fabulous classic egyptian dance.......2002-12-31

I purchased this Cd while learning a choroegraph to one of the drum solos. Im sure glad this Cd is part of my collection now, there are so many interesting beats and instruments used in the music. It was quite helpful for practice with my zills. If you like classical egyptian music, you should buy this Cd.

Music for dancing.......2000-10-04

Mohktar Al Said has worked as a musical director and composed pieces for famous Egyptian dancers such as Fifi Abdo and Dina. This CD is a collection of dance compositions played in the modern classical, and baladi(country), styles. Violins and a synthesiser/accordion are used on some tracks along with the trad drums, flute, and strings. Two of the baladi tracks - one trad and one by Said - use a mizmar(Egyptian folk oboe). Good dance pieces, including an instrumental version of Lissa Fakir, and 2 drum solos played by Khamis Henkesh. Keyboard is featured in many tracks, 3 of the pieces composed by Said explore the use of sounds made possible by synthesiser, this may be less attractive to those who like acoustic arabic music.
