I would say it is more like a master class than a contest, of course the chance of doubling your money is good too.” – Erik Brown Check out photos from February by Chris Yetter. There is a song list associated with each of the two Belly Dance Off bands -- House of Tarab and MB Orchestra. On the evening of the show, each dancer will draw a song from this pool. This is the song the band will play for her. All are timeless Arabic classics with many versions available on popular belly dance and/or Middle Eastern music CDs. The songs that MB Orchestra will play for the dancers are: 1. Leylet Hobb 2. Princess of Cairo/Sea of Alexandra 3. Sahra 4. Ana Fi Intizarak 5. Alf Leyla 6. Aziza 7. *Gana El Hawa The song “Sahra” may be less familiar by name, though it is played a lot for dancers by Arabic bands. The only reference I've been able to find of it so far is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJ6B-8T0FQo. I may upload a recording I have of it here, possibly uploading the other songs as well. *Number 7 will only be added into the pool if there are seven registered dancers. The songs that House of Tarab will play for the dancers are: 1. Sa’it Ma-bashoofak Ganbi 2. Azizah 3. Hebbina 4. Gamil Gamal 5. Nassam Alayna al-Hawa 6. Ana Fi Intizarak 7. Alf Leyla All can be found on House of Tarab’s CDs.
