#9 Jabakji score & mp3: 3 Mowashahat (andalusian)
3 classical old Mouwash (plural: Mouwashahat)
1- Bellazi askara - Bayat
2- ya Shadi Al Alhan - Sazkar (rast family)
3- Ahwa Kamaran - Saba
The sheets for the 3 is in 1 pdf and a separate mp3 file as played by Jabakji for each, I included also two tracks of Masmoudi and sama'i thakil
rhythm files to practice with (inside the zip files) , mouwashah is a rhytmic song associated with Andalusian arab music, but many composers wrote
songs in this format,
1 & 3 are old and the composer is unknown
2 was composed in the early 20th century by the great Sayed Darwish

This is interesting. The transcription of Ya Shadi al Alhan doesn't match the way I've always heard it sung. Though the instructor in the audio clip
plays it as written, the vocal version following sings it as I'm used to it:
Ab in the third line fist measure, Ab and B (hijaz) in the third line 2nd measure. 3rd beat from the end of the 4th line is E1/2b. Also, they don't
seem to be singing those D#'s. Anyone know of a vocal version that matches the transcription? Maybe there are variations in different countries?

Wasnt Jabakji Syrian? both Mohamed Kheyri and Sabah Fakhri (Syrians) sing it as Brian describes.
Anybody also feel his E half flats are played too sharp?

In fact Jabakji is commenting on this matter before playing Ya Shadi Al Alhan (I've cut this part to reduce the file size), the comments are
attached.
He says that maqam Sazkar is the same as Rast except that the D is sometimes played D#, he says also that most people play this Mouwashah as a
straight Rast without the D# but it is more accurate to play it as transcribed with D#.
Jabakji was from Aleppo but Ya Shadi was composed in Egypt and I don't know if the D# is an "Aleppian" way of playing it or if it was this way in the
original Sayed Darwish version.
On another piece (Longa Shahnaz), Jabakji is pointing out that it is played differently in Aleppo and he included both an egyptian and a syrian
recording.

Hi there,
Here is another Ya Shadi Al Han, played by Dahan Center Oriental Orchestra for Israel. I recorded it with my mp3 at Syrian Jews Congres an Bar Ilans
University.

Hi Marina,
You probably picked the wrong file, it is another (beautiful) mouwashah called "Ya Ghosnan Naqa"
