yep. The ornamentation are Turkish trade mark:) but nice. My Arabic ear is not used to excess ornamentation so I like yours since they are not over as Turkish players usually do.
Yes... the Turks can go nuts with left hand ornaments, as the Arab right hand tremolo can get really crazy - - - my aim is to find a balance btw the two, and to bring in more of the Arab right hand tremolo without overdoing that. . . . also to find a balance between doing something recognisably traditional WITHOUT sounding cliche!
thanks :-) ...does it sound Turkish? I guess that's my default now. I was doing my best to try to get at least a little Arabic flavour - but anyway, Mohammed told me he wanted Turkish style, because it is unusual in Egypt (especially played by a Canadian!).
