How to write Middle Eastern music involves using Eastern modes, Middle East instruments, and genuine Arabic music scales. If you are in love with a Middle Eastern sounding music scale and want to learn Arabic music and related Indian music scales, you need genuine Middle Eastern music theory which is Arabic music theory. Ancient Musical Masters Knew The Secrets of Musical Ecstasy and Healing! For Music to Create Itâ€™s Deepest Magic, Perfect Harmony is Needed! Most People Do Not Realize That Modern Musical Scales Are Not In Tune... Much of the Magic Has Been Lost! This Book Presents The Musical Magic of the Indigenous Middle East, Andalusian Spain and tastes of traditions from India and Asia. For the last hundred years European and American musicians have used the equally-tempered pitches of the modern piano keyboard. Ancient modal musical systems have been forgotten. They didnâ€™t fit into this system and many kinds of mathematically perfect harmonies have nearly vanished from conscious music traditions in the West! Perfect Harmony Makes People Feel Really Good! It really is a kind of magic! This book offers what every musician really needs to know: ultimate tools for performance and composition! â€œI donâ€™t know the song you just played but it feels like itâ€™s in my DNA!â€ --Typical Audience Response. Now in the twenty-first century we have an increasingly flexible music technology: all the instruments with microtonal musical capabilities such as violins, cellos, ouds, guitars with note-bending-blues-traditions and many wind instruments are in the band or orchestra while new electronic technologies are making keyboards and even smart-phone applications highly tunable and easy to play. By combining details of ancient Middle Eastern Musical â€œMaqamâ€ teachings and the physics of Just Intonation, which describe perfect harmony, Cameron Powers is able to present a simple solution to these musical mysteries. Musicians can now explore the vast collections of ancient musical modes. Great players and singers unconsciously move into these modes. Thatâ€™s what makes them great! Why not make this technique conscious? These modes are known as Paga in India, Gaganu in Japan, Maqam by Arabs, Makam by Turks, Magam by Azerbaijanis, Makom or Shashmaqom in Uzbekistan, Tadjikstan, Turkmenistan and the Sinkiang province of China, Dastgah in Persia, Kayyal in Pakistan and Patet in Indonesia. If there is such a thing as â€œWorld Music,â€ this is it! Eighteen of the more than eighty traditional Maqams, or ancient modes, described in this book are the most essential for basic Middle Eastern musical knowledge. These Eighteen scales are described with detailed reference to the physically-perfect harmonies of Just Intonation and are demonstrated on the accompanying CDs, giving the student a solid technique for learning to hear and to perform in any music tradition!
