Apocalypse Across
the Sky (amazon.com) - USA (amazon.co.uk) - UK
by Master Musicians Of Jajouka -
Audio CD
This music requires strength. The musicians must have the stamina
to maintain extended notes and rhythms that can last for hours in their native
performances. Using simple drums, pipes, and strings, the Master Musicians of
Jajouka are legendary for their trance-induction ceremonies of wild abandon.
These tracks are but tiny samples of their wares; still, they are rich,
complex, and other-worldly. (Reviewer: A music fan from Manhattan,
NY)

Trance (amazon.com) - USA (amazon.co.uk) - UK
by Zahar, Hassan Hakmoun - Audio
CD
Moroccan Gnawa singer Hassan Hakmoun collides with European dance
musicians to create a long album's worth of genuine trance music. Hakmoun's
spirituality isn't downmixed or diluted by his collaboration; we can hear his
raw appeals to God throughout the often-subdued beats. World music at its best.

Yosefa's
The Desert Speaks....I've had this CD for several years now, and I still love
it. Yosefa uniquely blends several ethnicities of music together. You can
definitely hear each influence--Israeli, Yemenite and Moroccan. I have used two
of her songs for Rope and Trapeze routines. (Reviewer: A listener from
Pittsburg, CA United States)

Morocco - The Sacred Music of the Moroccan Jews
(amazon.com) - USA (amazon.co.uk) - UK
by Various Artists - Audio CD
An
impressive recording which will be of interest to anyone who has a taste for or
curiosity in the music of the Jews, and also of Arabs and/or North Africa. The
all vocal pieces represent religious music including a Sabbath service as well
as individual songs from more than one North African location. Words in Hebrew
are sung to melodies whose characteristics can be traced to Arabic and North
African traditions. Fluid, highly affective melodies are sung by the leading
voices of cantors and answered by a chorus of those attending the service;
shorter. (Reviewer: A music fan from Sonoma, California)

Now Gnawa
music meets skronky downtown New York jazz on Sudani, which features
avant-garde alto saxophonist Patrick Brennan leading a jazz group composed of
traditional Gnawa instruments. Gnawa master M'allim Najib Sudani delivers deep,
hypnotic rhythms on the bass-like gimbri, while members of his troupe play
crashing quarqabeb (cymbals). The result is a soulful blend of jazz, blues and
North African musical traditions. (Editorial Review From Rhythm Magazine)

I have no

have never listened to this style of music. Its a great beginner album
