MY NEW GREAT TEACHER MR. WAEL KAKISH(PLEASE READ)THANK YOU
Well I have switched teachers ,since John was a very long drive ,It took me betwwen and hour and a half to two hours to get there,So I got a Forty
minutes drive to the City of Pasadena , where I was refered by Mr. Mike Malek to Wael. I had my first lesson yesterday and it was great , Wael is a
very kind ,Calm person ,who sits talk to you and teaches you the easy way , Where for biginners it sounds wowwwww what the hek he is talking about ,
But Wael told me not to worry that is the bigining ,It will ease and I am willing and wanting to learn the Oud so bad....
Well thank you Mike, and many thanks to a great person like Wael , who contrebutes his life to Music and specialy Arabic Music. May God Bless you all.
My Best Regards , Samir , California

Wael's not just a great teacher, he's also filled to the brim with information about classical Egyptian, Syrian, and Jordanian music (and he's a super
nice guy!). If you want to find where or when a song comes from, or what different versions of that song are known, he's the man... his Kan Zaman
ensemble is also very much worth checking out for those in the LA area.

I just had a lesson today ,and it is my second lesson.He is one of the few great people that I met in this Planet. He is a human bieng who sucrefies
all his time for his music.very talented person ,Wish he was in an Arab country where people would apriciate his work .Pitty that we are a very small
comunity here in the USA and this country is too big and I wish that the few of us can contribute and donate money to our Music and cultcher .If
everyone can donate a bit to the KAN ZAMAN they will be able to oporate without feeling that they are strugeling .Wish people help . If you like you
may contact Wael and donate.....I will donate every time they have an event . ,I love that our culture will stay forever .Like all other s that have
the right to servive and we Arabs and no matter what even Jews ,Americans ,Armenians ETC ...We all brothers we all have one GOD.....Please check the
Kan Zaman sceduale and try to atend ,They are having an event in Pasadena on October 1st....Please show up and show Wael apriciations for his hard
work....This guy is unbeleavably .He has a lots on knowledge not only in Music but he is very well educated and he reads a lots of books about
everything ,If you see his library you will be amaized. Wael My friend we all wish you the very best .God Bless...Samir,Califonia
PS. I like to add one thing to make it easy for donations,When you go to a concert of Wael instead of the $15 or $20 ticket at that time what i think
I wil do i will pay as a donation $100.00 a ticket where that supports them a lot ,keep there spitit up and there work going.Thank you and I hope to
get feed back in here from all of you Great friends and members .Wael doesnt know anything about that that is on my own ,Where I like to go once a
month at least and watch an Arabic concert and feel at home sourounded by all our brothers Arabd and No matter what ....I left Lebanon at thye age of
Tree and a half Months and have no Idea what it feels like living between Arabs in an Arab country......Thanks again and hope to get a positive
feedback.With good spitis...May the Lord Bless you all.Samir,Californai
