Suraya Hilal and accordionist El Gamal in this innovative piece capture the essence of Baladi; the weaving of intricate patterns, created spontaneously in the moment. This union of shapes and sounds develops into labyrinths of depth and emotion.

Press Quotes: [In Aseel] Suraya Hilal has gone back to the roots of Baladi ... but at the same time one also recognises elements of free dance and of contemporary modern dance in the movements, which almost always flow gently. It is thrilling that she not only never loses contact with the live music but lets her body breathe as one with the sounds of the accordion right to the smallest nuance, and dances the accents of the percussionists in pure understanding. (Westdeutsche Zeitung) 2004Klaus Schmidt
