about

'El Warda' ('The Rose') is so titled after Yasmina's press name: 'The English Rose of Cairo', and represents a team effort by herself, the unique talents of Nader Zakaria and Mounir Abdel Aziz, and singers Safaa Farid and Ahmed El Khatib among others. Yasmina says: 'After the success of 'Aheb Masr' producing something even better was always going to be difficult - but I am satisfied that we have risen to the challenge! I am really excited about this CD, which has a developed and sophisticated sound, depth of feeling and mix of music to satisfy even the most demanding dancer.' 'El Warda' contains newly-composed opening music, a baladi tableau of old songs with a gorgeous nostalgic feel, a high-energy Saeedi tableau and modern catchy shaabi song (both original compositions), three classical Egyptian songs with beautiful vocals, a unique drum solo with instrumentation, and a specially composed piece of modern reggaeton fusion. Definitely something for everyone.
