Description

Mushtaq, written by Yacoub Abu Ghosh, featuring singer/songwriter Tamer Abu Ghazaleh on the album As Blue as the Rivers of Amman (2011).

The songs and pieces of this project carry deep inspirations from the local and regional Arabic musical heritage mixed with the pulse and the sounds of modern arrangement approaches of the global musical culture form a reflection of the artist's vision on the creative capabilities inherent in the social movement accelerated in the modern Arab city, in its harmonies and disorders. Lyrics are a mix between contemplative look at the Jordanian identity, the country rural nomadic side and the mystic Soufi poetry. This is the 3rd production for Yacoub Abu Ghosh, who is considered one of the pioneers of the alternative music movement in Jordan.
