 His Composition

The Nigerian Musical elements are quite glaring in his music because he always want his music to be conceptualized in that way, as music written by a Modern Nigerian composer. He deliberately makes painstaking efforts to infuse a lot of the African church known as the "Aladura church" musical element into his music. Some of the elements are the rhythmic pattern, tonal organization, parallel harmony, formal structures, instrumental resource, indigenous language, existing church airs, as exemplified in this work Ayo Keresi. Thereby combining European pitch collections, with indigenous tonal schemes such as diatonic, pentatonic, hexatonic, octatonic scales, atonality, as well as the 12-tone row method. Structurally, the form of his music ranges from simple binary, ternary, rondo, theme and variations, sonata form, aria, strophic, through composed, canonic imitation, contrapuntal forms to other freestyles.
