"In 1969 [the author] chanced to encounter a Mozambican labor migrant, a miner in Transvaal, South Africa, tapping a cipendani, a mouth-resonated musical bow. A comparable instrument was seen in the hands of a white Appalachian musician who claimed it a part of his own heritage" (from the back cover)...prompting the author to delve into this fascinating topic.
