On Hassan El Aribi and the Malouf in Libya:
Hassan Uraibi (1933 - 2009; also spelled Arabi, Araibi, Araiby, or Oraibi) was a
Libyan composer and one of the pioneers of Libyan music, performing Andalusian
music known as Malouf. During his lifetime he has received many prestigious
medals and awards, as well as chairing various positions in Libya and the Arab
world, such as the Arabic Music Board and Libyan Music Festival.
He was born in 1933 in the Sough El Guima area of Tripoli. At a young age
he moved to Benghazi and worked as an employee at Ministry of Transportation. He
was soon discovered as a singer by Mohamed Sudagi who gave him an opportunity
which he did not waste and joined the Music Department at Benghazi's radio
station as an advisor. During this time Uraibi composed many songs for a number
of Libyan and Arab singers, including: Mohsen Attia, and Egyptologists Suad
Mohammed and Hoda Sultan. After returning to Tripoli, Uraibi founded his Malouf
ensemble in 1964 with many well-known names at that time in Libya. He was named
the first president of the Libyan music board in 1974.
Hassan Uraibi died in April 18, 2009 in Tripoli. His funeral was attended
by a number of artists and cultural officials in the country. His death came as
a shock to many Libyans who loved his timeless work.
Malouf (Arabic: مالوف Ma'lūf) is a genre of music in the Andalusian
classical tradition of Algeria, Libya and Tunisia after the Conquest of Spain in
the 15th century. It was revived in the 1920s by the French musicologist Baron
Rodolphe d'Erlanger. Though in its modern form, malouf is likely very dissimilar
to any music played more than four centuries ago, it does have its roots in
Spain and Portugal, and is closely related to genres with a similar history
throughout North Africa, including malouf's Libyan cousin, Algerian gharnati and
Moroccan ala or Andalusi. During the Ottoman era, malouf was highly influenced
from Turkish music. Even now most of malouf examples are very similar to Turkish
classical music. Malouf is played by small orchestras, consisting of violins,
drums, sitars and flutes. Modern malouf has some elements of Berber music in the
rhythms, but is seen as a successor to the cultural heights reached by Muslim
Andalusia. Malouf has been called "an emblem of (Tunisian) national identity."
Nevertheless, malouf can not compete commercially with popular music, much of it
Egyptian, and it has only survived because of the efforts of the Tunisian
government and a number of private individuals. Malouf is still performed in
public, especially at weddings and circumcision ceremonies, though recordings
are relatively rare. The term malouf translates as familiar or customary.
