Who was the early 20th-century Egyptian composer and singer, nicknamed 'the Sheikh of the Musicians', who was the first to incorporate Western instruments and polyphony into Arabic orchestral music?

• A Mohamed Abdel Wahab
• B Sayyid Darwish ✓
• C Mohamed El Qasabgi
• D Zakaria Ahmed

Sayyid Darwish (1892–1923) revolutionized Arabic music by blending Egyptian folk idioms with Western classical orchestration, and his song 'Biladi Biladi' — adapted from a speech by Mustafa Kamel — was adopted as the national anthem, though Darwish himself died aged 31 before ever hearing it in that role.
