"Little bird of Buganza, be quiet. I will rub you with perfume. The time to hate you is as far as the moon. The time to love you so close."
So sings the queen of Rwandan music, Cécile Kayirebwa. Buganza is a beautiful hilly region in north eastern Rwanda where Cécile worked as a social worker in the 1960s. It was there that she formed a choir to interpret traditional Rwandan songs and preserve a musical culture that was fast evaporating in the white heat of modernization.
For more than forty years Cécile worked tirelessly both at home in Rwanda and in Belgium, where she lived for twenty years, to share the love of her country's music with others and to heal the pangs of homesickness felt by exiled Rwandese all over the world.
