Ali Kirdar's Biography

From when he was a child, Ali, native Arab drummer has always been attracted to the music and particularly to the sound of the Tabla.  As a young man, Ali was attracted to the sound ofTabla (drums) and the different amazing and beautiful looks. His own collection of tables chosen carefully and bought from all around the world by best Tabla makers from Egypt (Cairo) Hasan and turkey (Istanbul) by Emin, they produce the most beautiful sound.  Ali admires them everyday and is very proud to have them and to use them too.

Ali Kirdar has been actively and seriously involved in drumming for few years now.  His mentor the master Farouk El Safi has been giving him all the tips on how to drum with love and make the audience enjoy his technique and performance.

He is currently still developing his own drumming style by drumming live in different occasions and participation in Nadine sections of dancing to rhythms using live Tabla for the DOM and the TAC.

Ali Kirdar is trying to draw live Drumming together with Bellydance in order to make a beautiful and realistic picture of the Authentic Raqs Sharqi.  

Ali’s participation in helping with drumming in dance classes and workshops, teaching Tabla and being Farouk El Safi’s official assistant have positively improved his knowledge working with both platforms.

His main dream is to make Tabla We Raqs School of Egyptian Bellydance and Drumming the right place for students to understand and visualise the physical connection between the TABLA (rhythm) and DANCE.
