History [ edit ]
It is said that sawt was established in Kuwait by the poet, composer, singer and oud player Abdallah al-Faraj (1836-1901/1903).[1] [2] [2] Saleh and Daoud Al-Kuwaity were widely considered among one of its earliest pioneers.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7]
Description [ edit ]
Sawt is a complex form of urban music, originally performed on the 'ud (plucked lute) and mirwas (a drum), with a violin later supplementing the arrangement.
Two men perform the dance, which is called "Zaffan". Al-Sout is performed only at night gatherings of men. It is called "Samra" (nightly chat).
