1933 Umteteli 11 Nov. in D. B. Coplan Urbanization Afr. Performing Arts (typescript) (1980) 247 The ‘marabi’ dances and concerts, and the terrible ‘jazz’ music banged and wailed out of the doors of foul-smelling so called halls are far from representing real African taste.

1941 W. N. B. Nhlapo in Bantu World 15 Mar. 9 The Jazz Maniacs..were regarded as a ‘marabi’ or ‘Tsaba-Tsaba’ band.

1946 P. Abrahams Mine Boy (1954) 108 They would relax and dance till daybreak at some maraba, egged on by the thumping noise of a broken-down piano.

1958 Time 16 June 37 In the dusty streets urchins rock to the penny-whistle's fast kwela beat; in the shabby speakeasies, women shuffle to its slower marabi rhythm.

1973 M. Dikobe Marabi Dance i. 2 George..was the pianist at the Marabi parties run by Ma-Ndlovu which were very popular but not favoured by respectable people.

1985 Learn & Teach No. 3. 30 Wilson Silgee was of my old days... He was also of the Marabi Period.

1989 Reader's Digest Illustr. Hist. S. Afr. 358 The heart of marabi was its music—a throbbing blend of Christian spirituals, Negro rags, Boer vastrap..and traditional rural rhythms and harmonies. But marabi was not only about music. Other vital components were home beer-brewing, weekend shebeen parties and drinking skokiaan and isiqatavika (‘kill me quick’) in order to forget the drabness of life in urban ghettos.

1992 Jazz No. 12. 56/2 The learned elements of style and arrangement are applied to indigenous material, such as the repetitive marabi progressions that would flow through ‘township jive’ into the sax-dominated instrumentals of the Seventies and Eighties.
