I'm going to be attending college in Washington Heights in about two weeks and was wondering if there are any oud teachers in the area or neighboring areas. Thanks!!!

Nice to meet you Emmanuel,

I'm very impressed by your music, and skill set that I read about on your website. I'm looking for a teacher who can meet twice a week and also, who is not terribly pricey... If you could email me more information and details about when you're available, the cost etc. that would be appreciated! My email is Hemmat1000@hotmail.com. Thanks!
