Old Cairo - Mohamed Al Arabi Ensemble - CD

The Mohamed Al Arabi Ensemble presents Old Cairo, a taste of the rich musical culture of Cairo. The masterful musicianship of the Ensemble coupled with the brilliant works of legendary composers create a nostalgic experience which takes you to the 1950s -1960s, the golden era of Egyptian music. Conducted and recorded by the late Mohamed Al Arabi in 1966, the percussion leader and soloist of the Om Kalsoum Orchestra, Old Cairo preserves the sophistication and elegance of classical Arab music.
