The Rough Guide to the Music of Sudan

The Rough Guide To The Music Of Sudan is bursting with the diverse and rich music that has emerged from Africa’s largest country, from desert rhythms echoing a camel’s stride to savannah woodland harmonies. This album offers you an overview of a flourishing musical culture – including trance drumming, hip-hop, orchestral music, Arabic love songs and spicy horn sections – and incorporates influences from Egypt to Congo and from the White Nile to the Blue Nile.
