Educational resources on traditional African music: An annotated bibliography of contemporary offerings and suggestions for their use in the classroom

Journal/Book: J Negro Educ. 1997; 66: PO Box 311, Washington, DC 20059. Bureau Educational Research Howard Univ. 16-28.

Abstract: In their eagerness to develop proposals for curriculum and instruction, contemporary researchs and developers of resources on traditional African music often fail to understand that available resource materials must be critiqued in terms of the schools and students for whom they are primarily intended. Toward that end, this annotated bibliography was compiled to combat both the dearth of musicological resources on traditional African music and teacher-educators' lack of knowledge about these resources. It examines significant works published between 1960 and 1991 that provide information and perspectives superseding previously available instructional resources.
