Description
Bantu Contributions in Brazilian Popular Music: Ethnomusicological Perspectives is a seminal work that explores the cultural significance of African musical elements in Brazilian popular music. This study addresses a long-standing concern in the field of ethnomusicology, highlighting the need to identify the actual cultural group or traditional function of musical elements in their societies of origin. By applying a holistic method, the author provides a comprehensive explanation of the transfer and adaptation of Africanisms in the African diaspora of the Americas.
