Al-Andalus Collection [21]. Al Ála Al-Andalusíyya

Al Ala al-Andalusiyya is the name given in Morocco to the music of the Arab-Andalusian Nubas. An "al ala" orchestra is one that is specialised in the classical Moroccan tradition of music from Moorish Andalusia - Al Andalus.
This brilliant recording by Omar Metioui and his group, released by PNEUMA in its "Al-Andalus Collection", represents a step forward in the diffusion of this exquisite and diverse court music.
Of particular note are the Twishya, instrumental introductions created in Medieval Islamic Spain and preserved with loving care in oral tradition until our times.
