Abstract The Kãaba are one of the societies in Burkina Faso that still maintain some degree of their ancestral way of living. This article describes the musical heritage of the Kãaba according to their indigenous oral conceptions by highlighting the most pertinent traits of the music ‘classes’ within their related contexts. The long periods spent in fieldwork resulted in a strong bond developing between the researcher and this community, which led to cultural immersion and insight into their religious and social circumstances. Data were collected via observation, interviews and interactive experimentation with the custodians of this culture together with musical analysis. ‘Accredited’ representative groups within the community approved by the community validated analyses and conclusions. After presenting the research process implemented to define the Kãaba musical categories, idiosyncrasies are described to show that the notion of ‘repertoire’ proved ineffective in relation to Kãa music. The term’s relevance is consequently challenged, since it may well be just as unsuitable in describing other musical heritages. Instead, the term ‘categories’ and its derivative ‘categorisation’ are proposed to designate both the process and its outcome.

布基纳法索 Kãa 音乐遗产的土著分类:一套曲目?

摘要 Kãaba 是布基纳法索的社会之一,仍然保持一定程度的祖先生活方式。本文通过突出相关背景下音乐“班级”的最相关特征,根据他们的土著口头概念描述了卡巴人的音乐遗产。在实地工作中花费的长时间使研究人员和这个社区之间建立了牢固的联系,从而导致文化沉浸和对他们的宗教和社会环境的洞察力。数据是通过与这种文化的监护人的观察、访谈和互动实验以及音乐分析来收集的。社区内“认可的”代表团体经社区验证的分析和结论批准。在介绍了为定义卡巴音乐类别而实施的研究过程后,描述了特质以表明“曲目”的概念在卡巴音乐方面被证明是无效的。该术语的相关性因此受到挑战,因为它可能同样不适合描述其他音乐遗产。相反,建议使用术语“类别”及其派生词“分类”来指定过程及其结果。
