hi sammy,
i cant really tell you an exact way of playing a taqsim, but the way i play it(example bayati), i start on d and play around with the notes(no real
order but what ever sounds nice). try playing around with the d, e half-flat,f, and g.when u find something that sounds nice, practice that. then u
can move to the g note and play around with the next 4 notes starting with the g. try different rythyms and switching to different notes. doesn't have
to be in order( i dont think).then when u've done that u can go back to the d and play saba cos that always sounds nice with bayati.
hope that helps man.

hi
i've been listening to many taqsims from the pros. if you listen carefully they hardly play the notes in order. but then again try out diff styles
till u find yours.

ahlan sammy
you can try looking at a maqam as two tetracords, as the first step meaning: bayat- bayat on d nahawand on g
then you have two more, ajam tricord on F and ajam an Bb.
try disassembeling the maqam, and then playing around each of the tri/tetracords
for modulation you can use the calssic modulations for start:
saba,ajam,yekah, shuri. this are the basic modulations from bayat .
its very usufull to listen to classic taqasim and to find out how the player developes the maqam, and especialy what mood or feeling you have on every
maqam .
i would recommend to listen especialy to riad al sunbati wich i think plays amazing taqasim in the classic fashion
