Traditional music of the Tanbura/African Harp/rababa as played by Yaunis Andindi. In the US for eleven years, he left his native Nuba Mountain home in Sudan as A REFUGEE. He is working to pass the musical traditions on to another generation in his Central Nebraska Nuba Moro Community. (As a videographer, I must apologize for the intermittent sound of a smoke detector we couldn’t silence)

Yaunis, I am very encouraged by seeing your homemade tamburas (I call the rababa either krar, simsimiyya or tambura, to me a rababa is a single-string violin). This weekend, I made one from a gallon metal motor oil can and some wooden poles. It is strong but the violin tuning pegs I have are not working well because the strings are turning the pegs under the pressure.
I'd like to order a rababa from you. If you have the time, get in touch with me.
