Chartwell Shorayi Dutiro (1957 – 2019) was a Zimbabwean musician, who started playing mbira when he was four years old at the protected village, Kagande; about two hours drive from Harare, where his family was moved by the Salvation Army missionaries during the Chimurenga.
Even though the missionaries had banned traditional music, he learned to play from his brother and other village elders.
As a teenager Chartwell moved to the capital, Harare, and became saxophonist with the Salvation Army band.
[1] Chartwell had academic qualifications in music, including a degree in Ethnomusicology from SOAS in London where he also taught for many years.
He also has several recordings on CD in which he plays with the band Spirit Talk Mbira: Ndonga Mahwe (1997), Nhimbe (1999), Dzoro (2000), and Taanerimwe (2002).
