  • Ngaraya: Women and Musical Mastery in Mali
    Bulletin of SOAS, 70, 3 2007), 569±602. E School of Oriental and African Studies. Printed in the United Kingdom. Ngaraya: Women and musical mastery in Mali Lucy DuraÂn School of Oriental and African Studies [email protected] Abstract This article aims to contribute to an understanding of the evaluation of musical artistry in Africa, through Mali as a case study. The discussion focuses on the informal discourses of the occupational group of Mande artisan-musicians known as jeli pl. jeliw, jalilu), concerning the ideal of musical greatness, signified by the polysemic term ngaraya; while there is consensus about the ideal, there is much debate about who qualifies. Drawing on extensive interviews and fieldwork with leading jeliw over the past twenty years, it pays special attention to the views of and about Malian women singers, who since the 1980s have ± somewhat controversially, as explored here ± been the ``stars'' on the home scene. The article shows how local discourses challenge the widely accepted view that only men are the true masters ngaraw). Many women jeli singers jelimusow) have a special claim to ngaraya, and some also seek to position themselves within the canon, as they increasingly move into centre-stage of Malian popular culture. The importance of learning directly from senior master jeliw remains a core issue in the evaluation of ngaraya for both men and women, encapsulated in the phrase ``the true ngaraw are all at home''. Introduction An important part of any musical culture is the recognition of certain artists as being exceptional in some way. This article looks at the informal discourses of the occupational group of artisan-musicians known as jeli among the Mande peoples of West Africa, concerning the evaluation of musical greatness, known in core Mande languages as ngaraya.

  • For the Mande Bala Todd G. Martin A
    TOWARD A PEDAGOGY OF "PLAY" FOR THE MANDE BALA TODD G. MARTIN A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN MUSIC YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO APRIL, 2017 © Todd Martin, 2017 ABSTRACT A theoretical model is proposed that posits "play" as both the long-term goal of bala learning, and as the means through which the short-term steps toward that goal can best be achieved. Play is defined in two different ways. In the first sense it is an orchestrating of means and ends in which means are at the centre of interest. In this sense, play is a goal of bala learning. In the second sense, play is defined (using the framework of Applied Behaviour Analysis) as: activities that (a) are inherently reinforcing (and not inherently punishing), and (b) do not eventuate extinction, escape, or avoidance. In this sense, play is conceived as one possible means through which to achieve pedagogical goals. The case is made that owing to its intrinsic (musical) characteristics—in particular, the inherent scalability of pattern density—Mande bala music is especially well suited to a pedagogy of "play." Although the model proposed is supported by empirical evidence and has a strong rational underpinning, the model itself is not tested in the present study, but rather, is herein articulated (via illustrative case studies depicting the learning of various bala patterns through digitally mediated means—books, CDs, DVDs, etc.) An argument is built to support the notion that in comparison with traditional, immersion- based pedagogical modalities, the digital mediation of bala teaching eventuates a pedagogical loss, but that this pedagogical loss can be attenuated through a more "playful" pedagogical approach.

  • La Carrière De Bako Dagnon Est Unique : Une
    La carrière de Bako Dagnon est unique : Une collaboration de vingt ans dans les années 70 avec l’Ensemble Instrumental National et quelques enregistrements sur cassettes au début des années 90. Elle a passé la plupart des 40 ans de sa carrière à chanter pour ses mécènes. Et pourtant Bako Dagnon est une chanteuse qu’admirent les autres chanteurs. Ses chansons sont ancrées dans l’histoire et la culture Mandingue. Elles font renaître les vieilles fables et les rendent résolument contemporaines. C’est pourquoi beaucoup des célèbres artistes de la musique malienne se tournent vers Bako lorsqu’ils ont besoin de renseignements sur l’histoire du pays – un témoignage qu’elle livre avec générosité, tout comme les anciens l’ont fait pour elle. Ali Farka Touré admirait beaucoup son chant et la consultait souvent à propos de l’histoire du Mali lorsqu’il était à Bamako. Banzoumana Sissoko, « le vieux lion », l’invitait régulièrement chez lui dans les années 80 pour chanter de vieilles chansons comme Janjon. Il pleurait et lui tendait un billet de 1000 Francs Maliens. Jeli Bakari Soumano, feu le Chef des Griots du Mali, un homme extrêmement cultivé, appréciait grandement la sagesse de Bako ; elle était souvent à ses côtés lorsqu’il devait pratiquer des cérémonies rituelles. Bien qu’elle vive à Bamako depuis presque 30 ans, Bako Lorsque le producteur Sénégalais Ibrahim Sylla décide en 2003 continue à considérer son petit village natal de Golobladji, de rassembler sur le disque Mandekalu (Syllart / Discograph) comme la source spirituelle à laquelle elle retourne s’abreuver les meilleurs talents griots pour chanter les grands classiques, il dès qu’elle le peut.

  • Title: Valuing Tradition: Mali's Jeliw, European Publishers and Copyright
    This is the version of the article accepted for publication in Journal of World Popular Music Vol. 4 (1) published by Equinox Publishing: https://journals.equinoxpub.com/index.php/JWPM/issue/archive Accepted version downloaded from SOAS Research Online: http://eprints.soas.ac.uk/23968/ Title: Valuing Tradition: Mali’s jeliw, European publishers and Copyright Author: Caspar Melville, SOAS University of London The issue of how copyright works for the musical traditions of Africa has been steadily growing in importance since the 1990s, pushed to the fore by the increasing visibility of African artists in the world music market, the neoliberalisation of African economies that is pushing IP issues into the centre of state creative industry policies, the ubiquity of illegal forms of reproduction, physical and increasingly digital and the processes by which immaterial goods and cultural traditions are becoming reimagined as commodities. Recent scholarly discussions of this issue moves the debate significantly beyond the simple notion of copyright as a Eurocentric imposition on vulnerable African cultural heritage and instead considers how IP issues are addressed differentially in specific local contexts across sub-Saharan Africa. This article examines these issues in relation to how Mali‟s Mande griots (“jeliw”) work with European publishers. Based on a series of sixteen interviews with jeli musicians and European publishers and others in the world music industry, its main finding is that while it is necessary to reconsider what we mean by composition in relation to Mali‟s Jeliw and their musical practice, copyright can and is being adapted by publishers working with traditional musicians to provide much needed revenue to jeli composers and plays a role in sustaining a vital, but vulnerable, tradition.
