hard to hear the zills but anyone who's seen /has the video, they have a very distinct sound

if you forward to about 28 second mark that's the number..

I always thought the troupe used the Saroyan Al-Taj but I might be wrong:

Big BIG zills :oP

you rule. i'm treating myself.

may not be what the troupe uses, but when suhaila danced here a few years ago she used zildjians (or however you spell it...).

Just to add my 2 cents, at Rakkasah, Suhaila sold zills with her name on it - BIG Saroyans, I'd guess.

I took her zil class a few years ago at Cairo Carnivale, and she was using Turquoise size C's.
