    Research on Humanities and Social Sciences www.iiste.org ISSN 2222-1719 (Paper) ISSN 2222-2863 (Online) Vol 2, No.9, 2012 SOCIO-STYLISTIC APPROACH TO TEACHING AFRICAN DRUMS - GBEDU ENSEMBLE. OLUWASEYI KEHINDE (A.K.A Sheyi Kehnny) INSTITUTION AFFILIATION: University of Lagos E-MAIL: [email protected] ABSTRACT Black Africa possesses an infinite variety of musical instruments that is paralleled in world music history. These instruments come in various shapes and sizes. Others are made with consummate skills. African musical instruments and their extra musical functions in the society make the procedure of teaching them unique. In most schools emphasis have been laid on performance without having a systematic approach to the study of African instruments. Arguably, the organizational skills in teaching and learning procedure of Western musical instruments have made it much more comfortable for students in schools to prefer studying them to African instruments. Consequently this paper advocates the guidelines to teaching and learning of Gbedu ensemble which will serve as manual to investigating the language, structure and functionality of the instruments as historical devices and linguistic evidences. Ultimately, this paper provides a stylistic discourse on teaching methods that encompasses the application of instruments in contemporary African setting. Hence, the cynosure of this study is based on the following guidelines: 1. Historical and Sociological Traits 2. Identification of Instruments in the Ensemble 3.Significance of Gbedu drum to the society. 4. Technological Make-up of Gbedu Drums 5. Techniques of Playing each instrument in the Ensemble. 6. Maintenance of the Instruments 7. Presentation in Steps 8. Evaluation 9.

Omer Cooper J (1971) December 2010 Newsletter Cultural Heritage Resources of the New Oyo Empire, Southwestern Nigeria: Prospects for Sustainability By Titilayo O. Olukole* Abstract In this project I employed a multidisciplinary approach involving ethnographic and reconnaissance surveys to investigate, identify, and classify potential New Oyo empire sites as cultural heritage resources. The New Oyo empire was located in southwestern Nigeria about 130 km south of the Old Oyo, and 55 km north of Ibadan. Following the decline of the Old Oyo empire in 1837 the New Oyo developed and shared similarities with facets of the Old Oyo. Yet, the New Oyo empire was distinct from its predecessor as a result of environmental changes, relocation, and shifts in urbanization. My work here reveals that a number of the cultural heritage resources of Yoruba-speaking people and the New Oyo empire have not been investigated or otherwise suffer neglect.

    Gbedu As a Musical Genre in the Palace of the Oba of Lagos

    GBEDU AS A MUSICAL GENRE IN THE PALACE OF THE OBA OF LAGOS BY OLATUNBOSUN SAMUEL ATUNDAOLU B.A. (HONS) Being a Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfilment for the Master of Art in Music - in the Faculty of Arts Department of Music OBAFEMI AWOLOWO UNIVERSITY, ILE – IFE, NIGERIA. 2007 ABSTRACT The study examined gbedu as an instrumental musical genre, its origin and its functions in all its ramifications in the palace of the Oba of Lagos. This was with a view to revealing its significance as a ceremonial music in the palace of the king. This study relied immensely on oral tradition, observation and participation, as its primary source of information. Three traditional chiefs (Bajulu of Lagos, Obanikoro of Lagos and Ashogbon of Lagos), a retired gbedu artiste, two court musicians who played igbe and dundun-sekere at the palace of the Oba of Lagos, and three practicing gbedu artistes on Lagos Island were interviewed on the origin and historical background of gbedu music. Secondary material on the subject matter was consulted in the library, archives and Internet. Performances of the music were recorded, transcribed, and analyzed, using ethnomusicological theory. The findings showed that gbedu music was brought from Benin to Lagos to symbolized royalty, and could also represent the Oba of Lagos just like his staff of office. Gbedu played a significant role on ceremonial occasions and was used to welcome important dignitaries and entertain them in the king's courtyard. It aIso featured in rituals, festivals and celebrations. However, it was not devoted to any god. It was revealed that, in spite of the enormous influence of Western cultural values on the Yoruba way of life, gbedu music had been able to maintain its continuous stability and originality as part of the musical heritage in the palace of the Oba of Lagos.

    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 351 4th International Conference on Modern Management, Education Technology and Social Science (MMETSS 2019) The effect of continuous swimming on physical health Lu Yanmei1, a, Ye Huabing2, b 1Heyuan polytechnic, Heyuan, Guangdong, China 2Heyuan sports school, Heyuan, Guangdong, China [email protected], [email protected], Keywords: Swimming, Physical health, Vascular elasticity, Bone density. Abstract: Using the literature, physical fitness test, mathematical statistics and other methods, researchers carried out body test and analysis of the swimming association members who have been swimming all the year round in Heyuan City. The results showed that after annual swimming, the BMI of swimmers was slightly higher than that of all the testers, and the vital capacity and the step index were significantly improved. The grip strength was significantly higher than that of all the testers, and the other qualities were not significantly improved. The two indexes of sitting body flexion and standing on one foot with closed eyes were lower than all testers; The overall physical fitness evaluation score is superior to all testers. The overall vascular elasticity of swimmers is better than that of all testers, and the anti-atherosclerotic ability is enhanced, but the low bone mass ratio of bone density is higher than that of all the testers. The author acknowledges that it is related to the lack of weight exercise in the water, and further research is needed. 1. Introduction Swimming is a physical exercise that is good for your health. Studies have shown that swimming has a good influence on body shape, cardiopulmonary function and various sports qualities [1-4].
