Song Title: The Nile

Artist: Eliane Elias

Year Released: 1991
Wikipedia Summary: Eliane Elias is a Brazilian jazz pianist, singer, and composer. While primarily known for her work in jazz and Brazilian music, Elias's eclectic musical interests have occasionally led her to explore diverse global influences, potentially including elements of Middle Eastern music. Her sophisticated harmonic approach and rhythmic sensibilities sometimes incorporate modal structures and complex rhythms that could be seen as sharing some similarities with Middle Eastern musical concepts. However, any direct Middle Eastern influences in her music are likely subtle and integrated into her broader jazz and Brazilian music vocabulary rather than being a primary focus of her work.
