Hi Hatem!
How exciting! Does Dr. Abdel Hamid read and write Engish? Are you able to give any more info on this course yourself?
Thank for letting us know!

Hi Adel,
Unfortunately, Dr. Atef doesn't communicate in English. However, he has a few people to help with translation, including myself.
He told me a few details about the course. I already asked for my copy :-)
Best regards,
Hatem

Salam Hatem,
Dr Atif is an amazing oudist/ teacher with a broad knowledge of Arabic Maqams/ music.
I really enjoyed the few videos/ lessons on youtube, I'm sure the CD/ DVD will be a good addition.
Keep us posted please.

Yes, please keep us posted. How do we order the DVD from outside Egypt? I could mail him but I dont speak or read Arabic.

This is great news, I don't speak Arabic(yet)...I'm looking forward to finding out how to get this DVD.
THANKS!!!

Dear friends, I promise to get back to you once I am done with some family trouble. I do apologize for not being too responsive.

No worries Hatem, no need to apologise but thank you and I hope you get your troubles sorted.

Dear friends,
I just received an email from Dr. Atef about finishing the first and second levels.
Feel free to email Dr. Atef about the details.
Best regards,

info.
Thanks
