Agbadza is among the oldest musical types performed by the Southern Ewe of Ghana. Agbadza is derived from an older war dance known as Atrikpui. As a social and recreational music and dance, its performance is open to everybody in the community, irrespective of class, age, sex, and religion. There are other varieties of this musical type that have different names: Kini, Akpoka, Ageshie, and Agba — tempo being the main distinguishing factor among these varieties. There are five sections or movements in Agbadza performance: 1. Banyinyi — a short introductory piece that is performed as a prayer to the gods and their ancestors, 2. Vutsotso — the main dance section, 3. Adzo — a less — vigorous dance section, during which only the master drum, Sogo, accompanied by Gankogui and Axatse are used, 4. Hatsiatsia — song cycle, during which may last for several hours. Instruments of the Agbadza ensemble, which are also used by the Anlo-Afiadenyigba Gadzo Group to perform the Vutsotso movement of the Akpoka style of Agbadza are: Sogo — master drum, Kidi and Kagan — supporting drums, Gankogui — double bell which plays the time line, and Axatse — a rattle which reinforces the Gankogui. Lead cantor and group leader: Stephen Yao Fiebor. Recorded at Anlo-Afiadenyigba, July 20, 1997.
