Yemen music and dance ‘Sheikh al Tayer’ Part 1

Posted on by


Yemeni music and dance with singers Yousef Abadaji and Abdulrahman Al Akhfash. This is the first part of the song ‘Sheikh al Tayer’ (Ruler/King of the Birds). Thanks to Mohamed Nasser for the singers’ names.
The knife worn by the men is called a jambiya ( جنبية‎ ) and in Yemen, all males, even some very young ones, wear one.
