2. El Mastaba Center for Folk Music :

Egypt is a diverse and rich country in every sense and its traditional musical heritage is no

exception. Each of the regions, and ethnic groups that comprise the geographic areas and people of Egypt have their distinct music. This music has always been a part of the Egyptian identity and it reflects the history, the socioeconomic transformations and

collective memory of this nation. El Mastaba seeks to mitigate the threat of extinction facing traditional music by creating an appreciation and awareness of its value to communities and to cultural identities that is expressed in market value, encouraging younger generations to see this as an economically viable profession. What is unique about

this idea is that it sees local communities as the means to achieve change. El Mastaba Centre for Egyptian Folk Music was founded in Cairo in 2000 by Zakaria Ibrahim,with

the aims to preserve, archive, document and develop this music. Link to Organization :
