Answer to Question 1

 A vast collection of twenty-two countries, where Arabic is the official spoken and written language
 and . . . home to a surprising diversity of peoples that includes Jews, Christians, and Muslims.
 Worlds of Music, p. 509: Beginning in northwest Africa, Arab world countries include Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt, Sudan, Djibouti, Somalia, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Israel, . . . and the Palestinian territories of Israel. The Arabian Gulf, . . . another distinct area, includes Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. Oman, and Yemen.

Answer to Question 2

 The Nueva Cancin song of Victor Jara, performed by the ensemble Inti Illimani
 Bolivian zampoa-ensemble playing a k'antu
 The Ecuadorian Quichua sanjun, Muyu muyari, warmigu
 Galo Maigua's sanjun, his intended autobiographical Ilumn tiyu
 The African-Ecuadorian version of a sanjun performed by Chota River Valley musicians
 The Peruvian wayno performed by Chaskinakuy, which shows the globalization of the Andean ensemble phenomenon
 Music that accompanies a Quichua wawa velorio ritual
 Refined solo harp music by the son of a renowned central Ecuadorian harpist who ultimately followed in his father's footsteps . . .

 An example of the Afro-Peruvian land genre that captures the local coastal caa life and culture
 Worlds of Music suggests all of the examples speak to strongly felt political concerns; are deep-rooted musical forms of expression; and detailed and attentive attempts, from afar, to capture the overall character of an Andean song-dance type; and the dedicated efforts to recreate local musical style.
