Oud Classes in the SF Bay Area (June 11 to July 31)

alim - 6-17-2016 at 02:51 PM

Omar Abbad will be teaching Oud classes and offering private lessons from June 11 to July 31. I took classes from him when he was here last time and I can say he is an excellent teacher with I logical teaching methodology (and he has his own method books). I highly recommend him and will be taking classes with him again. I have no financial interest in this, just a satisfied customer! :)

The schedule is attached.

Cheers,
