I was thinking today its been a while since we have heard people on the boards posting.
So I thought since the maqam of the month didnt really get a start... we should see how the members go about trying to perform a Taqasim that Farid
played... This is by no meens a competition its just to take different perspective at how to play one of the great one's taqasim. Regardless that
isnt the spirit of this forrum.
Please criticise as much as you can so that everyone can get and Idea of how to improve.
And try to post something if you can.
Iam going to attempt the first one. Iam not too happy with the end part but Iam shure there's a few members that can give me advice on how to nail it
better.
Thanks guys!
get this thing rolling

Thanks so much for your post, Samir. Unfortunately, my own skills on the oud are not yet at a level to enable me to post Taqasim of that magnitude
myself, but I can say that I greatly enjoy listening to everything that you and other members put up on this site. Please carry on! Mark

Hey Samir,
Great job bro. You're making tremendous progress. I can't wait till christmas break when i'll have time to spend with my oud. Can post the
original taqassim for us?

Thanksfor the comments on my playing Fellas.
Adnan are you away from your oud? or you just dont find the time to play?
Anyways if you have 2 mins to put something on record go for it!
Hopefully This wont turn out to be a one man show 
I dont want to name anyone in particular but I know there are people out there that can play a mean oud! And of course your encouraged to post even if
your new to the oud. Just get inspired by one of Farid's taqasim if you wish. Wich is what I did btw... so Adnan this isnt really a Farid Taqasim its
just inspired by one.
All za best

Well since you called me out, I cant back down on a challenge. But I need some help because I havent really done any taqsims yet. Can you tell me
what maqam its in.
thanks,
rami
SamirCanada - 10-22-2005 at 09:02 PM
Hehe.. ok its any maqam you like. But this one in particular I think Hijaz Kar Kurd. It changes at some parts of the taqasim.. but feel free to
improvise man thats what a taqasim is. I just said you could inspire yourself from FArid if you wish.
Go for it bro. Iam 100% behind you.
