Soumaya Baalbaki - La' Moush Ana El Abki (Live)

Soumaya Baalbaki singing "la' moush ana el abki" from the Album Arabtango (available @ www.forwardmusic.net).


"Arabtango" is a remake of 9 compelling songs of the Arabic Classical repertoire of the 50s 60s and 70s. It was during this golden period of Arabic music that composers and musicians in Cairo and Beirut began experimenting with Latin influences such as Bolero, Tango and Cha Cha Cha mixing them with Middle Eastern melodies and lyrics. There are four songs t in this CD by "Abdel Wahab" undoubtedly one of the greatest composers of this period, two by "Asmahan" and "Leyla Mourad" the divas of Arabic singing alongside "Om Kolthoum".
The beauty of "Arabtango" is that all the tunes are recognizable by Arab speaking listeners because of their popularity in Middle Eastern culture but at the same time they can easily be prized by Western ears because of the beautiful melodies that are rearranged in a Tango format. As for the language: it is that of Love, the universal language that anyone who has loved would understand. All the songs are passionate and debate the issues of Love and heartbreak. This CD is about Love.
"Arabtango" is truly a world music endeavor in the sense that it blends the Oriental melodic imagination with the beautiful cadenza and verve of Tango. The combination of Oriental instruments such as the Oud, the Rik with the accordion, violin and Cajun create the perfect environment for the singer Soumaya Baalbaki to lay her magnificent voice and improvise at times.
