Bayna Bayn is Sharq’s debut album, Sharq, a band which was formed back in the beginnings of 2006 in Amman, in an attempt to modernize and develop oriental music in a way that would preserve the music’s authenticity, yet, give it a fresh and new sound. With some of the best musicians in the region, and two vocalists (Male & Female) who beautifully sing Arabic pieces of lyrics and poems by some of the world’s prominent writers. The album includes pieces that are considered excellent examples of the fusion of the past and future, such as the Arabic classic Ajibtu “I Wondered,” a Sufi poem by Mansour Al Hallaj (AD857-AD922), and original compositions such as “Bayna Bayn” by Tareq El-Jundi User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
