The music of Central Africa By: Katie Cothran and Nick O’neal

Countries, people groups and languages.... Countries in Central Africa and languages spoken (countries listed in picture, and languages spoken are included) People groups in Central Africa are: Aka Baka,Chewa,Chokwe, Efe, Kongo, Lingala, Luba, Mbdundu, Mongo, Ovimbundu, Sua and Zande.

Musicians, musical styles and instruments played in central Africa. Musicians: Fela Kuti – song : Simbon Barthe’lemy Boganda- song: La renaissance (national anthem of Central Africa) Joseph Kabasele (Le Grand Kallé) considered the father of modern Congolese music- song: independence Cha Cha (independence song, he wrote and performed for his country, and has performed during traditional celebrations, or during festive occasions. Musical Styles: Congolese rumba (descendent of the kiKongo dance nkumba) Soukous also known as afrobeat Rumba (Cuban infused music) Jazz (used widely with creation of songs, spreading into many different musical groups. Rwanda Folk music ( used at religious ceremonies/performed in the court rooms, for kings and queens.) Central African instruments: Hindewhu – instrument from central african republic Nose flute-instrument from congo Umuduri- instrument from Rwanda, and many other countries in other continents.

Musical Analysis Music al Style: Folk music (Rwandan) Music Group: Imena Song chosen: Sauti za Busara. What makes this song interesting is that it isn’t only one song, it is many songs put together but Rwandan musicians who take part in the Sauti za Busara festival which include other African artists. Due to there not being a specific song title it is named ‘ Sauti za Busara’, therefore this is the particular title given for the music throughout the festival. These songs are sung by many different musical groups, more popularly known groups such as Imena. During my description of the ‘Sauti za Busara I will be focusing on the music of the Rwandan musicians/musical group Imena. Instrumentation: Ingoma, ikembe, iningiri, umuduri, inanga. These are all traditional Rwanda instruments, which are used during this festival by Rwandan Artists. Melodies: Melodies are used throughout this festival as a emotional and creative addition, engaging the audience, but also putting in symbolic structure for the lyrics; doing so by creating different melodies ;that have different rhythms, textures and artists, making the context of the song simplistic, yet meaningful. Song and lyrical structure: The songs sung by the artists need to be intense and emotional, as they sung about Rwanda’s history, and topics that have a meaning to the Imena group. These songs structure vary from low melodies to high melodies, and during chorus's rhythms and tones ranges highly between the two, this makes the emotion evident in the song. Drumming is a huge aspect during the Rwandan songs relating back to Rwandan dances and tradition.

Musical Group: Imena The people of the Imena group are Rwandan artists. Know for taking part in festivals in Africa, Spain, Italy, Germany and France. The Imena group touch base throughout there songs with topics that have a significant meaning to them. Imena’s main focus is on youth; especially orphans and other marginalized children. As said previously Imena doesn’t have songs, but shows; such as taking part in festivals, Imena are purly known for being a group and creating music, not songs. There music goes back to the tragedies caused by the Rwandan Genocide in 1994, during their performances Imena reaches out about the country's entire population as suffering deeply from psychological and emotional trauma as well as a severe crisis of identity. Imena decided to renew its efforts to strengthen the culture of dance and song; becoming a group that has a first therapeutic stage towards development for a confident and happy youth; youth being a strong element in Imena’s music. Lots of educative massages on children's rights are expressed though the performances of Imena, also making it a movement/association not just a group. Imena has gained a strong musical title due to the topics and historical relations in their music, winning over audience vote as best group of Sauti za Busara festival in Zanzibar 2005.
