More Info

Unlike many Syrian shaabi tapes that contain few long segments, this cassette by Waleed Al Agha includes a wide variety of songs, abudhiyat, attaba, and souaihly, giving listeners a chance to find something they like regardless of their musical taste. The traditional oriental arrangement forms a beautiful backdrop against which Waleed Al Agha sings with a masterful tarab voice. Waleed Al Agha comes from rural Aleppo province. He has maintained a steady presence in the Syrian shaabi scene since the 1990s, and is considered one of the accomplished names in the field of attaba in rural Aleppo, alongside his performance of a wide spectrum of Syrian shaabi music styles.
