Cheers,
I'm an Oud player, still learning. But I find this video more helpful than most oud tutorials, awesome, thank you.
You are most welcome Fihril. I understand your situation, when I was a beginner student back in Egypt it was very challenging to learn and understand concepts due to the way it was explained.
I wrote a book called “Arabic music for fretless guitar”. It is full of technique exercises, compositions, explanations, etc. Although it is originally made for fretless guitar is 100% applicable to oud. In fact, most of the stuff there comes from what I learnt from oud players in the Middle East.
I think it will help you much in your learning.

Right on Mohammad.
hey dude check out guitar prasanna, hes a classical carnatic guitarist!
Hey thanks Bhaiya, I will check him out. 🙂
@@FernandoPerezGuitar yeah dude he is working towards establishing the electric guitar as a legit Indian classical guitar , which is why the puritans have ostracised him from mainstream classical music labelling him a gimmick. He’s a wonderful musician thoigh
@@abcd1234565555 Well, he needs some better production and just pursue his music. The more he cares about proving that the more resistance he will find. But if he just make high quality productions and good music then he will get even further.
@@FernandoPerezGuitar well said brother. He has done some interesting collaborations with Berkeley college ensembles and was even featured on the PRS Guitar RUclips channel.

Both turkish and arabic music are Persian or Iranian consider the names nahawnd bayat rast segah ajam ..... are all Persian names
Exactly Mohammad. Persian music is said to have inspired the systems used by Arabs and Turkish musicians. Even Kurdish. The spelling of many names might look different but they refer to the same. When it comes to playing the music their different techniques used make the music sound very different. However, the core is almost the same.
And Persian people were playing Persian music even before being named “Persian”.
In reality, it is same as saying that all European music is Italian since all notation uses Italian words.
@@TPITEOTG well, as far as we know people have been making music since very early times. It does not really matter if later they got names like Persian, Turkish or Arabs. Humans just like to make music. It is good for their soul.
However, to say that all Europe plays Italian music just because they use a written language mainly developed by Italians is going a little far.
English, French, Spanish, Italians as well as other nations use the same ABC alphabet but we don’t say their languages are all the same.
Nationalities have little to do with creating music. Even inside of the same one country we can find many different styles of music.
The same happens with politics, frontiers, religions, etc. They have no jurisdiction on the realm of music.
@@FernandoPerezGuitar - I was just exaggerating, just to show that if we use XYZ language to describe de-facto musical rules discovered thousands years ago, it does not mean that XYZ invented this music.
Take the song "Sari Gelin", so many ethnicities believe it is "their song", although in this specific case it is titled in Azerbaijani language.
And BTW, it is called "Muqam" in China and some other countries...
It seems to me, people were playing melodies ("microtonal") for many thousands of years, and not only in some parts of Middle-East, and 12-tone split of octave was invented at times of Johann Sebastian Bach in Europe, for harmonies. To play chords on pipe organ (and other types of keyboards). Many modern instruments are still "fretless", needless to mention the instrument given to us with our birth: our voice ;) so that I am not afraid learning fretless, if I can sing - I can play fretless guitar too.
No, Maqam is not invented in Persia. But I might be really really wrong... maybe it was invented in Persia... it is not just "microtonal", it is kind of systematized rules for this music, which happened obviously in Persia (or at least when Persia was "sponsoring" such research in music, when it was rich prosper empire)
@@TPITEOTG Totally agree. I believe that as long as we keep looking for where things come from we will be in a never-ending thread. It is all connected. Laws of physics and the human being is the same in any corner of the planet. Too much theorizing and brain-talk-vomiting is very tiring.
That is the beauty of oral tradition.
This guitar sound almost like oud
Hey Simon, that is the idea. Although nowadays I am using a standard guitar (not fretless) for that type of music. It is more practical and more accessible. I see you play guitar, here is a video that might help you if you want to try this type of music: ruclips.net/video/fTzbTtK0LiI/видео.htmlsi=SgsXZhJQSyG3j-7k
