A persistent issue in Nigerian formal music education is its European dominated contents and pedagogical reliance. The consequence of this is that music teaching has been less-culturally and socially relevant. In reaction to this phenomenon, researches in indigenous musical forms have been advocated as means to formulate music education contents with cultural and social relevance. This study, therefore, examines ìbejì festival music for the purpose of adopting and deploying the cultural values therein as learning material in schools, especially in southwestern Nigeria.
