The beauty of Tunisia is well known to travelers, but the richness of her culture may not be as universally recognized. To that point, Ez-Zouhour brings to light a veritable treasure trove of traditional songs and music. The traditional elements of oud, qanun, darbouka, tar, bendir, and duf blend seamlessly with violin and double bass to weave a bright, varied tapestry depicting life in Tunisia from yesterday to today.
