Creative African Fusion - Fur Elise & Agbekor - Brown Ghanaian Ensemble

Have you wondered about the relationship between classical music and traditional African music? In this performance, master drummer Kwaku Kwaakye Obeng performs with Mark Steinbach (Brown University Organist), and students in the Brown Ghanaian Ensemble. This is a fusion of Beethoven's Fur Elise and Agbekor, a traditional Ghanaian (Ewe) genre of war music. The question is which was composed first? It is like nothing that you've heard before!

Fantastic blend of sounds. If you ask me I'll say the little arm pit drum is the portable iPad and the piano could be the computer.
