Ma'luf
The maluf (Arabic: مالوف Ma'lūf) (French: Malouf) is a genre of art music in the Andalusian classical music tradition of Algeria, Libya and Tunisia.[1] It was revived in the 1920s by the French musicologist Baron Rodolphe d'Erlanger. A detailed description of Malouf in Tunisia can be found under "Music of Tunisia".
