In 2009 in Aleppo, Syria, A small group of Sufi musicians band together to preserve the nearly forgotten melodies, songs, and poems unique to the ancient city. In 2010 Jason Hamacher was in Aleppo to document the ancient prayers, hallowed rituals, and sacred spaces of Syria's religious minorities. Hamacher heard about a secretive group of Sufi musicians that practiced "the old traditions." Intrigued by the mysterious deion, Hamacher sought an introduction to the group through a mutual friend and became the first Westerner to hear NAWA preform.
