I have in my possession a first edition, hard copy of Ruth Finnegan’s quintessential work, Oral Literature in Africa. It has a yellow cover, preserved by a plastic sheathe, it is a little frayed around the edges and has that old, musty library smell about it. I love and treasure this book. It is dedicated by Professor Finnegan ‘[t]o all my teachers’. Professor Finnegan is indeed one of my teachers. I properly met Ruth Finnegan at the second International Society for Oral Literature (ISOLA) conference in 1998, which I hosted at the University of Cape Town. She gave a keynote address which included reference to her seminal work and the future of oral literary studies. She has continually influenced our work as researchers following in her footsteps: Isidore Okpewho, Harold Scheub, Abiola Irele, Graham Furniss, Elizabeth Gunner, Karin Barber, Isobel Hofmeyr, John Foley, Olayibi Yai, Edgard Sienaert, Brian Street, Noverino Canonici, Mark Turin, Daniela Merolla, Jan Jansen, Jeff Opland, and many others; some younger, some older, some living, some departed, scholars influenced by this great and humble intellectual and her body of work.

AFRIKAANS: In hierdie studie word 'n voorstel gemaak vir die skep van 'n interdissiplinere musiekblyspel vir die seniorfase (Graad 7-9). Die uitgangspunt vir hierdie musiekblyspel is die dinamiese interaksie wat daar tussen sprokies en musiek bestaan. In voorafgaande navorsing deur die outeur, is hierdie interaksie as die integrasieteorie geformuleer. Die integrasieteorie word in hierdie MMus-verhandeling deur middel van storytelling met die kurrikulum verbind. Die vertel-elemente van filmmusiek word ondersoek. Die werk van die filmprodusent, Walt Disney, as sinoniem vir die kombinasie van musiek, sprokies, film en storytelling, dien as voorbeeld vir die skep van die musiekblyspel. Improvisasie¬materiaal, na aanleiding van die fases en motiewe van 'n gekose sprokie, vorm die basis vir die skep van musiek vir die musiekblyspel. Die wedersydse ondersteuning wat tussen die sprokie en die musiek tot stand kom, verhoog die opvoedkundige waarde van hierdie projek. Die skep van hierdie musiekblyspel bied moontlikhede vir suksesvolle kurrikulum-integrasie. ENGLISH: In this study a proposal is made for the creation of an interdisciplinary musical for the senior phase (Grades 7-9). The point of departure for this musical is the dynamic interaction that exists between fairy tales and music. In preliminary research by the writer, this interaction is formulated as the theory of integration. In This MMus dissertation the theory of integration is linked to the curriculum by means of storytelling. The narrative elements of film music are examined. The work of the film producer, Walt Disney, as synonym for the combination of music, fairy tales, film and storytelling, serves as an example for the creation of the musical. Improvisation material, in terms of the phases and motifs of the chosen fairy tale, forms the basis for the creation of music for the musical. The mutual support that comes about between the fairy tale and the music, enhances the educational value of this project. The creation of this musical presents possibilities for successful curriculum integration. / Dissertation (M Mus (Music Education))--University of Pretoria, 2006. / Music / unrestricted
