Oriental Jewish Music

I have come across some problems in my work as archivist for our Jewish
Music Archive and am seeking help from this wonderful list. 
I am trying to categorise our material into Ashkenazi, Sephardi and
Oriental Jewish music and would like your opinions on the following:
When one is referring to the music of Oriental Jews, which
geographical/cultural/stylistic groups does this cover? 
And would you use the term Sephardi interchangeably with Oriental for
some (all?) of those groups?
Many thanks in anticipation
Bronia
