For music readers who would like to start playing Middle Eastern music, this book contains seven easy-to-medium-level Arabic, Turkish & Armenian pieces with music, words & translations, as well as some basic Near Eastern music theory. No quarter-tones; may be played on Western or Eastern instruments. Scale and oud fingering given for each piece. List of maqams, glossary, notes on pronunciation and performance and many other features make this a very nice introduction to the music of the Near East, in a deceptively slim volume. Includes the Turkish song "Chapkin Chapkin" from the Gems of the Middle East CD series (Volume 1, Volume 2, and Volume 3).
