Thread: Winter themed music?

Hi everyone,
I will be a "winter" themed belly dance show later this winter, and I am wondering if any of you have brilliant ideas of "winter" themed belly dance songs (or costume ideas). Not Christmassy/holiday though!

I guess they don't really have hardcore winter in the Levant, huh... but for me if you want to evoke frost and chill you'd be hard pressed to go past some qanoon and maybe nay, and a costume of silvery beads. With a white body stocking or mesh cutouts of course because it is cold and you don't want warm flesh tones confusing things. If you do fur, I've always thought a little white-fur edged bolero jacket would look rather Snow Queenish over a dress.

They do get snow in the mountains of Lebanon, but I don't know of any songs that reference it.

There is a song with Fairouz called "Talj Talj" which I think means "snow snow".

"A Time of Peace" by Brothers of the Baladi.

Traditional Christmas songs performed on acoustic instruments, really lovely!

Oops, just realized the OP wasn't looking for Christmassy music, but perhaps others might enjoy the CD :)

"Talj" does mean "snow," but if the OP doesn't want Christmas music, it might not work. Talj Talj - Arabic lyrics and translation
