UNESCO: Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity - 2012 • URL: http://www.unesco.org/culture/ich/RL/... • Description: Al-Taghrooda traditional Bedouin chanted poetry is composed and recited by men travelling on camelback through desert areas of the United Arab Emirates and Oman. Short poems are improvised and repeated between two groups of riders often as antiphonal singing. The most important aspect is the social bonding during the oral exchange of verses. Al-Taghrooda is also chanted at weddings and other festivities, particularly camel races. Its themes range from romantic love, friendship, praise of tribal ties, aspirations to the settlement of disputes and contemporary themes. • Country(ies): United Arab Emirates; Oman • © @ADACH 2011 • Duration: 00:09:50 - Support: - (0074400015)
