This comprehensive volume is a revised and updated collection of essays originally featured in The Garland Encyclopedia of World Music: Volume 1, Africa (1997). It serves as a deep resource for students and researchers looking to understand how music defines identity across various African cultures. The book is organized into three distinct sections to provide a clear educational path. Part One offers an in-depth introduction to Africa, setting the stage for a broader understanding. Part Two examines specific issues and processes, including notation, oral traditions, the role of dance in communal life, and intellectual property.
