Hera: "James Kamwaza's Hera"
Tuning:
Sekuru Katoro tuning
Reference Key:
E (closest chromatic pitch)
Key Count:
29
Maker:
James Kamwaza
Made in:
2007
Comments:
Recorded June 16, 2023 at Chaka Chawasarira's place in Chitungwiza, when James was visiting.
James explains that he made this Hera in 2007 in his former "original" tuning, but changed it in 2019 when he dreamt some songs from his Sekuru Katoro who died long back. He's happy with the new tuning and uses it for all new Hera that he's making now.
