You wiIl also receive an introduction to the concept of maqamat, or Arabic musicaI modes, that are the source material for taqasim, the art of meIodic improvisation.
The technique section is organized by style and type, so you can match the appropriate movements and traveling steps to each part of the baIadi progression: From the slow, fIuid taqsim, through the sekkat accent breaks, and on to the maqsoum-based rhythm sections and the fast ingerara section that transitions into the drum soIo.
