Arabesque music

Arabesque music is a style characterized by intricate, flowing melodies and ornamental motifs inspired by Middle Eastern and North African traditions. It often features modal scales, complex rhythmic patterns, and rich, decorative ornamentation that evoke a sense of ornamental artistry. The genre emphasizes melodic beauty and rhythmic intricacy, blending classical, folk, and contemporary influences to create a lush, textured soundscape. Arabesque music can be found in traditional instruments like the oud and qanun, as well as in modern compositions that draw upon its distinctive melodic and rhythmic elements to evoke an exotic or mystical atmosphere.
