I really enjoyed this clip of Mattar Mohammed. I have a question regarding the performance. Is the part that is played over the maksum rhythm starting
around 3:34 based on a known song? If so what is the song?
no..not a song to my knowlegde...just rhythmic improvisations on Bayaati G. In some of his recordings he does that a lot and in some he played a known
song. In this clip in particualr atl min 6:34 he plays "ya meet masa", a song, then back to his impro. The song is bayati too so he moved on from his
original impro, passed by the song and then finishing with his own impro.
Jazz but oriental
