Michel Sajrawy: Improvisation in Maqam Rast - تقاسيم على مقام الرست
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- Maqam Rast is the basic and main Maqam in Arabic music and it contains two quarter tones. As you can hear and see, I play a standard guitar with a standard tuning, no additional frets on my fretboard, I bend the strings to get the quarter tone and correct Maqam sound and in this case, I am free to blend my Maqam with jazz lines and anything that I want. I hope you gonna enjoy my playing. Please feel free to share it on your social network.
If you are interested to learn my stile of playing I'm available for Skype lessons.

I know how this is done and I have seen some others try it before, Yet this is totally different and not experimental!! You are the first one I see who could apply maqamat and play them properly and melodically on a fretted guitar! WOW :) I'm checking all your music. keep going and greetings from Egypt.

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement :)
Do I bend the string a quarter bend if there is a quarter note(sika)?
Wow, I've been dying to do that for ages, but I couldn't, I don't presume you changed tunning ?
You are playing the Rast maqam very clear thank you very much for this great melody
perfect microtone tuning perfect timing perfect jazzy run mumtass ma shallah
Thank you my dear :)
The way playing guitar with quarter tone is that you need to bend the note before the quarter tone to get it !
Per example : Eb we need to bend the string until we get E quarter tone
prebend
Bravo , j'ai enfin trouvé la technique pour jouer du quart de ton sur ma guitare , j'ai déjà essayé ta technique et ça marche super . Merci encore mon grand .
just found this video and I am so amazed! I am a microtonalist and I have been trying to learn maqam both on a keyboard and guitar and this will help me a lot. Really thank you for uploading this. Much respect!

You are welcome
+Michel Sajrawy I have a question. Is this Maqam Rast on Do or Mi?
This is Rast in Do
+Michel Sajrawy Thanks. Maybe I'm not understanding how to play maqam but I hear A♭ which is not from Rast in Do. Such notes can be used flexibly or sort of key changing is in this playing?
I mix maqam hijaz in sol with rast in do
Vibes 🖤 great work!i really want to play those scales but i couldn't with my Ibanez!
Wait a minute, did you switch to Saba maqam at 0:53 ?
this part is prolly maqam dalanshin, a part of rast. i think he used the saba dalanshin jins here
great phrasing and great playing sir
please a guitar lesson or a tutorial
thanks for the great music

This is great man!
Thank u
Could you explain in a video how you made the guitar sounds quarter tones please!
Amazing!
Shady Ahmed thank u :)
My gosh! You mean you bend that fast and so accurately? Mind blowing. You should have a few instructional videos showing what you do.
I keep it as my little secret :-)
+Michel Sajrawy A bit selfish Master lol. Bless your hands.
To tell you the truth I pre bend before I pick :)
I tought so. Still very accurate touch with finnese. Good luck. Where can I find Writings on the wall?

This is amazing how do you do this without quarter tone frets?
Thank you for your kin comment :) I can give SKYPE lessons if you like ;)
dud wtf how please please do tutorials i'm begging you
+hamza bahloul we all beg him but he will never say his secret :D
Thank you dear, I can give SKYPE lessons if you want :)
I thought you do pitch bend with a pedal or a software as I didn't see you bending much. Please take a look at the tuning I came up with and see what you think. Does you technique work on acoustic instruments without ant electronics? Whatever it is, I hope you share it one day as it is great.
I dont use any pedal for bending, Yes sure my technique works on acoustic guitar steel strings!
I haven't seen a solid theory of harmony and polyphony in arab music. lIsten to these pieces I wrote 20 years ago www.bibotu.com/mp3/samples/CharBach.m3u
goodcyrus Listen to my album "Writings on the wall"
ممتاز عزف جد بارع . مت فضلك استاذ كيف احصل على ربع المقام من جيتار عادي . هل الأوتار مضبوطة على MI LA RE SOL SI MI
انا متمرن مبتدا اطلب المساعدة ولك جزيل الشكر استاذ .
It's still a standard tuning, I didn't change it! It's impossible for a beginner to produce these quarter tones the way I do it.. you need to be a player first, good luck to you and thank you for your appreciation :)
merci maître .
انا اقولك اخي كيف تحصل على الربع في الجيتار اذا عندك وتس راسلني عليه 0046723035355 ولايهمك لانو بدو شرح شوي يطول
اوووه ما انتبهت انك كاتب من حوالي سنتين ...اكيد عرفت كيف ..لك تحياتي
@peter nagy تكرم بس ابعتلي وتس رقمي موجود بالتعليق فوق
Hey bro could this technique be used on bass too?
It's hard to bend the bass strings!
what kind of black magic is this...I first thought you have a scalloped fretboard and bend inward ..but no just standard fretboard..hmmm
Ton 1/4 no
What is your tuning?
Standard guitar tuning: E B G D A E
