1.0 INTRODUCTION
This Nigerian dance is a subset of the African dance culture. It is very dynamic, rich and
magnetic phenomenon. It is not easy to classify all Nigerian dances. Music and dance are
part of life of every Nigerian native. The day you are born is celebrated and so is the day you
die. We can conclude that the rhythms and dance steps of modern dances are products of
African music and dance. There are different types of dances. From acrobatic dance groups
that are available for feature performances, workshops, festivals, and dance lessons to more
subtle dancers that perform during mourning.
The music of Nigeria includes many kinds of folk and popular music, some of which are
known worldwide. Styles of folk music are related to the multitudes of ethnics group in the
country in the country, each with their own techniques, instruments, and songs. Little is
known about the country's music history prior to European contact, although bronze carvings
dating back to the 16th and 17th centuries have been found depicting musicians and their
instruments.
Nigeria has been called "the heart of African music because of its role in the development of
West African highlife and palm wine music, which fuses native rhythms with techniques
imported from the congo for the development of several popular styles that were unique to
Nigeria, like apala, fuji, juju, highlife. Subsequently, Nigerian musicians created their own
styles of United States hip hop and jamaican reggae. Nigeria's musical output has achieved
international acclaim not only in the fields of folk and popular music, but also western art
music written by composers such as Fela Sowande.
Nigeria has some of the most advance recording studio technology in Africa, and provides
robust commercial opportunities for music performers.
