Known as "The King of Belly Dance Music" George Abdo and His Flames of Araby Orchestra combine Syrian, Lebanese, Egyptian, Armenian, Greek and Turkish musical traditions to create a uniquely American belly dance soundscape. Abdo's music is based on the repertoire, instrumentatiopn and performance styles of the Middle East while incorporating influences from American pop and jazz. A prototype for worldbeat, Abdo and His Flames of Araby helped bring Middle Eastern music and belly dancing to mainstream North American audiences. Culled from his 5 best-selling albums, this compilation showcases rich vocals and lively rhythms played on violin, oboe, 'ud, qanun, darbukka, and bouzouki as well as guitar, piano, bass, and drums.
