Soprano Banza made from heart pine

“Twas a gourd, three-stringed, and an old pine stick; but when he hit it he made it speak.”

-from "Picayune Butler’s Come to Town"

“The banza belongs to the heart, and there is no stronger protection than the heart.”

-from The Banza- A Haitian story by Diane Wolkstein
