I don't read Arabic so can't tell you the manes of the books. All I know is that my teacher, who is from Damascus said that they are used in the
Damascus Conservatory. I didn't mean to suggest that the method was adapted from Munir Bashir, only the high ff tuning.
Thanks to everyone for the advice. I'll place another order soon Brian. BTW, I'm surprised to learn that Anouar Brahem uses the high ff tuning; I
never would have guessed as he has such a deep warm sound. |
