Hey Samir,
Very nice, youngman!!!!
I am sure that I am not the only one who sees the significant improvement in your technique over a relativley short period.
You are very talented. Keep it up, dude!

Thanks Guys!
I owe it entirely to mikes web site. Since I learnt everything I know from the learn to play website. The downside tho from not having a teacher guide me in the begining is that I have developed nasty habits for the positioning of my left hand so Iam trying to work on using the right finger for the right note now. And of course I never stop thinking about geting my risha more precise. Its been a little over 2 years that I have been playing now. So it shows that its entirely possible to learn. But I must say that the begining was the hardest and now its really a lot of fun to play as where it used to feel like a chore.
Thanks again peoples
Iam waiting to hear all of your playing. I think its time for a maqam of the month.
