I remember there was a documentary some 10 years ago
which has followed him and his fellow musicians (Abraham Salman
on the Qanun, Jojo Mousa & Felix Mizrahi on the violin, Albert Elias
on the Nay, among others) reminiscing on their time in the Rashut-
Hashidur Orchestra (1970s) where once Moshe Eliyahu, Ya3akov
Mourad and Faisa Rujdi were the head performers, and lamenting
the relative decay of the Classical Arabic and particularly their Iraqi
musical culture in Israel. I think Yair Dalal was invovled in the
making of the film, and he's also performed with them some pieces.
