Sumario: | Ephraim Amu is perhaps one of the most celebrated and distinguished personalities that Ghana has ever produced. Amu is remembered not only as a musician but also as one who championed the cause of African liberation from Western dominance and paternalism, particularly in terms of our cultural emancipation as a people. Whereas the tunes to his numerous compositions are known to a fairly sizeable section of the Ghanaian population, little is known about the message that the songs communicate. This article seeks to bring to the fore Amu's contribution to nation-building, human growth and advancement as evidenced in five of his compositions. |
