Hi guys,

What are some famous or popular pieces or songs in Maqam Hijaz in maqsum/baladi/saidi and malfuf (4/4, 2/4) rhythms.

I would love to hear your favorites or any recommendations of good pieces to learn or listen to.

Hijaz is a popular maqam , so there are plenty of beautiful pieces

Zeina & Khatwit Habibi (M.A. Wahab) are great, various changes in rythmic styles also .

Raqsat Al Jammal (Farid El Atrashe)

Fog El Nakhal

There should be more ofcourse
