Product Description
Myoma Amateur Music Association was co-founded in 1925 by Myoma Nyein (1909-1955). From Mandalay, Nyein is considered one of the greatest Burmese composers and musicians, responsible for a large body of work that has inspired future generations. The Association has continued to perform and this album is a recording with another legend of Burmese music, Mar Mar Aye. It's believed that during the 1980s, she was singing on 80% of all Burmese soundtracks. She emigrated to the US in 1998, so it can probably be assumed this is a recording before that. Other composers on this album include Saya Tin, U Ba Thien, U Bo Khin and Ko Shon Myine.
