This is one of the artists currently influencing my own music and compositions. The vocals for the text, are sung beautifully but not in English, there is also no accompanying music. It is very hypnotic and enchanting.
This is verbatim from artist's description.
To recite the Quran with a high degree of perfection requires training that can last more than a decade. Usually the qari(reciter)has memorized the entire quranic text, which is approximately 600 pages.
It's a well known fact among Muslims that the Archangel Gabriel taught Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, who in turn taught his companions. From them the art has been spread from generation to the next.
Today thousands of people memorize the Quran. Some of them perfected their art to an amazing level of touching the soul, and uplifting the spirit. It's what Imam Arafi calls,"Ultra Music". The prophet is reported to have said, that the one who recites the Quran in a beautiful voice is akin to the angels.
Imam Arafi has been living in the Lone Star State for the past 20 years.
The English translation of the meanings is read by Brian Pierce, a promising vocalist.
The image is designed by Feras Fanari, an accomplished artist.
The work on this CD took about a year. It's intended for the enjoyment and enlightenment of audiences around the world.
