Egypt - A Musical Voyage Upper Egypt Ensemble

Posted By Demnagirl On Sunday, February 17, 2008 Under
Experience a musical voyage from the city to the Desert. The Upper Egypt Ensemble plays traditional folkloric music from the villages along the Nile river. The music features the mizmar, a brilliant, shimmering sounding folk oboe, and the tabla baladi, a drum capable of exciting earthy rhythms. Together they make a powerful combination used to provide music for festivals and celebrations and while still contemporary, provide a living link with the ancient musical traditions of Egypt.
