The qasidah (ode) “Fiyyashiyya” became a standard classic of the Maghrebi genre of malhoun— a genre of Sufi music popular amongst tradesmen in the urban centers of what is today Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. This qasidah continues to be one of the best-known and loved traditional songs amongst Moroccans from all walks of life. The inclusion of tanbour and daff gives this new arrangement a Persian or ‘Khorasani’ touch. Sami Yusuf has also added English lyrics to the song. • PERFORMERS (From right to left): • Seyyed Mohammad Jaberi: Daf, Bendir, Dayre vocals • Ömer Avci: Dohol, Bendir, Kudum vocals • Abbas Karacan: Bass Darabuka, Bendir Tef • Selim Boyaci: Oud vocals • Mustafa Olgan: Qanun vocals • Seyed Ali Jaberi: Tanbour, Tar vocals • Türker Dinletir: Ney, Zourna vocals • Adem Tosunoglu: Baglama, Tanbur, Kemançe vocals • Farshad Mohammadi: Santoor vocals • Jon Lawton: Classical Guitar, Tanbour vocals • AND • Sami Yusuf: Vocal, Piano, Tar, Oud Tonbak • Backing Vocalists (From the right): • Sami Mohammad Ahmad Alhaj: Bass • AbdulRazzak Barma: Baritone • Abeer El Sayed Ahmad: Mezzo-Soprano • Nancy Al Baltaji: Contra-Alto • • THE CONCERT • Recorded and filmed at the Dubai Opera on the 16th of December 2016, this concert explores traditions from over one thousand years of the cultural and sacred music of Andalusia, North Africa, Arabia, Khorasan (Greater Persia) and Asia.
