Twais Quartet & Moslem Rahal

I am really interested in these musicians.
The album Insan is an excellent album that features new compositions such as the Samai Bayati by Hassan Skaf.
Does anyone have any music charts for these pieces?
I will likely transcribe some.
Any information about this group will be welcome.
It occurred to me that a book of recent compositions for Arabic maqam, like those here and others by Ahmed Mukhtar etc., would make a good anthology.
Moslem Rahal is an incredible nay player, one of the best of Arabic style nay today.
He has worked recently with Jordi Savall on 'Orient Occident II - Hommage à la Syrie (Tribute to Syria).
The other musicians are all amazing.

Hello Jono,
Still no news of music sheet for the Samai Bayati ?
Maybe you did transcribe it ? 
If yes, could you please share it ?
By the way I have found another rendition of this samai on the CD "Pellegrino : Il Viaggio di Pietro della Valle" a collaboration of Twais quartet -
Jean-Christophe Frisch & XVIII-21 Musique des Lumières.
