Fiddling in West Africa (1950s - 1990s):
The Songbook
Ethnomusicology Archive Series Vol 2

Jacqueline Cogdell DjeDje’s songbook, containing song texts, musical transcriptions, biographies of the fiddlers, and more, complements the two-disc CD recording and the book, Fiddling in West Africa: Touching the Spirit in Fulbe, Hausa, and Dagbamba Cultures (Indiana University Press.) The information in the songbook (and the CD) is based on music recorded between the 1950s and 1990s that DjeDje compiled from holdings in the Ethnomusicology Archive at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and material in her book.
