their functions; the significance of the song texts; the general
organization in performance activities coupled with distribution of
musical roles such as: stage formation and communication network
among the dancers, singers and the instrumentalists. From the study,
there was great need for trained personnel to man Ese in Mbaise
culture, the native land of its origin; this done will revive the sociocultural art, which for the time being is on the verge of neglect.
