Exploring the popular Music Genres of Uganda with Emmanuel Katto (Local Ugandan Journalist)
Uganda comprises more than 30 different ethnicities and tribes, and these tribes are the foundation of all the country's original music.

But all the other tribes have their own unique styles of music that have been passed down from one generation to the next since the 1800s. This diversity has led to a great mix of music and culture. In my (Emmanuel Katto) view, music is an essential element of a country’s culture which the citizens are proud of. Below are the popular music genres of Uganda.

Calendar
calendar, any system for dividing time over extended periods, such as days, months, or years, and arranging such divisions in a definite order. A calendar is convenient for regulating civil life and religious observances and for historical and scientific purposes. The word is derived from the Latin calendarium, meaning “interest register” or “account book,” itself a derivation from calendae (or kalendae), the first day of the month in the Roman republican calendar, the day on which future market days, feasts, and other occasions were proclaimed.
