More Info

A cassette featuring a variety of songs by the great artist Sabah Fakhri. Sabah Fakhri (1933-2021) is celebrated as one of the greatest singers in Arabic music of the 20th century. Born in Aleppo, Sabah studied there at the Academy of Arabic Music and later in Damascus, graduating in 1948. Fakhri was known for his powerful vocals, precise control of musical scales and harmony, and captivating stage presence. He famously presented traditional Arabic music forms such as qudud and muwashahat to the world on the stage, television and radio during a career that spanned more than 50 years. His popularity extended beyond Arabic-speaking countries to Europe, Asia, the Americas, and Australia, where he sang exclusively in Arabic. Unlike many other Arab artists, he never relocated to Cairo – believing that his fame was tied to Syria's artistic heritage.
