Mozambique's Mingas on the challenges local musicians face

Elisa Domingas, popularly known as Mingas, is one of Mozambique's top singers.

Her career has spanned more than 40 years and her music is a fusion of rhythms of the Chope people of Southern Mozambique and various African sounds.

She has collaborated with major African musicians, including Angelique Kidjo and Hugh Masekela.

Mozambique has just been celebrating 40 years of independence, and when BBC Africa's Sophie Ikenye met her, she started by asking her if the country today is what she imagined it would be.
