By 'the Nguni' is meant the peoples along the SE coast of Africa, who are known as Xhosa, Zulu, Swati. On this album we hear unaccompanied groups singing with great vocal power, strength of melody, richness of harmony, and intimate songs with music bows, some examples of western instruments readily adopted and the seemingly natural step to an own jazz style.
