Sonar 2009 - Omar Souleyman Live - Sonar Village

A true folk legend, Omar Souleyman has over five hundred albums under his belt, all released on cassette and distributed across the length and breadth of Syria. His music combines tradition with a pop approach, creating an energetic mixture of sounds and unique features such as keyboards with Arab reflections, mantric percussion, string instruments and a highly unusual use of his vocal cords, known as "dabke". This is an exceptional opportunity to experience the sound heard at street level in the Middle East live and direct, with no filters or sweeteners.
