Mazaher profile teaser

Mazaher is an ensemble in which women play a leading role. The musicians of Mazaher, Um Sameh, Um Hassan, and Nour el Sabah are among the last remaining Zar practitioners in Egypt. As one of the African dimensions of Egypt, Zar music unfolds through rich poly-rhythmic drumming: its songs are distinctly different from other Egyptian music traditions. The music of Mazaher is inspired by the three different styles of Zar music practiced; the (Upper) Egyptian Zar, Abu Gheit Zar, and the Sudanese, or African Zar.
