I can't find anything about this great piece, of course not knowing Arabic doesn't help. Is it a folk tune (from where), is it widely known, is it
Shamma's own composition (as the thickness of the chords suggests), or what? Thanks!
I think Shamma looks so much better and 10 years younger without his beard!
BTW, I found a Malagnuena that is INCREDIBLE, it's Adabi AL Johar's and this cat can play the oud, just a little bit ... my Gawd!

Nassir wrote this piece after he saw a beautiful Arabic horse in Amman 1988
(Ref. http://www.aljazeera.net/News/archive/archive?ArchiveId=59319 )

I didn't write anything
It's just part of the collection I made over the years.. collected from several forums and sources and friends.. but not Issa Boulos' archive (http://www.issaboulos.com/archive) which he made himself, and is a much better source of music sheets.
There's a new wave of music sheets coming soon to my collection as well..
