Hi Bill
It’s Mokale Koapeng again. I
hope this email finds you well. It has been a long time not talking. I
am currently teaching a composition model for our 3rd year
composition students called African Composition
Resources. I am looking for scores by composers whose works incorporate
indigenous African music techniques. This is a great way of getting the
music of composers known to composition students.
Warm regards and God’s blessings
