Known as the “Bartok of Egypt,” Abdel-Rahim’s music contains many beautiful ornamented solo lines and exotic non-Western harmonies based on Arabic modes (maqamat). This piece has been popular among Egyptian instrumentalists for decades and is published now for the first time with the solo part available for flute, oboe or violin. Also available in a woodwind quintet arrangement.
