More Info

This live tape presents an hour of contemporary, fast-paced music by Homsi singer Duha Fawzi Al Hussein, accompanied by an unnamed male singer set behind her brighter voice. It belongs more to pop than shaabi, owing to its arrangement and quick tempo, though it carries several mawwals, atabas, and iconic shaabi songs like Lahjer Qasrak (I Will Abandon Your Mansion). Duha Fawzi Al Hussein is a female singer from Homs, mostly active in the 1990s and early 2000s. Little is documented about her, but she is remembered fondly, especially across the wedding and concert circuit of the Homs and Hama countryside. Her voice is strong and versatile, moving across genres, from shaabi to romantic, from slow mawwals to fast contemporary songs, Syrian and Iraqi styles.
