Ehky Ya Masr A Tale of a Drum and a Song: Exploring The Mesaharaty

“A Tale of a Drum and a Song: Exploring the Mesaharaty” by Shaza
Walid, @shazawalid. Perhaps the first thing to come to your mind
when you think about Ramadan is family gatherings, syrupy desserts,
colorful lanterns and of course ... the mesaharaty. In this
episode, Shaza Walid takes us on a journey to explore the history
of the mesaharaty and his iconic drumbeat and special songs. But
it’s not the story of a man this time, as it has always been over
the past decades. Listen to Shaza’s feature to know about the story
of the most prominent female mesaharaty in Egypt. “A Tale of a Drum
and a Song: Exploring the Mesaharaty” is a part of the Ehky Ya Masr
إحكي يا مصر Ramadan series. You can share your experience of the
mesaharaty in your neighborhood on our Facebook page:
