Hamza El Din, the celebrated Nubian musician whose rich fusion of Arabic and Nubian sounds entranced audiences worldwide and inspired colleagues like the Grateful Dead and Kronos Quartet, died Monday, May 22nd, at a Berkeley hospital from a gallbladder infection. He was 76.
A longtime Oakland resident, Mr. El Din was a subtle master of the oud, the Arabic precursor of the lute, and the tar, the single-skinned drum that originated in Nubia, the ancient upper Nile land that was largely submerged after the Aswan Dam was built in the 1960s. Mr. El Din sought to preserve his native culture, singing Nubian songs and stories in a warm, reedy voice that merged with his instrumental overtones to create music of quiet intensity and beauty.
«It was mesmerizing. Hypnotic and trancelike,’’ said Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart. «Hamza taught me about the romancing of the drum. His music was very subtle and multilayered.
«He was a deep listener,’’ added Hart, who practiced daily for six years to master the tar Mr. El Din gave him. Sometimes the music they played together was so soft «we could hardly hear ourselves. He’d just suck you into this vortex, and all of a sudden what was quiet seemed loud in its intensity. He suspended time.’‘
Mr. El Din, who created music for «The Black Stallion» and other films, first played with the Dead in ‘78 at Egypt’s Great Pyramid of Giza and joined the band a few months later at San Francisco’s Winterland with a group of Sufi drummers. He was a serenely joyous man whose glowing black face was framed by his flowing white garb and headdress.

You didn't make that point clear in the first post.... informally Asian mean "Mongolian" people from East and Southeast Asia..I'm Nubian so I know what I'm talking about.. Culturally speaking Nubians are Arabs. Like most of the Arab countries that had it's own languages and cultures but in the end they formed a mix between them and the Arabic culture... And why not 100% cause there are Nubian tribes in chad and the surrounding areas

hmm.. Syria is in southwest Asia not in the Caucasus. There's no "Asian race" it's the most phenotypically diverse continent on the planet (no surprise being the largest by far), There are Caucasoid Asians like in Saudia and Iran, There are East Asians there are even Black Asian people like the Andaman Islanders and Aborigine Southeast Asian peoples like the Aeta in the Philipines and the Mani of Thailand. And 90%? why not 100% at that? It is an unspoken scientific fact that most of the north Sudanese are Arabized Nubians, they don't see themselves as Nubians, does that make em 90% Nubian?

Commenting on the post below me,... 90% of the Nubians are Arabs!! ( most of them are concentrated in Egypt and Sudan) they speak Arabic beside their own Nubian language,, You were right about the Language point,,, but the Syrians became suddenly Asian?!! I know it's in Asia but they are of Caucasian ethnicity and Arabic culture!

Arab is a national denomination based on language. What unites all Arabs isn't religion or even a fixed ethnicity it's the language and the culture is based around this beautiful language. There are black Arabs (Sudan) and white Arabs(Iraq), there are Asian Arabs (Syria) and there are African Arabs (Morocco). And btw, Hamza wasn't an Arab he was a Nubian.

Lol why do you ascribe people roles based on idiotic cliches? Did you consider the fact that most of North Africa is Islamic, and much of the dress and idiosyncrasies of "Arab" culture are rooted in Islam? Man, do you watch Fox News or something? You have a very warped and ignorant view of the world.
