Al-Jadida is an album by the Lebanese oud player and composer Rabih
Abou-Khalil , fusing traditional Arab music with jazz, which was
recorded in 1990 and released on the Enja label the following year.
The Allmusic review by Ron Wynn stated "Rabih Abou-Khalil, among the
rare Arabic musicians who have recorded and played extensively with jazz
musicians, successfully navigates the middle ground between traditional
North African sounds and hard bop. Besides the leader's oud and flute,
alto saxophonist Sonny Fortune provides the blues bite; bassist Glen
Moore, the rhythmic connection, and percussionists Ramesh Shotham and
Nabil Khaiat, provide the African seasoning"

Al-Jadida es un álbum del intérprete de laúd y compositor libanés Rabih
Abou-Khalil , que fusiona la música tradicional árabe con el jazz, que
fue grabado en 1990 y publicado en el sello Enja al año siguiente.
La reseña de Allmusic de Ron Wynn afirmaba: "Rabih Abou-Khalil, entre
los raros músicos árabes que han grabado y tocado extensamente con
músicos de jazz, navega con éxito en el punto medio entre los sonidos
tradicionales del norte de África y el hard bop. Además del oud y la
flauta del líder, el saxofonista alto Sonny Fortune proporciona la
mordida del blues; el bajista Glen Moore, la conexión rítmica, y los
percusionistas Ramesh Shotham y Nabil Khaiat, proporcionan la sazón
africana"
