thank God for Cumar Dhuule (AUN). my hero.

 

 

 

 

Cumer Dhuule, who passed away, at the beginning of the new

millennium. He literally committed to memory hundreds, if not

thousands of Somali "Qaraami" songs or oldies.

 

This took great dedication, stamina and a continuous and rigid lonely schedule in order to memorize the lyrics of these important

songs.

 

 

Cumer Dhuule endowed with a powerful memory that allowed him to

store what no other person of his calibre could.

These lyrics were not confined only to the Qaraami or old songs, but also

included hundreds of songs from classical to contemporary

Somaliland songs. No wonder both the older and younger generations loved him.

 

Some people consider the untimely death

of this son of Somaliland a tragedy, which perhaps equals in

magnitude, the burning down of a major library. In the

following pages, we attempt to give our readers a brief sketch

of the artist and his music.

 

 

 

Cumer Dhuule began his musical career in 1955 during the

colonial days when Somaliland was still under British

Colonialism. His first appearance on stage was the once in a

lifetime chance that actors dream about.

 

He performed as the leading "actress" in a play, written and directed by the late

genius, Mohamed Ismail, "Barkhad Cas", who was also a

nationalist freedom activist and poet. Since women were not

allowed to perform in public at that time, Ornar played the

role of a leading actress.

 

He gave an exceptional performance

that is remembered by fellow actors to this day. The great

singer and musician, Ahmed Ali, "Drum," who played the leading

actor, characterizes Omer's acting as something no other actor

can ever emulate.

 

This extra ordinary and exceptional talent

both as an actor and a singer, won him praise and respect

through the years by fellow actors, musicians, directors,

poets, singers and the public alike.

 

It was in 1962, according to a Somaliland poet, Ahmed Suleman

Bide, Omer Dhuule, while visiting Burao, the second biggest

city in Somaliland, first met the great "Oud" player, Mohamoud

Sh Ismail "Xudaydi." It was at this time that the great master

showed few notes to Omer Dhuule.

 

Omer began to practice day

and night, until he became a master teacher of his own and a

great instrumentalist," said Ahmed Suleman Bide.

 

By the late 1960'S, Omer created his own style of playing the

"Oud." He also became a superstar. The (BBC) British

Broadcasting Company's Somali service used to play his songs on

the airwaves continuously. His recordings, therefore, exceed

several well-known singers combined.

 

The Somali speaking communities around the world considered Omer one of the most

admirable singer/musician/actor and poet of all time. 0mer also

had become through the years, one of Somaliland's musical

patriarchs. Though his music is dark hued at first since he

always sang about the rift between him and his wife, or lost

love, i.e., "Ha Laanoo Garnaqo" or We Need Counseling.

 

Butthe music gradually brightens and is full of interesting

musical and singing' imagery of love and romance. His sweet

voice is compared to Teddy Pendergrass or Marvin Gaye.

 

 

The most interesting aspect of Cumer Dhuule's music and "Oud" playing

is the degree to which it draws on Xudaydi's style of "Oud"

playing. A close illustration of this aspect is a recording he

did with his daughters in the early 1980'S.

 

This tape is by far the best and finest piece performed by him. It has a gentle

texture, like Xudaydi's, that gives the music and singing a

sense of mystery. In the tape, Omer Dhuule's excellent

performance sweeps the listener into the music, since the sound

is so cohesive.

 

There is also a spectacular "Oud" playing that

reminds one of "Xudaydi," Omer's mentor and the sexy sensual

voices of his daughters had a graceful, alluring flow and

appealing sense of intimacy.

 

It is a tragedy that Cumer Dhuule has to die outside of his

homeland without a hero's welcome. Somaliland will not only

miss a man who was ahead of his time and a hero; but Somaliland

also misses someone who is equal of importance to the

Somalilanders as the library of Congress in the United States

is to the Americans.

 

Somali truly misses one of its favorite sons! May he rest in peace.

how can Haatu make such inconsiderate comments? especially where my family is concerned?

 

he was basically saying Abdi iley will be killing my family soon.
