in Kiswahili and is popular in the coastal cities of Tanzania and
Kenya. "The Sounds of Taraab" features vocalist Alsarah
accompanied by oud master Haig Manookian, Ismail Butera on accordion

STEPHANE WREMBEL: French virtuoso Guitarist Stephane Wrembel seems
to have channeled both the technique and the fire of Django Reinhardt.
He studied for years the manouche (the French Gypsies) but has also
gotten deep into American vernacular musical styles. His weekly
sets will mix up the traditional Django repertoire along gypsy swing
re-interpretations of standards. His core band includes Washboard
Kit master David Langlois and Jared Engel as well as frequent collaborator
violinist Olivier Manchon and a host of special guests.
