DESCRIPTION:
Brooklyn Qawwali Party doing a brass band interpretation of traditional Qawwali. In particular the Sufi songs sung by U. Nusrat Fateh Ali. The tunes were very recognizable and catchy. Interesting use of mostly non-traditional instruments. Only nod to traditional instruments was the Harmonium (seated player on left).
In the lawns behind the Walnut St. library in Philadelphia's University City area.
Thanks to the organizers of the 40th St Summer concert series. Looking forward to the next one.
