Ali Hassan Kuban

Ali Hassan Kuban (1929 – 2001) was a Nubian singer, born in the south of Egypt. He was revered as the "Godfather" of Nubian Music. He started playing girba (a sort of bagpipes) with his own band during wedding celebrations in Cairo but, in the 1950s, he began adding Western instruments such as saxophone, electric guitar, bass guitar, organ, trumpet and accordion to his ensemble. Thanks to a record deal with the German record company Piranha, he performed for international audiences in the 1990s.
