New belly dance compositions by Emad Sayyah. Fifteen bubbly and spirited dance pieces, for all levels of skills, including three exhilarating pure percussion tracks: over one hour of great belly dance music! Amiritna Habibitna, Ahlaw Sahla, Haflitna Ma Btikhlas, Fannik Saharna, Taht El Balah, Ghali, Jimaal Am Tourkos, Ma Tistihi, Maria Oh Maria, Shou Hal Khasr

Besides using traditional oriental instruments such as the darbuka (goblet drum), rik (riqq, tambourine), kanun (qanun, zither), saz (Turkish lute), nay (flute) and santur (dulcimer), Emad Sayyah also utilises modern instruments such as the saxophone, oboe, clarinet, accordion, keyboards and violin. He writes soft and harmonic arrangements avoiding quarter tones to create a new and modern sound with easily accessible melodies and rhythms, which facilitate and enhance movement of the body and expression in the dance.

Emad Sayyah has been performing as a professional singer for more than twenty years. His concerts have taken him to many countries and apart from his home country Lebanon, he has performed in Kuwait, Jordan, Syria and Bahrain as well as Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Netherlands. Emad has lived in Vienna, Austria since 1978. On this CD all the songs, both music and lyrics were written, arranged and produced by Emad Sayyah.
