Curios Lite (Tamaduni Series)

The Tamaduni Series is a collection of lightweight virtual instruments inspired by the musical traditions of East African communities. Each instrument carries a history shaped by generations of musicians, cultural practice and knowledge passed down through thousands of years.

From the delicate resonance of the Rattle Mbira to the expressive strings of the Nyatiti (Lolwe) and Adungu Harp (Elgon), these instruments connect us to ancestral wisdom and the musical languages through which communities have expressed their histories, beliefs and ways of life.

The collection features four instruments: Rattle Mbira, Adungu Harp, Nyatiti and Kihembe. Each brings its own distinctive character, inviting composers and producers to explore East African musical heritage and discover new expressions for these enduring sounds.

Designed as lite versions, the Tamaduni Series offers an accessible starting point for incorporating traditional instruments into contemporary music-making.

You can also explore a wider cabinet of musical curiosities with the complete Curios virtual instrument collection from Mila Afrika for only $20.
