In J.H. Kwabena Nketia’s reading about “The Interrelations of African Music and Dance”, there was a few points I found interesting. The first thing I’d like to point out is how she mentions that certain movements that are made are chosen within different societies. I find that pretty unique, because no matter what part of Africa you go, you will always see different styles of dancing and different movements. As well as, being able to distinguish the type of differences within the groups. For example, when she mentions the differences between the Fante style and the Ashanti style, which is one using the lower body more than the upper body. (Nketia, 91)
For one thing, I did like how she mentioned the principles that needed to be followed in order
