The Arabesque Music Ensemble

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
They are in their 20s and 30s, living in the US and some have recorded with Shakira and Beyonce. But when they play as the Arabesque Music Ensemble, their focus is on traditional, even obscure, Arab music. Members of the ensemble join us to talk about the group’s second album, "The Music of the Three Musketeers," covering the golden age of Egyptian music.

This is an encore edition of Soundcheck.
