Selim Shaarawy - سليم شعراوي

Selim Shaarawy was born in Abu Simbel, as son of Shaarawy Selim - one of the pioneers of the artistic Nubian song by the thirties of the last century. In the early sixties, the young Selim joined the Adawaa Al Nuba Music Group and later the Ali Koban orchestra in Cairo, where he became famous as an artful dancer and Tar (Nubian drum) and Bongo percussionist, and was distinguished and brilliant in all colors of the art of rhythm..

Inspired by the great artists of his time, Selim Shaarawy also started singing. His breakthrough came as the great Artist Mohammed Wardi invited him and other artists, and singled him out when he sang the refrain. Wardi praised him encouraging him, but he told Selim his playing the rhythm was even more beautiful, and took him as percussionist to a concert in Alexandria. After singing at artistic gatherings, his emotional performance became prominent and the greatest poets of the time wrote and composed songs for him.

Selim Shaarawy's songs appeared in albums and cassettes in the 70s and 80s, and he was one of the co-founders of the Nubian Drums, Rhythms and Singing Band in 1991, whose aim was was to preserve the Nubian rhythmic and lyrical heritage of extinction and searching for the Nubian rhythmic roots, and its similarity to the Nubian rituals with the ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. The regretted Selim Shaarawy has influenced Nubian art and singing and his rich legacy with countless beautiful songs still lives in our conscience to this day, generation after generation.
