**Diramore** (Burmese: *ဓီရာမိုရ်*; born **Maung Maung Zaw Htet**; born 4 June 1974) is a Myanmar musician and pro-rector (retired) at the [National University of Arts and Culture, Mandalay](/source/National_University_of_Arts_and_Culture,_Mandalay).[1]

His stage name "Diramore" was given by his father and eldest brother before his debut. The name, meaning "The Wiser One," is a portmanteau of the [Pali](/source/Pali) term for "wise" () and the Burmese term for [Mount Meru](/source/Mount_Meru) (Mount Myintmo).[2]

## Early life and education

Diramore was born in [Kawkareik](/source/Kawkareik), [Kayin State](/source/Kayin_State), [Myanmar](/source/Myanmar), on 4 June 1974, from U Htun Naing and Daw Nyunt Nwe. He is the youngest among his siblings: five brothers and a sister.[2] The eldest brother inspired him to be interested in music since he was young. At the age of twelve, he became part of his brothers’ band and performed at the parties, events and seasonal festivals in [Mawlamyine](/source/Mawlamyine). In 1992, he passed the [matriculation exam](/source/Matriculation_exam) with [Physics](/source/Physics) distinction, from BEHS (4), Mawlamyine.[3]

When the [National University of Arts and Culture, Yangon](/source/National_University_of_Arts_and_Culture,_Yangon) (NUAC) officially opened in 1993, Diramore enrolled in this university and became one of the 1st batch students majoring in music.[2] During his years as a student at NUAC, Diramore determined to choose Music as his career.[3]

Initially, Diramore was not very interested in the traditional [music of Myanmar](/source/Music_of_Myanmar). After learning more and more about Myanmar traditional music at the university, he began to recognize and appreciate the core value and the beauty of [traditional music](/source/Traditional_music).[4] Later, he entered the [National Performing Arts Competition](/source/National_Performing_Arts_Competition), specializing in such [Myanmar](/source/Myanmar) [traditional instruments](/source/Traditional_instruments) as [Hne](/source/Hne), Oozi, Doe Pat, and achieved gold, silver and bronze medals. Moreover, he gained knowledge of [recording](/source/Sound_recording_and_reproduction), [dubbing](/source/Dubbing_(music)), and film music production from some great intellects like U Ko Ko, U Hla Htut, U Tin Yee, Trumpet Win Oo, and so on.[4] In 1997, he graduated with a [bachelor's degree](/source/Bachelor's_degree) in [Music](/source/Music).[2]

Then, in 2003, Diramore won a full scholarship from Monbukagakusho Scholarship Program of Japan. Thus, in Japan, he continued to study as a research student until 2004, and completed his [master's degree](/source/Master's_degree) in [Composition](/source/Musical_composition) from [Tokyo University of the Arts](/source/Tokyo_University_of_the_Arts) (Geidai), in 2006.[2] The name of contemporary [composition](/source/Musical_composition) Diramore submitted for his master's degree was "End of This Life." The piece was originally inspired by a [Myanmar](/source/Myanmar) traditional tune called "*Byaing Taung* (a [melody](/source/Melody) usually played at the [funerals](/source/Funerals)). It described a human's feelings before death and involved five different sections: regaining consciousness, memories, pain, the door of death, and the end. It took a year for him to complete this piece. Besides, during his years in Japan, Diramore played as a member of [Bunkyo](/source/Bunkyo) Amateur Orchestra.[5]

### Musician

As a musician, Diramore is actively working as a composer, singer, music director, and music producer.[6]

### Composer, singer

When he was a university student, Diramore wanted to be a composer who is able to create not only Rock and Pop songs but also Classical pieces. Therefrom, he started composing songs and tried to persuade popular singers of that time to buy his songs. However, the songs were not accepted by those singers and he was not willing to create his songs for someone's preference. Thus, he stopped persuading others and made a decision to sing his own songs.[3] In 2000, with his first solo album *Guitar Shi Lar* (Do You Have a Guitar?), Diramore debuted as a composer and singer. Chronologically, the second solo album *Kyanaw Nae Gita* (Music and I) was released in 2008; the third solo album *Lamin Phan Pwel* (Race of Catching the Moon) in 2012; and the fourth solo album *Myit O Gyi* (The Old River) in 2016.[7] As a singer, he collaborated with some musicians from foreign countries. In 2016, Diramore and the Japanese singer Suwa Junko dropped a single named "*Friends*" for [Kumamoto](/source/Kumamoto) Earthquake relief fund.[8] The next year, a single named "*Phayar Pay Su* (God's Reward)" was released as a result of the collaboration between Diramore and [Joss Stone](/source/Joss_Stone), during her [Total World Tour](/source/Total_World_Tour).[9] In 2020, he released his fifth solo album, the Circle and, in 2024, sixth solo album, Night respectively. His lifetime-inspired persons in music are Htoo Eain Thin, Khin Wann, Shwe Pyi Aye and Freddie Mercury (Queen).

### Music director

The year when Diramore founded Gita Kabyar Orchestra (formerly Opera Orchestra) and began to work as a music director was in 2002. The earliest performance of Diramore and his orchestra was a live recorded album named *Chitthu Doe Ye Mingalar Tay*.[10] Some of his achievements as a music director include: Opening and Closing Ceremonies of [2013 SEA Games](/source/2013_SEA_Games) as well as [2014 ASEAN Para Games](/source/2014_ASEAN_Para_Games); Opening Ceremonies of [Myanmar Motion Picture Academy Awards](/source/Myanmar_Motion_Picture_Academy_Awards) in 2017, 2018 and 2019; Japan-Myanmar Festivals; and collaborations with ASEAN-RUSSIA Symphony Orchestra, Orchestra for Myanmar, [Taipei](/source/Taipei) [Civic Orchestra](/source/Civic_Orchestra), and [BBC Symphony Orchestra](/source/BBC_Symphony_Orchestra).[11][12][13][14] In 2016, he was awarded by the Charles Wallace Burma Trust (UK-registered Charity), and went to [University of Bristol](/source/University_of_Bristol), England, as a visiting fellow for three months.[15] During the visit, he not only arranged orchestral version of Myanmar Classical song "Ywe Ta Nyar" for the [BBC Symphony Orchestra](/source/BBC_Symphony_Orchestra), Orchestra for Myanmar and New Children's Choir;[12] but also gave a presentation about Myanmar Classical Music at the [Faculty of Arts](/source/Faculty_of_Arts), [Bristol University](/source/Bristol_University).[16] In addition, Diramore founded the **NUAC Orchestra** in 2016 with music students from [National University of Arts and Culture, Yangon](/source/National_University_of_Arts_and_Culture,_Yangon), and staged the NUAC Orchestra Concerts annually until 2018.[17] Plus, he contributed as a music director in the concerts of some locally popular singers like [Wai La](/source/Wai_La), Lynn Lynn, [Han Htoo Lwin](/source/Han_Htoo_Lwin), [Sai Sai Kham Leng](/source/Sai_Sai_Kham_Leng), [Ni Ni Khin Zaw](/source/Ni_Ni_Khin_Zaw), and so on.[18][19][20]

### Music producer

Next, Diramore's career as a [film score](/source/Film_score) composer and music producer was activated in 2004, with the film *Chit Thaw Arimadanapura Ii Mahar Aung Pwel* directed by [Kyi Phyu Shin](/source/Kyi_Phyu_Shin).[6] In fact, he is a two-time winner of [Myanmar Motion Picture Academy Awards](/source/Myanmar_Motion_Picture_Academy_Awards) for Best Music. The first time was with the film *Zawka Ka Nay The* (Zawgyi is Dancing) in 2009, and the second time, with *Luu Yadanar Thike* (Luu Treasure Trove) in 2016.[21] Additionally, Diramore won Best Music Score Award from Epic Animation, Comic and Game Festival 2016, US, with the animated short film *[My Life I Don't Want](/source/My_Life_I_Don't_Want)* directed by Nyan Kyal Say.[22] Thus far, he has composed and produced music for more than 50 films.[6] In 2024, he won the best Music Academy Award for Myanmar's very first musical film, Eain Mat Kar Yan.

On top of his endeavors, Diramore attempted to preserve and promote Traditional [Music of Myanmar](/source/Music_of_Myanmar).[3] In 2013, he began a project named Beauty of Tradition in which a hundred of Myanmar Traditional songs were researched, organized and rerecorded. Then he cooperated with the Japanese Music Production Company, Airplane Label, and released three [Myanmar](/source/Myanmar) [traditional music](/source/Traditional_music) albums in Japan during 2014 and 2015, under the name *Beauty of Tradition*.[23] However, it was assumed that collecting only a hundred songs would not be enough in preserving Myanmar Traditional Music. Therefore, the project was broadened into a collection of 1,000 Myanmar Traditional songs and renamed as Gita Yadana.[24] The aim of this project is to build a massive interactive archive where a thousand of old and rare Myanmar Traditional songs with [high-resolution audio](/source/High-resolution_audio) can be easily observed. Each song in the project was researched, organized, and rerecorded with the help of veteran traditional musicians around the country and of the Japanese [audio engineer](/source/Audio_engineer), Hiroshi Iguchi. The project was made up of seven categories, namely: *Maha Gita (Classical Music)*, *Kar La Paw (Traditional Contemporary Music)*, *Thabin Gita (Dramatic Music)*, *Myanmar Hsaing (Traditional Ensemble)*, *Kyay Let Gita (Folk Music)*, *Nat Chin (Spiritual Music)*, and *Let Swam Pya (Instrumental Solos)*. The project was planned to release into nine volumes. In 2018, *Gita Yadana* was launched, and the very first volume of the project was released on both international and local streaming sites like Spotify, MMN and JOOX.[24] By the end of 2020, Gita Yadana project has been completely released.

Being a teacher and a musician, Diramore never hesitates to share knowledge of music every chance he gets. He used to make contributions to numerous local workshops, seminars, and classes of government agencies as well as private schools like ILBC, Yangon Music School, MMDC, etc.[6]

### Founder

In 2022, he founded a music and art academy, Music City Myanmar, and the academy is being successful.
