About
Mizmar:
In Arabic music, a mizmar (Arabic: مزمار) is any single or double reed wind instrument. In Egypt mizmar usually refers to a surnay.
Mizmar is also a term used for a group of musicians, usually a duo or trio, that play a mizmar instrument along with an accompaniment of one or two double-sided bass drums, known in Arabic as tabl baladi or simply tabl. Mizmars are usually played in Egypt at either weddings or as an accompaniment to belly dancers. In Lebanon and Syria, it is influenced by the Turkish zurna, a higher-pitched version of the mizmar, and may also be known in those countries as a zamr or zamour, as well as mizmar. In Morocco a similar instrument is called ghaita or rhaita. Along with belly dancing, the mizmar may accompany the dabke, a folkloric line dance found in Lebanon and Syria..
