Mawwal "Kull illy Habb" >>
Mawwal Rast "Fein ya gameel wa3dak"
Abul-3ila Mohamed was one of Umm Kulthum's earliest teachers and composers. This very early recording is from the first decade of the 20th century, and it beautifully illustrates the Secondary Saba modulation, much more common at that time than later in the 20th century.
