Arab Tribes from Aswan
"Jaafra Music & Songs"
with singer, Sayed Rekabi
On Tuesday January 13, 2015 at 8:00 pm.
Sayed Rekabi is counted among the few singers who still perform the original repertoire of the traditional music of the Arab tribes of Upper Egypt.
Born in the village of Jaafra in the province of Aswan, he learned these singing styles under the tutelage of the great masters of the Jaafra tradition,
El Leithi and Abu El Amin whose repertoire encompasses numerous examples of popular poetry, such as the Nameem,
a kind of poetic competition between two poet-singers in which each poet tries to "top" his rival's poetic lines with spontaneously composed poetry.
Except for the melodically improvised and un-metered introduction to each stanza ('ya leil" or "lolee" )
which is shared by other traditional Egyptian song forms, Nameem can be most clearly compared to the rhythmic and chantlike "Rap" or "Hip hop".
Sayed Rekabi and his ensemble present a collection of Jaafra traditional songs
based on traditional poetic forms (including adaptations of Nameem) with voices, oud (lute) and doff (small frame drum).
