Sudan

Sudan sits at a crossroads of African and Arab musical worlds, producing a rich diversity of traditions that vary dramatically across its regions. From the pentatonic melodies of the Nuba Mountains to the Arabic-influenced maqam music of the north and the polyrhythmic percussion of the south, Sudanese music reflects one of Africa's most complex and layered cultural landscapes.
