Myoma Nyein (25 January 1909 – 15 September 1955) was a renowned Burmese musician and composer. Born Kyaw Nyein to father U Nyi, a goldsmith, and mother Daw Chit Oo, a lacquerware merchant in Mandalay, Myanmar, he was educated at Central National School, Mandalay. At the age of ten, he learnt a Burmese classic titled ''Jambu Kyun Lone'' (Universal) from ''Deva Einda'' Maung Maung Gyi in a single day much to the surprise of the famous harpist. In 1925 he co-founded the Myoma (meaning City Proper) music band or Myoma Amateur Music Association with his teacher artist and musician U Ba Thet and a city burgher ''Dahdan'' U Thant.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Myanmar Political News, Art and Idea )〕 ==Repertoire== Myoma Nyein's greatest love song was ''Chit Da Phadana'' (Love is Fundamental), the gramophone recording made circa 1935-38.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=MRTV-3 )〕 One of his earlier songs written in 1939 was ''Eindawya Paya Zay'' in support of Mandalay's central Zegyo Market shopkeepers' all out strike against Section 23(7) enacted by the British colonial government when they relocated to the Eindawya Pagoda precincts.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=MRTV-3 )〕 During the Second World War, the music troupe along with the townspeople of Mandalay fled to Sagaing Hills across the Ayeyarwady River, and Myoma Nyein came up with the song ''Sagaing Taung'' (Sagaing Hills) among others.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=MRTV-3 )〕 After the war in 1945, when Mandalay held a major sporting event, Myoma Nyein wrote for the occasion songs titled ''Olympics'' and ''Yin Dago Me'' (Beauty Contest).〔 His song for the 1947 Burmese New Year Thingyan ''Shwe Man Taung Yeikkho'' aka ''Mya Nandar'' (In the Shade of Mandalay Hill) has become a perennial classic during the festive season.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=baganland )〕 In 1952 he wrote ''Lu Chun Lu Gaung'' (Good and Able) in honour of Prime Minister U Nu's Pyidawtha (Welfare state) Conference in Rangoon.
