Muḥammad ‘Umar

محمّد عمر

Roles: Instrumentalist; qānūn

Muhammad Umar played qanun in early recordings.

AMAR identifies him accompanying Abd al-Hayy Hilmi’s Baidaphon version of Sahi al-Gufun and discusses the exchange between singer and instrumentalist. The catalogue’s attributed solo taqsim records still require original-label review.
