Forum Player's Taqsims and Songs
Hey guys... I was thinking... maybe we can all put our taqsims here... not as a competition by any means... but it'd be good inspiration for each
of us to hear different styles and ideas.
Here's a taqsim I did on Thanksgiving. This is how my oud sounds (when it's tuned)  Enjoy! What do you all think? Oh, and what maqam?

Great work TP
PROGRESS!! This is what I call progress!! I'd say it's marvelous TP. Bayati re, saba, kurd low re, gravitation to nishambour, and back to
bayat with finish on sol. Brilliant man!! I bow to ur talent, O Mighty Pharaoh  <--- Me.
Hope we won't be waiting for next thanxgiving to get another piece like this. Keep up the good work man 
Yours truly,
Basel
P.S. u rock

Another masterpiece
Man u never fail to amaze me  you're getting real good. Nahawand is
one nice scale, but TP is TP and saba has to be there too  Of course you enticed
me after our nice (though short) chat to grab the Oud and record (knowing it's 2:20 am here ). Hope this inspires u man, coz u "voted against it" before  Keep on the good work, and all y'all guys have to participate here too In this taksim is my first trial on the net for the "night pick" (costum made for "night owls"
) you'll need to pump up the volume coz the mic wasn't that close as I
imagined it was. first 14 secs are with the normal pick and the rest is played with the night pick. Note the success, my bro who happens to be
sleeping in the same room continued his sleep without any disturbances (hope u guys don't hear him snoring though). TP i'll make u feel
sorry u didn't give me ur mailing addy yet  Enjoy guys.
Yours truly,
Basel

Allah Allah Alllaaaaaahhh... now THAT'S saba, Basel. My saba will come soon, but let us all sit and enjoy this beautiful work that you've
done. By the way, I really like the night pick. That's pretty awesome, bud.
I encourage EVERYONE to post.

I recorded this early this morning. I'm not very good yet so don't laugh. It is in makam segah. There are some bad notes, so be warned.

Cool!
Man this is good, however I don't find this in maqam sikah, I think this is a mix between hijaz and kurd  But it's great nevertheless, I loved it. As for Sikah (huzam) here's a "short" clip I cooked
up again with the night pick, but this time I had to fix the volume of the mic to make it clearer. Enjoy guys. TP hope you're perking up your
ears for this
Yours truly,
Basel
P.S. Mike, you got a cool oud website, cool ouds, but aint got not even one taksim!! Man, consider this an invitation to descend and join us in this
thread. I promise if anyone laughs I'll rip his lungs out

Not segah? Probably not, I still have a lot of studying to do. I'll post
another taksim in a makam I am more familiar with later.
Taksim is difficult, you really have to know what you are doing. You guys (TP & Basel) make it sound so easy. Keep up the good work.

ok, here are some of mine, off the new CD...
bear in mind its hardly traditional playing, coming to the oud as i do from guitar - but ive dealt with improvisation as a major focus of mywork for
years, so there it is...
think of it as a mutant cross between Turkish and iraqi styles, with some 20th century avant agrdisms thrown in....
these are links to streaming mp3s:
oud with group ( 12 min)...oud, bass, drums, trumpet - completely free collective improv.http://www.norumba.com/LUTSHM2003acousticrough.m3u
solo oud - 6 minutes http://www.norumba.com/dancedivide.m3u
oud/flamenco guitar (excerpt) http://www.norumba.com/LastHomeexcerpt.m3u
enjoy!

ra7aal_14 (saad) sent me this taqsim and asked me to post it for him on here. I knew it would be great before I even heard it, and it turned out to be
even better than I anticipated. Great job, Saad!

Dear Emad,
I went ahead and deleted the attachment that was in your post above. Attached in this post is the COMPLETE taqsim. I too was wondering what happened
to the grand finale. I just cannot add attachments to other posts. Nice
playing again.
Take care,
Mike
