sami yusuf

• uzun süredir yeşil pop özlemi çeken bünyeyi çoşturan azeri, nasheed şarkıcısı.. o nasıl bir gırtlaktır öyle. hele bir "ya mustafa ya shafi'al 'alamina" deyişi var ki, aman aman.. iokaste olup kendimi önüne atasım geldi.^*

  sami yusuf is fast becoming, or arguably is, the uk's leading nasheed singer. in muslim culture nasheeds are a popular form of music that praise the prophet (peace be upon him) and glorify allah. typically few, if any, instruments feature in a nasheed and the human voice is expected to carry the nasheed.
  
  unsurprisingly with the constraints of the nasheed form traditional nasheed artists have struggled to captivate muslim youth already immersed in the sophisticated sounds of contemporary music. however, one nasheed artist who has a growing following is sami yusuf. his training in western musical theory and the middle eastern modes (or maqams) has produced his distinctive voice that has performed to sold out venues around the world.
  
  the 23 year old artist was born into a musical family of azeri origin and his initial musical training came at an early age from his father who was a composer, poet and musician. after composing some of his own pieces sami received a scholarship to study at the royal academy of music in london. he released his first album al-mu'allim in the summer of 2003 and is part of a revival in nasheed music amongst muslim youth. here omair ali interviews sami yusuf in the wake of the success of al-mu'allim.
