Music of Africa and
Songs of Africa Ensemble: an eclectic
combination of tight harmonies, often backed by flute-string quartet &
jazz trio - "a St Louis phenomenon!" ...'synoptic and deliberately Pan-African which brings a selection of choral music cultivated by different ethnic and linguistic groups together in one volume... promoting understanding and appreciation of the integrity of the artistic dimension of African music..." – Foreword by J. H. Kwabena Nketia, Emeritus Professor, University of Ghana, Legon-Accra, Ghana
"Now here's a really interesting book ... And boy is it stimulating ...
Many of the arrangements or transcriptions are by Onovwerosuoke himself,
and are interesting and ear-opening ... A great collection for doing
something different with your choir or, even better, to take to a
workshop to work on properly and in depth..." Read review of Songs of Africa in "The Singer"
