Traditional Palestinian Zagal Singing Art



Zagal is a very Palestinian form of singing that fits many platforms. It's a way to deliver messages about society and about politics. It can also be used to talk about the loves ones, family and being away from the mother land. It's focused on the lyrics and the natural flow of those words.

Usually older people do those songs, and often you find them at weddings and parties. They are often featured in Palestinian cultural nights. See this man sticks it to all Arab countries and about how horrible things have become.

This guy has some very harsh words for just about everyone out there, and he even has less than flattering words for Palestine. There are also some religious folks who use this art to preach virtue since it requires no music making it perfect for Islamist.

I have included a number of sample for this from of traditional singing with a variety of styles and messages. there is also a women Zagal singer and an interview with Russia Today.
