Traditional Dance Rhythms of Ghana by Francis Kofi & Paul Neeley

Performed/recorded in Ghana, West Africa.  Book includes background/contextual information and transcriptions of drum ensemble parts.  Recordings are approx. 90 minutes in length.  Music represented includes Atsia (Ewe), Kpanlogo (Ga) and Kinka (Ewe) among many other styles.

This excellent book also provides a historical overview into the drum history of Africa.  The book’s twofold use, as an instruction book and a history book, makes it quite valuable.“  (Percussive Notes)
