Samai Ajam


Does anyone know of a recording of this great piece by Rawhi al Khammash?

Thanks so much! Yes it is. I think it is every bit as elegant and lyrical as his Samai Hijazkar Kurd which people have been discussing here. It was the first major Samai that I was taught and I am still working on playing it well a year later without losing interest. So nice to hear it being playied--and on an Arabic oud it sounds like, rather than a floating bridge. Can't tell who is playing...
I will upload the score when I figure out how.
Thanks again

Thanks a lot for the partition.
I have to say I re-discovered the flavor of maqam ajam quite recently.
And especially the fact it is often used as a modulation coming from maqam saba.
Saba and ajam ouchairan are very good friends. ;)
