About Talj El Milad
Product Description Since the Rahbani Brothers, coupled with the angelic voice of Fayrouz, released their Christmas tape in the early sixties, few recordings have been made to fill that gap. This album comes in a critical time to fill the void for Arabic Christmas carols. Eleven tracks altogether, with nine joyful Christmas tunes including a short version of Award nominated "Jayee La'Enna" song as a Bonus track plus two original compositions, all with Arabic lyrics, fill the air with joy and peace. Review The real secret to the success of this extraordinary collection may well be the lyrics. Those of us who don't speak Arabic may not realize that these songs are not merely translated but are in most cases completely rewritten to tell a whole new story. Anyone who has ever attempted to translate a song will appreciate the necessity to change lyrics in order for the meter and rhythm of the new language to match the original melody. Wafic has done that and more by putting a new spin and meaning onto these classic Christmas songs. This recording appeals to all ages as it contains many songs that include child vocals as well as songs with adult background vocals. The music is often traditional Christmas with lots of bells and chimes but also ventures into upbeat pop, middle eastern drum rhythms, and even a little jazz. --Amazon.com
