Music Masala presents not just the music, but the lives and passions of south east Queensland’s culturally diverse artists. Truly a spicy blend of music and life, 4EB is proud to again be ‘Sharing The World With You!’

Ostoorah - Ah Ya Helou

Celebrated Lebanese vocalist, Samira sings Arabic classical, folk and original
songs from the Levant accompanied by musicians from Iran and Australia.

Ostoorah’s virtuosic oud (fretless lute) played by Michael Taylor, bell-like santur (Persian hammered dulcimer) played by Masoud Kamgarpour, and soulful shah kaman (Persian spike-fiddle) by Greta Kelly perfectly accompany Samira’s rich, passionate and nuanced voice.

Ah Ya Helou is a Syrian folk song that is part of the al-qudud al-halabiyya tradition of popular music. It is a love song in makam Beyat.
