Muziki
Research into the music of Africa has for many years been concentrated in the American and European diaspora. It has further been characterised by the same divisions as music research elsewhere, be they between ethnomusicologists and musicologists, or theorists and historians. The journal wishes to establish a unified African voice for African music research. Through its juxtaposition of the historical and the theoretical, the indigenous, the popular and the ‘Western’, it intends to reflect the diversity of African musics and the research that they inspire.
