Whenever I travel, I like to listen to the local music. I usually return from my holidays with a few cd's.
Morocco has a variety of styles - Arabic, Arabic-Andalucian, Berber, Gnawa or Gnaoua(a blend of Arab/Berber), Rai, Arabic/belly dance, contempory, and fusions of these including rap/hip hop/dance beats.
The Lonely Planet Guide lists some popular cd's and artistes, so armed with this list I set out to find a cd stall.
I found one in the souk, and spent quite an amusing time with the stall holder finding a suitable selection. However, I needed to exchange some money, so explained I'd return next day to collect them and pay. Despite making a careful note of the stalls location, I couldn't find it .
This stall in Djemma el Fnaa managed to find me a similar selection. The stall holders were very helpful and friendly, playing selections from discs for me to listen to.
I purchased cd's by Hassam Hakmoun, Najat Aatabou (2 popular contempory artistes),
Andalucian music, and an Arabic/ Belly Dancing disc by Rafat Misso and Hossam Ramzy
15 -20dh try to haggle if buying a few (tho' this didn't work for me!) Leave a Comment Theme: MusicAddress: Djemma el FnaaDirections: Towards the edge of the square, near the nut/dried fruit sellers. Also souks and shops around the square.

I was so enthusiastic about all the drum shops I visited that day. I did an excellent job of getting address info from them all. The bad news i do not now know which picture goes with which address!!
As a result, I am going to list the addresses and phone numbers in one list knowing that whichever one you end up, in you won't be disappointed (as long as you BARGAIN)
