ABOUT RWANDA MUSIC
The music of Rwanda largely consists
of African folk music performed by its people. Traditional music and
dance are taught in "amatorero" dance groups, which are found across the
country. The most famous of these is the Ballet National Urukerereza,
which was created in the early 1970's to represent Rwanda in
international events. Also famous were the Amasimbi
n'amakombe and Irindiro dance troupes.
The ikinimba is perhaps the most
revered musical tradition in Rwanda. It is a dance that tells the
stories of Rwandan heroes and kings, accompanied by instruments like
ingoma, ikembe, iningiri, umuduri and inanga. The inanga, a lyre-like
string instrument, has been played many of Rwanda's best-known
performers, including Rujindiri, Sebatunzi, Rwishyura, Simparingoma,
Sentoré, Kirusu, Sophie and Victor Kabarira, and Simon Bikindi.
Due to situations in the past,
many Rwandans have moved overseas in recent years, bringing their
country's music to cities like Brussels and Paris. For many years,
Rwandan-Belgian Cécile Kayirebwa was arguably the most internationally
famous Rwandan musician, until the late 1990's arrival of
Rwandan-Canadian Corneille and Jean-Paul Samputu. Before the chaotic
1990s, Rwanda produced popular local bands like Imena, Nyampinga, Les 8
Anges, Les Fellows, Impala, Abamarungu, Los Compagnons de la Chanson,
Bisa, Ingenzi, and Isibo y'Ishakwe. They took influences from across
Africa, especially the Congo, as well as Caribbean zouk andreggae.
Following the civil war, music gradually returned to the country, and
new stars arose, the most prominent of which is probably Aimé Murefu, a
guitarist that draws upon American rock and blues guitarists like Jimi
Hendrix, BB King and Carlos Santana.
Jean-Paul Samputu, along with his group
Ingeli, won two Kora awards (African Grammy awards) for "Most Inspiring
Artist" and "Best Traditional Artist" in 2003 for their performance of
neo-traditional Rwandan music. The group tours the world spreading the
Christian message of peace and reconciliation, and helps raise money for
the many orphans of Rwanda. In 2007 Samputu brought twelve of these
orphans, known as Mizero Children of Rwanda, to tour the U.S. and
Canada. Cyprien Kagorora was nominated for a 2005 Kora Award in the
category of "Best Traditional Artist". He is among the most recognizable
male vocalists in Rwanda.
Rwandan youth perform the most popular
music in Rwanda. Many have adopted or adapted styles from East Africa or
Western genres, most notably including hip-hop. Riderman is among the
most famous Rwandan hip-hop performers. Others, like Mani Martin,
perform more traditional genres of Rwandan music.
The music industry in Rwanda is
gradually growing and becoming more professionalized. An increasing
number of companies are investing in the development of new talent,
including the production of major music festivals like Kigali Up! and
Primus Guma Guma Superstar, and the music competition television show,
Ishusho K'umuziki Nyarwanda.
