The introduction of a documentary film (52 min) produced by Al-Jazeerah documentary. The singer is Malouma but I don't know about the song. This film discusses that blues in its modern form is from Mauritania. Whether it's true or not, you're listening to an original and traditional music.. not some cheap copy of American blues :-)

  • Just watched this film on a flight fro Dar es Salaam to Doha. I love Mauritanian music but my Arabic wasn't good enough to understand the film properly. But the passion and rigour of the performers - and their commitment to teaching the music well - comes across. Excellent documentary and thanks for posting this short intro!
