George Abdo & His Orchestra

[The Art of Belly Dancing] The Art Of Belly Dancing. "Easy to listen or dance to in the "old style" arabic music mode. More acoustic than electronic instrumentation makes it an uncluttered introduction to middle eastern music. Appreciated the variety of tempos when I first purchased this title in vinyl! Sure wish George was still producing, the modern Egyptian stuff is way too over orchestrated."

[Belly Dance! The Best of George Abdo and His Flames of Araby Orchestra]

Belly Dance! The Best of George Abdo and His Flames of Araby Orchestra: The music is intended for belly dancing, although it is also great for the discerning listener. George Abdo and his contemporaries often placed full dance routines on their albums (this compilation is no exception) which provide plenty of opportunity for dancers to demonstrate their prowess. Although the music is acoustic and performed with traditional musical instruments like the oud, darbuka, and bouzouki, the sound is not traditional. He combines Turkish, American, Sephardic, Greek, Armenian, Lebanese, Syrian, Egyptian, and Greek sounds with his crooning voice and diverse instrumentation.

[Joy of Belly Dancing]

Joy of Belly Dancing. "This CD contains the most popular belly dancing music tunes that have become classics. It is most enjoyable for listening as well as for dancing. Great entertaining music for a typically Middle Eastern mood. I highly recommend it for all who appreciate multicultural music."


[Magic Of Belly Dancing]

Magic Of Belly Dancing. "Another great recording known and loved by American belly dancers. Abdo produced 5 albums in the series: Joy of/ and Magic of/ were the best of these."
