African Drum and Dance Ensemble Performs at the Ohio County Library

October 13, 2021 By Music Admin

The West Liberty University African Drum & Dance Ensemble, directed by Dr. Mitch Greco, performed during “Lunch With Books” at the Ohio County Public Library this past week. They used instruments of the Ga ethnic group of southern Ghana, a unique music-culture that fuses idiophone timeline instruments (gankogui double-bell and axatse rattle) with drums played with your hands (jembe and kpanlogo). Attendees experienced the participatory, improvisatory and energetic nature of the music-culture through singing, clapping, drumming and dancing.
