Abstract
- The article provides an overview of the traditional Maltese music genre called ghana, which combines influences from both European and Islamic cultures. Ghana has recently gained recognition and has been added to UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage list. The music is characterized by high-pitched vocals and poetic lyrics, and it has been modernized to suit the digital age. The article also mentions efforts to revive and expand the audience for ghana through events like the Ritmu Roots Festival, which takes place annually in May. Additionally, the article highlights a song called "Lament" by Etnika, which is featured on a current compilation. [Extracted from the article]
