In its most frequent configuration, a chaoui music group includes usually a zorna, a gasba, a bendir and one or more singers. Modern chaoui can also use non-traditional instruments such as the rhythm guitar. One of the characteristics of chaoui music is that it does not exceed three notes, as in all Berber music, chaoui music is very tonal.
