I am known as the world’s top mentor for
Qanunists of all levels who want to learn qanun with an effective system, master maqam & perform taqasim.
If you are looking to start going deeper into qanun maqam and taqsim I can help you get to the next level without boring music theory and the good news is that you don’t need any prior music knowledge.
The dire lack of step by step systems in Arabic music is the reason why I created proven frameworks so you can access and experience Qanun and Arabic music in any way you want.
I don’t do this often, so If you stumbled upon this page, it's your lucky day as I have this amazing intensive coming up.
What's included in your ticket:
- Access to the Qanun Kickstarter Bundle course.
- Access to the Maqam Building Block System course
- Home-cooked Syrian lunch each day
-
Your access to the top qanun event in the world.
Only £1500 or 3 payments of £550
Why Listen To Me?
I am a Syrian classically trained musician. (and yes I studied and grew up there). After playing qanun professionally for 30 years, I taught in universities in Oman and the UK and I have helped 100s of students from all over the world learn qanun maqam and taqasim from scratch
As a composer and a professional performer, I have been dubbed by the BBC as 'Queen of The Qanun'. I performed all over the world, won prestigious awards and my work has been featured at Classic FM, Financial Times..etc which helped me reach 1000s of qanun and maqam students all over the world.
