Thank you! Lee, do you know anything about JT's biography, how he got into playing the oud, and who his teachers were?

This is a great idea thanks Lee providing these videos :applause:!
(of course it does not replace live lessons with Joe :) which I warmly recommend to anyone)

This is a great video on a subject for which it's hard to find guidance. JT the pedagogue strikes again! It should probably be a permanent resource on the site. How about a whole documentary?

thanks a lot! :applause:
it's almost a whole lesson - this is definitely worth 100.000 !!

Thanks Lee. great resource and inspirational/motivating.I like his way of putting ideas/concepts across in a very accessible way. epecially useful is his idea of phrasing/meter. Lets hope he can make it to UK this year.

I have a bunch of material from Joe's stay that I haven't had time to go through yet. Probably won't get to it until sometime in May but I'll post things as soon as I can!:airguitar:
