Palestinian traditional music is a rich tapestry that weaves together the historical and cultural threads of the Palestinian heritage. It is characterized by intricate melodies, soulful singing, and the use of classic Middle Eastern instruments such as the oud, qanun, ney, and darbuka. Additionally, the music often incorporates distinctive rhythmic patterns and modal structures known as maqamat. This genre is deeply rooted in the social and ceremonial aspects of Palestinian life, manifesting in forms like dabke dance music, which is popular during celebrations, and more contemplative, improvisational pieces that express the emotional depth and resilience of the Palestinian people. Through ensembles and solo artists alike, the genre is a conduit for storytelling, cultural expression, and the assertion of national identity.
