This is a professional group of graduate students of TTU School of Music, sponsored by the TTU Vernacular Music Center. They perform and teach music and dances from Africa. They play several African musical instruments and perform a variety of African dances as well as western musical instruments, and sometimes do a fusion of both genres.
Miziki Rhythm Africa Ensemble has represented the TTU School of Music in several community
outreach programs, sharing African knowledge, skills, and heritage with the Lubbock
community and schools within Lubbock ISD. Miziki Rhythm Africa has travelled internationally
sharing knowledge and skills in Arts festivals and cultural exchange programs around
the globe including Africa, America, Asia, Europe, and Asia.
