GCCCD Excursions in World Music Musical Traditions & Social Systems Discussion
Need help with my History question – I’m studying for my class.
Most traditional musical traditions in Sub-Saharan Africa reflect the social structure of the people who create it. Societal structure can vary greatly between different ethnic groups. Compare and contrast the social systems of the hierarchical Mande of West Africa and the egalitarian BaMbuti pygmies of the Congo region. How are these different social systems reflected in the musical traditions of the Mande and BaMbuti?
