Can I have a list of easier songs and link of sheet music to them please :) I guess im really looking for songs that were popular and easily recognizable like fairouz and Oum Kalthoom, I have sheet music by both but the ones I have are kinda difficult, any suggestions thanks! :)

Hi alibaba

I'd try Lamma bada yatasanna, ah ya zein, shatti ya dinya and hibeena.

Hi - here is the sheet music for Lamma Bada in G minor. I find the version in G easier to start with, but here is also a version in C minor which is found on Issa Boulos's very helpful music archives site:

There are also various youtube versions of this popular song if you need to hear it. Happy playing!

nassam alayna el hawa is a good one to start with for Fairuz. I believe you asked for help on that one before.
I can play it for you on video slowly and send it to you.
let me know if your interested.

Other then that for Oum Koulthoum the trick is to divide the song in many small pieces and learn some bits and pieces and put them together after.
I find Enta Omri is a good one to start with. But you should try and play a song that you really love it will make it easier that way since you know the song by heart.
