Sounds of the Seychelles: The world s musical melting pot

Gou Kréol (1994) reflecting on the common Creole culture across the Indian Ocean. But séga also gave rise to a genre the Seychelles claims as its own – the moutya. A deeply communal performance of dance and music, the moutya’s characteristic flat goatskin drum is tuned by being warmed by the heat of the open fire around which the gathering takes place and is joined by improvised call and response singing. In recent years Victoria has been at the heart of efforts to preserve this sound of more than 200 years’ history.
