About
UCLA's Music and Dance of Ghana Ensemble is an ethnomusicology performance course in which students learn drumming, singing and dance from southern Ghana, including Akuapem, Akan, Ga and Ewe traditions. Players build interlocking parts on drums, bells and rattles to accompany social dances. The ensemble performs in the Herb Alpert School of Music's Spring Festival of World Music, a free concert series running since 1960; its 2026 concert on June 3 was part of the 66th festival.
