweshe. The songs were mostly recorded in the 1970s, during the buildup to the Chimurenga revolution, and were only ever released in Stella's home country. Stella's album <i>Kasahwa: Early Singles</i> offers a fascinating introduction to the world of Mbira, with the term not only referring to the instrument, but also to a musical genre - and on a much wider level, to an entire culture and deeply spiritual lifestyle at the core of the young Zimbabwean nation. <i>Kasahwa</i> is a collection of impossible-to-find early seven inches, eight cuts spanning the period from 1974 to 1983 and representing Mbira in its purest form. None of these songs has been released outside of Africa so far.
