MAURIX BARU

Originally from Rwanda and based in Montreal, Maurix Baru is redefining music with Afro-Opera — a bold fusion of ancestral African rhythms and the elegance of classical opera. As the first artist to introduce Karahanyuze traditional songs to Canadian audiences, he captivated crowds during his successful 2025 summer tour across Montreal, Quebec City, Ottawa, and beyond. With over 14 years of experience, a powerful voice, and high-profile collaborations, Maurix bridges tradition and modernity to deliver unforgettable performances. His debut Canadian album is currently in the works, aiming to showcase the richness of African culture on the international stage.
