The Musical Legacy of Al Andalus, Part 2: Africa & Beyond

Bookmark and Share
The recording of the group Al-Andalus was made by Afropop Worldwide. The final complete piece in this program, "Unq al-Malih" by Sabri Moudallal in Syria, was provided by ethnomusicologist Jonathan Shannon. Some of the releases listed here were purchased in Morocco and won't be easy--or even possible--to find. Many others are available, particularly throught the Harmonia Mundi distribution catalogue, an excellent source for music from North Africa and the Middle East.
