MASTER MUSICIANS OF JAJOUKA
JAJOUKA BETWEEN THE MOUNTAINS - CD

Myth and legend swirl around The Master Musicians of Jajouka, a troupe of Sufi musicians from a village in the Rif Mountains of northern Morocco, and the custodians of a culture with roots in ancient Persia. Passed down through generations of the same family, their trance music is as complex and melodic as it is spiritual and healing. Delivered on instruments including lira (flute), gaita (oboe), and drums beaten with hands and sticks, it is intensively practiced and often played all night.
