Makam are modes found in Arabic, Greek, Turkish, Armenian,
in the Balkans and beyond.
There are many regional and historical variations but also a broad common heritage.
We will study the basics of the makam modal system,
how to improvise (taksim) and modulate from one makam to another.
Untempered instruments are more suited to practicing specific makam intervals:
voice, violin, clarinet, ..
Reading the music theory is optional,
These musical traditions were transmitted orally but there are also scores that I will teach you to decode.
