  • Explore African Immigrant Musical Traditions with Your Students Recommended for Grade Levels 5 and Up
    Explore African Immigrant Musical Traditions with Your Students Recommended for Grade Levels 5 and up Teacher Preparation / Goals African immigrant musical traditions are as rich and varied as the many languages and cultures of Africa. There are many different reasons for their formation; to explore new influences, to reshape older practices, or to maintain important traditions from the homeland. In these reading and activities students will learn about the African immigrant musical traditions found in the Washington, D.C. area. Special programs held after school and during the weekend and summer have been initiated to teach children more about their culture through the medium of music and dance. In the African immigrant community, music and dance groups immerse the students in the culture of their ancestors’ homeland. Some of these groups have been here for many years and are an important part of the community. Many African-born parents value these programs because they fear that their American-born children may be losing their heritage. In preparation for the lesson read the attached articles, "African Immigrant Music and Dance in Washington, D.C." and "Nile Ethiopian Ensemble: A Profile of An African Immigrant Music and Dance Group." See what you can find out about the musical traditions to be found in your area, and not just those performed by African immigrants, but by others as well. For example, when you start looking, you may find a Korean group or a group from the Czech Republic. If possible, visit a performance of a music or dance group and talk to the teachers or directors of the group.

  • Redefining Ghanaian Highlife Music in Modern Times
    American Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences Research (AJHSSR) 2020 American Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences Research (AJHSSR) e-ISSN :2378-703X Volume-4, Issue-1, pp-18-29 www.ajhssr.com Research Paper Open Access Redefining Ghanaian Highlife Music in Modern Times Mark Millas Coffie (Department of Music Education/ University of Education, Winneba, Ghana) ABSTRACT: Highlife, Ghana's first and foremost acculturated popular dance music has been overstretched by practitioners and patrons to the extent that, presently, it is almost impossible to identify one distinctive trait in most of the modern-day recorded songs categorised as highlife. This paper examines the distinctive character traits of Ghana's highlife music, and also stimulates a discourse towards its redefinition for easy recognition and a better understanding in modern times. Employing document review, audio review, interviews, and descriptive analysis, the paper reveals that the instrumental structure, such as percussion, guitar, bass, and keyboard patterns, is key in categorising highlife songs. The paper, however, argues that categorising modern-day recorded highlife songs based on timeline rhythms and drum patterns alone can be confusing and deceptive. The paper, therefore, concludes that indigenous guitar styles such as the mainline, yaa amponsah, dagomba, sikyi, kwaw, ᴐdᴐnson among others should be the chief criterion in recognising and categorising modern-day recorded highlife songs. KEYWORDS: Category, Highlife, Modern-day, Recognition, Timeline rhythm, Indigenous guitar styles I. INTRODUCTION Highlife music, one of the oldest African popular music forms originated from the Anglophone West African countries such as Ghana, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and Liberia. However, the term highlife was coined in Ghana around the 1920s (Collins, 1994).

  • 106 Operational Arrangement of Rhythm in Nigerian
    106 OPERATIONAL ARRANGEMENT OF RHYTHM IN NIGERIAN REGGAE SONGS Ikenna Emmanuel Onwuegbuna Department of Music University of Nigeria, Nsukka Abstract Certain elements are globally accepted as intrinsic commonalities in the phenomenon of sound. Such elements as rhythm, pitch, timbre, and duration when consciously or subconsciously manipulated distinguish the musical sound from the rest. Nigerian popular music—especially the highlife genre—is an acculturative product of the folk music of the traditional environment. The recently renewed scholarly interest in the rhythmic languages of African music has unveiled the centrality of rhythm as the distinctive element of relationship between the Nigerian popular and folk music types.As the argument on the musical value of popular music persists, this scholarly presentation relied on descriptive and analytical methods to show the dominating place of rhythm in the creative rationalization in Nigeria’s reggae songs of the 1970s and ’80s. Keywords: Rhythm, Nigerian popular music, functional, reggae rhythm, song structure Introduction Why is it that Afro-reggae’s biggest exponents come from West Africa? What is/are there in reggae that it quickly found a point of anchorage in Africa? Is it possible that there are similarities between the two Caribbean Island’s calypso and reggae styles and the predominant popular style of West Africa, the highlife? It has been reported that the early stages of Western influence on the popular music of West, East, and Central Africa came from the Caribbean. While calypso, reggae and rumba represent the Caribbean influential styles; highlife, soukous, and makossa remain the most enduring of the styles performed in these sub-regions of Africa (Collins, 1992; Waterman, 2012).

  • A World of Music Playlist
    A World of Music Playlist World Music Day is an annual celebration on the 21st June to honour amateur and professional musicians alike. To mark this event, we have prepared a list of a selection of compilation CDs of music from around the world and which are available in Cape Town libraries. We would like to introduce you to the incredible variety of music that exists on our planet. The Cape Town Library Service holds thousands of compact discs and the lists below are just a small representation of the many compact discs that are available in our libraries. Apart from the thousands of recordings by specific artists, there are over 200 compilation CDs of so-called World music at various public libraries in Cape Town that feature music from all parts of the globe. To celebrate the development of music culture everywhere we encourage you to explore our music collections. So-called World Music is a multi-genre field that includes a wide range of modern and traditional music from all around the world. Several record companies have specialised in bringing African and World music to a wider audience and probably the best-known and most prolific of these labels are Putumayo and the Rough Guides which feature heavily in the list below. Well-known genres of World Music include such diverse styles of music as salsa, samba and tango from Latin America, reggae and calypso from the Caribbean, Cajun, Zydeco and native American music from North America, Makossa, Afrobeat and the desert-blues from Africa, Indian classical music and Mongolian folk music from Asia, as well as, flamenco, klezmer and Romani music from Europe and the Balkans.

    Mbalax: Cosmopolitanism in Senegalese Urban Popular Music Timothy Roark Mangin Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Timothy Roark Mangin All rights reserved ABSTRACT Mbalax: Cosmopolitanism in Senegalese Urban Popular Music Timothy Roark Mangin This dissertation is an ethnographic and historical examination of Senegalese modern identity and cosmopolitanism through urban dance music. My central argument is that local popular culture thrives not in spite of transnational influences and processes, but as a result of a Senegalese cosmopolitanism that has long valued the borrowing and integration of foreign ideas, cultural practices, and material culture into local lifeways. My research focuses on the articulation of cosmopolitanism through mbalax, an urban dance music distinct to Senegal and valued by musicians and fans for its ability to shape, produce, re-produce, and articulate overlapping ideas of their ethnic, racial, generational, gendered, religious, and national identities. Specifically, I concentrate on the practice of black, Muslim, and Wolof identities that Senegalese urban dance music articulates most consistently. The majority of my fieldwork was carried out in the nightclubs and neighborhoods in Dakar, the capital city. I performed with different mbalax groups and witnessed how the practices of Wolofness, blackness, and Sufism layered and intersected to articulate a modern Senegalese identity, or Senegaleseness. This ethnographic work was complimented by research in recording studios, television studios, radio stations, and research institutions throughout Senegal. The dissertation begins with an historical inquiry into the foundations of Senegalese cosmopolitanism from precolonial Senegambia and the spread of Wolof hegemony, to colonial Dakar and the rise of a distinctive urban Senegalese identity that set the proximate conditions for the postcolonial cultural policy of Négritude and mbalax.

Created by Fela Anikulapo-Kuti (1938-1997), the genre blends scathing anti-establishment lyrics with Yoruba traditional music and Western forms, particularly jazz. Fela’s ideological dictum: “Music is the Weapon of the Future,” encapsulates his view of music as an oppositional tool, his enactment of which led to frequent violent confrontations with the Nigerian state. Throughout his lifetime, Fela held hegemonic sway over afrobeat’s stylistic and ideological trajectories. However, following his death, the genre has witnessed a global upsurge with protégés emerging in New York City, San Francisco, Paris, London and other cultural capitals of the world. In my dissertation, I chronicle afrobeat’s transnational networks and discuss processes of stylistic and ideological affiliation through which such networks have emerged.
