I’ve composed an instrumental inspired by traditional Nigerian music.

Traditional Nigerian music is a vibrant and diverse genre that reflects the rich cultural tapestry and heritage of Nigeria’s many ethnic groups. Emerging from lively villages, bustling markets, and age-old ceremonies, it blends folk melodies, rhythmic drumming, praise singing, and storytelling passed down through generations. This genre features iconic acoustic instruments such as the talking drum, djembe, shekere, kalimba, and kora, each adding a unique voice to its intricate and dynamic character. The music often emphasizes complex polyrhythms, call-and-response patterns, and expressive vocals, creating a soundscape that is both energetic and deeply soulful. My composition draws inspiration from these traditions, capturing the spirit and vibrant energy of Nigeria’s musical heritage. It evokes images of colorful festivals, communal gatherings, sacred rituals, and intimate moments of storytelling—bringing stories to life without words, through melody and atmosphere. Traditional Nigerian music is more than just sound; it is a living expression of identity, community, and the enduring bond between people, culture, and the natural world.
