Mbiras for sale
Newton Gwara is probably one of
the least appreciated mbira makers. Because of his reputation as one of Zimbabwe’s
premier mbira vocalist, little is known about his ability to make mbira. His instruments are extremely predictable in sound and
recognizably consistent. His range of definition spans the entire soundboard with ear piercing clarity
on the highest notes – something that is very difficult for some mbira makers to achieve.
Newton's instruments sell out very quickly.
