表演曲目：

Jera
Jera was originally a religious music and dance of the Kparibas in Dagbon, performed before and after hunting expeditions. It is now performed by most Dagbamba villages in Northern Ghana on diverse social occasions: festivals, funerals, and for recreation after a hard day's work. The religious costume is however retained.

Bamaaya
Bamaaya, meaning, "The river (valley) is wet", is the most popular social dance drumming of the Dagbamba people of Northern Ghana. It began as a religious music and dance performance but now functions during funerals, festivals, national day celebrations and other social occasions

Sikyi
Sikyi is a recreational music and dance of the youth of Ashanti. It originated in the 1920s but became very popular around Ghana's Independence in 1957. It is performed in the vein of Kpanlongo of the Ga of Accra and Boboobo of the Central and Northern Ewe of the Volta Region of Ghana. Sikyi is seen principally at social gatherings where the youth solely express themselves in courtship. Sikyi dance is flirtatious in character. Its characteristic form is the strutting and bobbing up and down and a display of theatrical elegance

Sanga
Sanga is one of the recreational musical types of the Ashanti-Akan. Instruments used in this ensemble and their specific rhythmic motives suggest northern Ghana, Dagbamba origins. The dance may be called a "chase" -it is gay and flirtatious in character. Its characteristic form is the strutting and bobbing up and down and a display of theatrical elegance. The women dancers wear bustles to attract and the same time tease the men dancers.

African-Caribbean Party
A multiple percussion piece, which is based on Boboobo, Kpanlongo and Guagunaco dance drumming. Boboobo and KPanlongo are the most popular social dance drumming types of the Ewe and Ga of Ghana and Togo. Guaguanco is a moderate to fast style rumba. Rumba is the word used for a group of related music and dance styles in Cuba. The word is also sometimes used to refer to a Latin-influenced ballroom dance style that is completely different than authentic Cuban rumba. Rumba can also refer to an African style of pop music developed recently with Latin influences.

Axatsevu
A composition for axatsewo (gourd rattles). This piece utilizes rhythmic motives, themes and structures from traditional dances of the Ewes from Ghana, Togo and Benin. The presentation combines drumming, singing and dance.

Azagunogawo
To the African, the word "music" involves all the performing arts combined in a very systematic and organized manner as a unique public spectacle. To the African therefore, the drum, the voice and the dance body speak the same language and the individual with exceptional abilities to teach and perform all these cognate art forms is known as Azaguno, which means a "master drummer" among the Ewe people of Ghana, Togo Benin. We call ourselves Azaguno because we fall into this category of very special "master drummers". This contemporary work therefore highlights our unique name, nature and attributes. You can only see the drums dance, the body talks and the voice drum in this encounter

Fankani
A traditional ceremonial welcome performance from the Wassolon region of Guinea. Fankani also is performed at the feast of Tabaski, a full moon festival and other social occasions

Vuga Prelude
Multiple percussion piece for four bomaa, atumpan, paso, adukurogya and dawuro. This is an adaptation of the Akan court music, Fontomfrom. Fontomfrom is the most complex of all Akan musical types. It is a series of warrior dances, which are performed to show the prowess of a valiant fighter using symbolic gestures to mime combat motifs

Kassa
