ART MUSIC IN NIGERIA is the most comprehensive book on the works of modem Nigerian composers who have been influenced by European classical music. Relying on over 500 scores, archival materials and interviews with many Nigerian composers, the author traces the historical developments of this new idiom in Nigeria and provides a critical and detailed analysis of certain works. Written in a refreshing and lucid style and amply illustrated with music examples, the book represents a milestone in musicological research in Nigeria. Although written essentially for students and scholars of African music, this interesting book will also be enjoyed by the général reader.

Academic Paper from the year 2022 in the subject Musicology - Ethnomusicology, , course: Theatre Arts, language: English, abstract: Using the theory of remix with particular emphasis on the selective remix, this paper re-evaluates the concept of celebration in the Nigerian culture using the music, Osondi Owendi, originally sung by Osita Osadebe and remixed by Chinedu Okoli, (flavour). Findings from the evaluation show that the concept of celebration amongst individuals in the society largely depends on choice as against the popular notion which has it that the life of the African is that of perpetual celebration. This lies in the fact that the motivation to celebrate in recent times is affected by occurrences in the society which are sometimes negative. Moreover, the choice to perpetually celebrate is made depending on life situations. Thus, just like the western society, choice is also a value that should be respected and upheld. In view of the above, this paper recommends that the concept of choice should be highlighted as an important value. Again, considering the changing nature of the society, more modern artistes should adopt the indigenous forms of music and further use it to communicate the values that the Nigerian society hold in high esteem.

This volume makes a distinction between modern Nigerian art music, which evolved in the twentieth century and emphasizes Western music notation, and the previously existing art music tradition in Nigeria before the advent of missionaries in the nineteenth century. Specifically, this research examines the social, political, and cultural factors involved in the evolution and practice of art music in Nigeria.

From ancient to contemporary times, music in the area known as Nigeria has passed through different stages of transmutation. Primarily transmitted through oral means has in the last century received significant scholarly attention. Areas like folksong documentation, ethno-organological studies, popular music studies and art music have continued to feature in scholarly discourse. Societal dynamism allows room for scholarly reassessment and evaluation of aspects of Nigerian music; thus, reflecting change and continuity in the area. It is within this cusp that this book looks at contemporary trajectories in Nigerian music.
