About Iraqi Maqam

Al-maqam al-'Iraqi المقام العراقي

The maqam al-'iraqi is considered the most noble and perfect form of the maqam. As the name implies, it is native to Iraq with roots dating back to the Abbasid era and earlier; its current form has been known for about 400 years in Baghdad, Mosul and Kirkuk. The maqam al-'iraqi has been passed on orally through the Iraqi masters of the maqam, who cultivate the form especially in Baghdad.

The maqam is traditionally performed by a vocalist (qari') and three instrumentalists playing santur (hammered dulcimer), jawza (spike fiddle) and tablah or dumbuk (goblet drum). Sometimes a fourth instrument, a riqq or daf zinjari (tambourine) also joins in. Chalghi al-Baghdadi is the name of this ensemble. al-maqam al-'iraqi is the name of the musical genre. (Touma 1996)
