Del Nilo al Guadalquivir

Description

Del Nilo al Guadalquivir  from the Nile to the Guadalquivir

“Poetry means everything to the Arab peoples.” The exalted poets from throughout history, Arab and Andalusi alike, thread through the handiwork of dance, setting the tone, giving meaning to and mapping the path From the Nile to the Guadalquivir.

This disc of the music from the dance show From the Nile to the Guadalquivir compiles a wide range of Arabic music styles performed on traditional instruments. You will enjoy listening whether you dance or not.
