The most common folk music of Morocco has a history going back to the early 17th century when the black African Gnawa people were brought to Morocco as slaves. The music is often referred to as Afro-Moroccan Trance music with instruments being crude string instruments made from boxes, sticks and sinew. The string music is often accompanied by chakchakas, a Moroccan traditional steel twin castanet. Afro-Moroccan Trance music is a familiar sound today in the madenas and sucks of Morocco.
