طرب - mirth

not sure of the locality, but loving the disco breaks
طرب - tarab is a key concept in arabic music

“Tarab” is an Arabic word not found in the English language that describes a state of emotional transformation and bliss when one is wholly absorbed in music.

The emotional orientation of Arab composition is also ‘played out’ during the Arab cultural performance events. As opposed to the formal Western classical concert, the Arab performance leans towards interaction and expressively charged within the musicians and audiences. In the Arab culture, the fusion between music and emotional change symbolized by the Arabic perception of Tarab, which may not have a precise equivalence in Western languages.

For instance, with the physical and emotional appearances on performers can be quite visible, and the Tarab ecstasy is generally approached with an air of discreetness. When it becomes extreme or when publicly presented, the musical emotion can incite social mimicry, if not ethical and religious disapproval. The vision of Tarab is a complex notion that embraces an aesthetic-experiential principal but also links with a dense network of cultural morals, economic associations, and social hierarchies.
& also a whole entire style of east african music https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taarab which deserves its own thread

a particularly tinny rendition of the big Tandalty anthem, unfortunately cuts out just when "Al-Marioud" jumps into a two finger solo

I have to admit I'm fascinated by the guy in the yellow and black hoodie because it says 'made in gre" and I can't read the rest and I really hope it says "made in Greenock" because my dad worked on the docks in that Clydeside town and it pisses me off the that BBC will mispronounce the name as "Gren-knock" when everyone who actually lives there calls it "Green-knock" - trivia: it's been a while since I lived there, but I was told by someone ten years ago that in the early 2000's that the bus service and all the taxi services were owned by the same huge smack dealer, and he had arranged it so the bus services stopped at 6 pm so he could milk the taxi rides for personal gain ( and that the bus services were a money laundering operation, etc., ) - I hope this revelation does not result in my untimely death....

الفنانة ماجده اسماعيل الدوليه بت تندلتي والعازف ودالمريو - The artist Magda Ismail Al-Dawlia, Bit Tendalti, Al-Azif and Dalmriod

I think "Dalmriod" is really Al-Mariod, google translate fails again

Magda bangs out her big tune and looks like she's having fun, the Tandalty lads seem to love it judging by the arms in the air and "dipping" moves

سيد الفنيله الزرقاء احمر قمر - The master of the blue jersey, the red moon

despite what google translate says, he's wearing a red sweatshirt: the "master of the blue jersey" is actually Ahmed Qamar, who seems to have been a busy bee recently

looks like Al-Mariod gets to sit down on a chair for a change, Robert Fripp style, you can barely see his head

I was mistaken about the new status of Al-Marioud's chair

here's a clip from 8 months ago where he is obviously sat in a chair


المريود ₩ ماجده حفله حي الثورة - Al-Maryoud ₩ Magda Al-Thawra neighborhood party

his eyes glaze over as the trancelike qualities of the music overpower him but he pulls back and goes all caped wizard on the keys

unfortunately we only get to see Magda's back and she doesn't really get a look in

here's a clip from 9 months ago of Al-Marioud standing up, the crowd get carried away and the guy in the pale yellow and black checked shirt presents him with a cap to many cheers:


تسجيلات ود حمردي حفله الدقجه المريود احمد قمر - Wad Hamrdi's recordings, the concert of the dance, Maryoud, Ahmed Qamar

Ahmed doesn't actually perform in this clip, other than nodding his head, despite being credited in the crappy google translation
