An achingly eloquent solo improvisation on the Chinese erhu by the world-renowned master Guo Gan opens the piece, which then moves into a joyful call and response between Sami Yusuf and the vocalists of Cappella Amsterdam. As the rhythm builds, the Arabic lyrics sung by the Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra are answered in English by Cappella Amsterdam. This innovative rendition captures the exuberant essence of the North African folk sound just as it clearly captured the hearts of the audience who are heard clapping and singing along. Written by the Moroccan poet Sidi Othman ibn Yahya Cherki (known as “Sidi Bahloul Cherki”) in the 17th century CREDITS: Performed and arranged by Sami Yusuf Words and Music: Traditional Moroccan English translation: Dr. Tim Winter Maqām: ‘Ajam Sami Yusuf & Ensemble: Sami Yusuf: Vocal Ömer Avci: Bendir Eyüpcan Açikpazu: Ney Hasan Hekimoglu: Oud Onur Cicin: Qanun Guo Gan: Erhu Seyyed Mohammad Jaberi: Daf Huseyin Can Pala: Baglama Mahyar Toreihi: Santoor Jon Lawton: Guitar Cappella Amsterdam: Soprano: Sanda Audere, Elisabeth Blom, Marijke van der Harst Alto: Hebe de Champeaux, Irene Sorozabal, Inga Schneider Tenor: Jon Etxabe Arzuaga, Jelle Leistra, Diederik Rooker Bass: Jan Douwes, Angus van Grevenbroek, Johan Vermeer Follow Cappella Amsterdam: https://www.twitter.com/cappellaadam https://www.youtube.com/cappell
