Experimenting with rhythm, Arabic style

  • I play an old-time tune on top of an Arabic pattern to show one way to change your habitual approach to a tune. I recorded the rhythmic pattern on a Gold Tone cello banjo and play a version of "Lonesome John" on a vintage Stewart with Nylgut strings, an Elite amber head, and a minstrel style bridge by Bill Morris.

    I came here via your "I've just got a cello banjo" video, and was completely blown away. It's so incredibly fresh, innovative, and interesting.
    That said, I must stop gibbering and pick up my banjo. Thank you.

    Very nice playing! Thanks for sharing!
    I have a question, where can I get more information on how to play with an Arabic rhythm? I can identify the Arabic music when I listen to it, but I'm having some trouble getting the concrete things that make it sound that way. Any ideas or links to relevant info?
    Thank you!

    Pretty cool. I like to fool around in different modes like Phrygian Dominant and Ukrainian Dorian. Have you seen David Lindley's rendition of Johnson Boys where he plays a taksim at the beginning on an Irish bouzouki with extra frets?

    wish you had added the "drum" beat. Sounds really nice but bump diddy ain't just bump diddy you can and should add much in between each of those bump ditty notes. I am not familiar with music terms so I'll not try to describe what I know of music. Mid-Eastern string band (well what else are they?) music is very compelling. When I was quite young I spent some time in Libya and Turkey and it was that time that introduced me to an instrument I grew to love. Al Oud. There are quite a few very accomplished Oud players on UA-cam. And give a listen to what Aboubakar Siddikh posted. It is a Columbia LP called Cairo, The Music of Modern Egypt released in 1956 a year before I came to Libya and one of the most influential LPs in my banjo life (along with Hobart Smith)
