Arabic music has a long history of interaction with many other regional musical styles and genres. It influenced and has been influenced by Ancient Greek, Persian, Assyrian, Turkish, Indian, African (i.e. Berber & Swahili) and European music (i.e. Flamenco). The common style that developed is usually called Islamic, Arab or Oriental, though in fact it transcends religious, ethnic, geographical, and linguistic boundaries, stretching from Morocco to India.
