BBC Arabic Service/Red
Bee Media
This is one of a series of promos for the rollout of the BBC's Arabic service, commissioned by Red Bee Media.
Instrumentation is dumbeks for percussion, octave mandola for strings and a raita for the woodwind (it's a double reed instrument akin to a mediaeval shawm).
