Synopsis
Album Description
Like its Maghreb neighbors Algeria and Morocco, Tunisia has a very rich musical heritage. Born in Tunis in 1884, Issirene Rozia a.k.a. Cheikh El Afrite ("The Little Devil") was a brilliant representative of one of the most splendid periods in the history of Tunisian music. His amazing voice excelled in the various styles of that great epoch: malouf, zajal, hilalian, fondo, fezzani, and tripolitan. Cheikh El Afrite had a repertoire of over 400 songs, and this collection presents the best of his work.
