Today, he is most sought after as visiting professor, lecturer, or consultant on the subject for which his name has become synonymous. In this collection, Professor G. Foli Alorwoyie has collaborated with Dr. David Locke, professor of musicology at Tufts University, to lay down for intending practitioners to follow, a methodic revival of the "old school" style of Agbadza music tradition - one in which song and drum are intimately intertwined. They have designed this text to be deliberate, pedagogic and easy to follow by experienced music scholars and music enthusiasts, alike.
