Abdel Gadir Salim (velvet-voiced master of swaying Sudanese song and ud player extraordinaire) started to sing and to play music in Dilling, the town in which he was born, in the south of Kordofan. Inspired by the night-time singing of local songs - merdoum, ayjako, senjaq , singing and clapping that you can hear up to 20 miles away on a clear midnight - he realised that he should look to Sudanese roots for melodic and rhythmic motifs to further develop his music.
The group heard on this GlobeStyle recording is a special one caught on a flying visit to the UK for a one-off concert, and features one of the top violinists of Sudan, Mohammed Abdulla M'hamadia.
