Influenced mainly by Arab-Andalusian, Arab, and Western cultures, Tunisia’s most famous type of classical music is maluf, which was brought from Andalusia in the 15th century and is played by small orchestras. • Maluf is based on qasida, a type of classical Arabic poetry, and its most important structural element is the suite, known as nawba. Folk music also flourishes in Tunisia, played on Arab instruments such as the darbuka (goblet drum) and the oud (lute), or more specifically, Tunisian ones like the mezoued (bagpipes).
