Title: a well-rounded album
Review: This CD is a nice, well-rounded sample of Hossam Ramzy's style. It is especially well-suited to the dancer or Egyptian music enthusiast who is interested in becoming more familiar with the instruments, since each track seems to have its own featured instrument, from maghroub to trumpet to three quarter accordian. many of the track start with nice long solos, and most are very upbeat, although track 6 is a slow meditative song possibly suitable for a fire dance. Most of the songs are of a moderate length for performance, around seven minutes. The only reason i didn't give it five stars is that a couple of the tracks (one or two) have what i find to be an annoying synthesizer beat at first. Overall, though, i find this CD to be wonderful to listen to as well as dance to.
