Cornelius Nyungura, known as Corneille, is a German born Rwandan francophone singer. His work is greatly influenced by American funk and soul music; among those he admires are Prince, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder.
Corneille was born on March 24, 1977 in Freiburg, Germany, where his parents were studying, though he spent most of his childhood in Rwanda. He discovered his passion for music in 1993, and so joined an R&B group, who won the Douverte 1993 competition. This also introduced him to songwriting and musical composition.
Corneille finished recording his first english album, which should be released in June 2007. The first single is called "Back to life", and can be heard on his myspace page.
