  • Simha Arom (Düsseldorf, 16 de agosto de 1930) es un etnomusicólogo franco-israelí, experto en la música del África central, especialmente de la República Centroafricana. Arom tuvo en sus primeros contactos con los pigmeos a mediados de la década de 1960, y quedó fascinado por ellos. Entre 1971 y 1987 hizo visitas periódicas a los akas, cuya música estudió y se esforzó por conservar, consciente de cómo la modificación rápida de las formas de vida en África amenazaba con terminar con su tradición oral. En 2003, la tradición oral aka fue proclamada Obra Maestra Oral y Herencia Intangible de la Humanidad por la Unesco. (es)
