Arabia - an exciting modern oriental choreography to express freedom, unity and joy

Music: Arabia by Lebanese violinist Hanine El Alam
Here are some words from Hanine the composer herself about what she tries to achieve in her music and this particular track which inspired me:
"She [Hanine] firmly believes that very little can hope to compete with oriental beats, her mission was to prove to her audience that while she-as an international arabic violinist- embraces diversity in music, she owes it to her own knowledge of oriental music to ensure arabic tunes prevail when pit against western beats. And while the arabic violin has, for times immemorial, been associated with forlornness and relatively sombre thoughts, she sought to alter it and put an end to the stereotype by creating livelier, happier beats that it may appeal to different audiences".
