%0 Journal Article %T A Preliminary Bibliographical Guide to Doctoral Theses on Music in Nigeria (1990 ¨C 2010) %A Charles Onomudo Aluede %J Voices: A World Forum for Music Therapy %D 2012 %I University of Bergen. Antioch University %X This study is essentially a referential guide which explores simply, the titles of doctoral degrees in music acquired by Nigerians in the last two decades. It presents a diary of the areas of specialisations of their holders. To this effect, doctorate degree titles in music were collected. The study revealed that there are more ethnomusicologists than music educators, composers, performers, popular music studies, music media and music therapy practitioners presently in Nigeria based on the titles of the theses collected. In reaction to this, it is suggested, among other things, that stake holders should explore other avenues such as workshops and master classes to serve as an initial proactive forum where these palpable lapses will be redressed. %U https://normt.uib.no/index.php/voices/article/view/667
