Hamza El Din

(Wadi Halfa, Sudan 1929- Sudanese performing musician of Islamic Nubian and Arabic Music.
Almost
4 decades elapsed since Hamza El Din started his sacred mission of
promoting, developing and presenting the Nubian Culture to the world.
He was one of the many thousands suffering from the Nubian Diaspora
following the loss of hometowns and villages after inundation by the
waters of the Aswan High Dam.
His sentiments are deeply expressed
through his songs, where his longing is expressed by called Nubia as
the daughter of mother earth.
His name remains synonymous to Nubia,
Nubian Music and culture. His long and cumbersome journey was
accompanied by his oud (lute) and tar (the traditional Nubian
instrument).
His style is simple and majestically powerful. With a
charismatic voice, and only few taps on the tar and some tender play on
the oud by him is sufficient to make all Nubians hear themselves.
Hamza
was graduated as an electrical engineer over 4 decades back when
electrical engineers were scarcity in his homeland Sudan and in Egypt
where he got his degree. However, without any musical background he
heart was drawn to Nubian music, and he learned the oud to a level of
becoming one of the few living masters of this instrument. Hamza
managed to reinvented Nubian music traditions.
His Sufi background
and teachings by his grandfather on Rumi and other famous Sufi mystics
and poets has qualified him to become a master in this field as well.
