When you are in Mauritius, chances are that you will come across some exciting, upbeat music and people dancing to the cheerful tunes. Oh yes, Mauritians\u00a0enjoy singing and dancing, and especially Sega! Check out what Sega is about and where to watch a performance.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

SEGA<\/h2>\n

This style of music originates from\u00a0African people brought to Mauritius as slaves. Joy and suffering impregnate these Creole songs, which are\u00a0accompanied by traditional creole\u00a0instruments: ravanne, maravanne and metal triangle. The dance involves a lot of swinging of the hip and the rest of the body.<\/p>\n

Ti-Fr\u00e8re<\/a> and\u00a0Cassiya<\/a>\u00a0are some of the most well-known Sega artists in Mauritius. Here’s how Sega looks like:<\/p>\n

You can see a live Sega performance at BamBou Restaurant<\/a>.<\/p>\n

REGGAE<\/span><\/h2>\n

Coming from Jamaica, Reggae also appeared on the island owing to its strong similarities with Sega.<\/p>\n

SEGGAE<\/h2>\n

Reggae\u00a0and Sega are merged to create Seggae! This movement was invented by Kaya in the 80s, who used peace and tolerance as themes for his songs. Very popular in Mauritius, Seggae\u00a0brings generations closer together.<\/p>\n

While in Mauritius, tune your radio to\u00a0Radio Moris<\/a> or\u00a0Radio One<\/a>\u00a0and listen to some Sega or Seggae songs to experience the true Mauritian atmosphere!<\/p>\n
