Music in Zimbabwe is often sacramental, and in no case is this more true than where the mbira is concerned. Muchena is one of a handful of women who play this instrument resembling a thumb piano. Together with her band Muri ko Muchena, she has been performing since the age of five. Deeply concerned to preserve the sacrality surrounding the mbira, Muchena will not perform in Zimbabwe's beer halls, reserving her music for a more sober audience. ~ Leon Jackson, All Music Guide
