Pitt's Afropop Ensemble performs music in genres resulting from the fusion of African and Western music elements. Under the direction of Dr Ben Barson, the ensemble examines the interconnections between African music and the music of the African diaspora such as reggae and jazz, exploring musical elements of Afropop including call and response, repetition, polyphony, improvisation and syncopation.
