Mazaher Ensemble at Makan

Mazaher is an ensemble where women play a leading role. The musicians of Mazaher are Umm Sameh, Umm Hassan, and Nour El Sabah, who are among the last remaining Zar practitioners in Egypt. The music of Mazaher is inspired by the three different styles of Zar music practiced in Egypt-the Egyptian or Upper Egyptian Zar, Abu Gheit Zar and the Sudanese or African Zar.
