Moddathir Abdul Wafa - Toola (CD)

Moddathir Aboul Wafa invites US to rediscover Egyptian music and enjoy it. The music of this album Toola is at the same time modern and traditional, innovative and respectful of the teachings of the great Egyptian composers. For those who know Egypt, the first five pieces that make up this disc may evoke it's distinctive scenery, landscapes, and scents. The last piece included here, which gave name to the album, is a feat of expression of the richness of Arabic instrumental performance and the extraordinary possibilities it has to offer in fusion with other musical genres, here with the jovial 'Latin Samba'.
