Taqsim Nahawand

Hi folks

I have just recorded my first humble offering for the site. It's a little taqsim on Nahawand with a bit of a modulation to Nawa Athar and Hijaz on G.

I am playing this on my Dimitris Rapakousios 7 course Bashir style oud (my baby :D).

Many thanks to Mike for compressing the file for me :)

Hope you like it! Thanks in advance for listening!

Hi CQ,

this is very nice :D, it has a very good feeling and your richa is smooth...

I feel however that the sound is always a little 'thin'... but maybe this is an effect of recording? Also some notes are slightly out of tune.

Keep playing, I'm waiting for your next recordings :)

Hi Dan

Thanks for your comments. Yes it could be the way I recorded the piece (straight into a stereo mike). Hmmmn, I'll see what I can do about the thinness of the sound. Argh! tuning! Yes, I'll watch that.

Ta!
