This workshop is intended to introduce participants to the rich and diverse musical traditions of Palestine and the Middle East. Teacher Ahmed Hawwash will introduce participants to the different musical styles, instruments and techniques used in the Palestinian, Arabic and Turkish music.
We will also be introduced to quarter tones and the different ways they are used in various musical cultures. In addition, we will delve into music theory, with specific attention to Arabic taksim and makam, focusing on the 8 very well-known makams (according to some sources there are more than 400 makams).
