Hi,

very nice playing. but take it step by step. slow down little bit and play with clear solid tones.

Normally, when i learn new music piece, i play it in very slow motion and i try clear the tones as much as possible. then i gradually try increase the speed, till i reach the optimum speed.

You have great ability to learn very fast and reach a very good level, keep practicing the same piece 100s times if you can at slower rate and you will see the difference.

Thanks

Thanks Dubai244,
I'll try your method.

mrkmni - 5-3-2010 at 03:06 PM

it is the youtube page or you were playing fast? if it is the last case: listen to the original one many times then try to adjust your rythm.

Hi mrkmni!

I have no idea how long you have been playing the oud. So I am not going to comment on your playing :)

But I want to say that you ought to consider playing to metromone.
It is important that you keep the same tempo all the way. Regardless of how fast or slow want to play at.

Viva la oud-musica

your foot can play the role of metronom..
The minimum when you play something known (like bint el chalabiya) is to listen to the original and try to follow the same rythm, it will be more pleasant to listen to.

Thanks guys,
It is another version of playing the piece...
I deliberately accelerate the finish...
Look at my other files when I play with rythms..

i listened to some of your sound clip, try to slow down in your rythms.
Music on Oud is so exciting sometimes we go fast because we are hungry to listen to the rest :)

Hi Alloushé,
so theres is no fast rythm?

alloushé - 5-9-2010 at 09:46 AM

Hi MrKmni
