African Tranquility
(1996)
more music like this
by
Various Artists
African Tranquility is a pleasant sampler of relaxed African pop, but a bit of a disappointment for people interested in musicology. The tracks are gathered from the far corners of the great continent -- Madagascar, Uganda, South Africa and elsewhere -- but you'd never know it by looking at the liner notes. If you want to know the country of ...

A Wish
(1999)
more music like this
by
Hamza El Din
Hamza el Din has long enjoyed a reputation as one of the world's great oud players, and the mastery he displays here quickly establishes just why he's so lauded. The virtuosity shown on "Greetings," for example, is a sheer delight, his nimble and thoughtful fingers creating lovely melodies behind the vocals of Shizuru Ohtaka. But it's on "Sunset," ...

Muwashshah [Alula]
(2005)
more music like this
by
Hamza El Din
One of the many excellent albums he's recorded, Muwashshah offers abundant proof that when it comes to Middle Eastern and North African music, Hamza el Din is as impressive a musician as he is a singer. El Din's soulful vocals are something to treasure, but even if he did no singing whatsoever, his oud playing on hypnotic gems like "Assaramessuga, ...
