	Music of Ghana - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dance orchestras played at the parties of the elite, while poor, rural guitarists played a kind of often-scorned music that was also called palm wine music (the term palm wine has referred to multiple styles from West Africa, but is now more commonly associated with the popular music of Sierra Leone).
		By the 1980s, the UK was experiencing a boom in African music as Ghanaians and others moved there in large numbers.
		The group Hi-Life International was probably the most influential band of the period, and others included Jon K, Dade Krama, Orchestra Jazira and Ben Brako.

		Led by the cosmopolitan Tunisian violinist Muhammad Triki, the Rashidiyya Orchestra arranged the nuba for a large, seated chorus and orchestra including the 'ud sharqi (six-string lute), nay (bamboo flute), and qanun (zither).
		Equally—perhaps even more—radical was the orchestra's adherence to written musical notation and the comprehensive Arab music theory introduced by the Rashidiyya Institute under the leadership of Salah el-Mahdi, Triki's successor.
		But from the Hatters' Market come the sounds of a party, and there waiters in round, flat red hats and striped, collarless shirts pick their way through a dense crowd of people at round tables who are smoking fruit tobacco from water pipes and drinking tea laced with almonds or pine nuts.

		His range of interest and expertise was already formidable – including Kenya, Louisiana, Greece, South Africa, Guadeloupe and Sam Liberman’s Jewish orchestra from Argentina.
		In the event Ben limited himself to replaying just one from that previous show, a 45 rpm single by DO7 Shirati Jazz, and marveled that he could never have imagined in 1983 that he would subsequently produce an album with the Kenyan group.
		If the volume of activity is formidable, so too is the quality – there are few guitarists who can match Ben’s combination of technical accomplishment and emotional impact.

		At 45 minutes long, the album is a nice length for a score recorded in Los Angeles (union re-use fees often restrict albums that use Los Angeles film musicians to around thirty minutes in length -- this happens to Jerry Goldsmith's CDs a lot).
		Some major music pieces are missing, such as a lengthy action cue for the rescue of Jazira.
		But this is still a wonderful listening experience away from the film: it carries you off into the romance of two worlds, the same way the movie does.
