Bodies of Resonance: Musical Instruments of Zaïre - Fred und Jens Jahn München 1985
Music is one of the most valuable social assets to the people of Zaïre, it is the voice of the tribe, of its taboos, its duties, its compulsions but mainly of its continuity and the link it forms between the past and the future. In fact music is a mirror of African society. This book attempts to serve as an introduction to the vast and stimulating sphere of Zaïrian music and instruments to produce it.
