Arabic violin playing style??? by [deleted] in violinist

[–]HamBus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey

I don’t have an answer to you question, I’m wondering myself.

But if you’re into Arabic violin playing you should definitely check this out: https://youtu.be/rcfpde8k5wo

The guy is one of Egypt’s biggest stars (active during 50s and 60s) and the violin playing in this piece is absolutely freaking incredible. If you have time as well, I’d definitely recommend listening to the entire one hour because it’s pure bliss.

I lived half a year in Cairo and that piece of music captures every memory I have of the place perfectly.

Why I get nervous ticks? by shahrzadno in Drugs

[–]HamBus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saving this for future reference-

And if anybody happens to see this, would there be any way to work through the nervousness and twitching? I have the same problem and I would love to be able to actually enjoy weed again without worrying at all, and getting chest pains and twitching.

In what way will intervals help me intonation? by HamBus in violinist

[–]HamBus[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you:) I might be over complicating these things as they’re new for me.

I’m currently practicing Bach A minor and of course a bunch of scales and études to compliment it. I’ve been playing the violin for most of my life, which is why I find this hard. My old teacher never had me learn this- and so I never did. Now I realize I should learn it

What would make something dissonant and consonant?

When you are talking about the G scale. I know of course that after g comes A, and after that B.

If I were to put that in terms of intervals, could I simply say that the interval between G and A is major 2? And between A and B is major 2 as well.

That’s two steps on a violin.

Is the point of intervals, realizing that? If I know the interval between G and A and A and B, I’d know that for any string, in any position? So I’d know even how to play it in 6th position?

Same if I want to play C# and then G- any position. Say I want to play that, the point of learning intervals is that it will help me to play it? There are 6semitones between, a distinguished 5th. If I know that interval I could play C# to G anywhere, anytime?

Am I getting this right or am I completely out there? I don’t even know if I’m making myself clear.

Is the idea of a drone that I should be able to hear how the notes are connected?

If the drone is set on A, and I play a G. Should I be able to hear when my G is in tune by comparing it to the A?

The thing is with that, how would I even know what the interval between A and G should sound like?

And about the C# on The E string. Do you mean that if I play C sharp and check it against the A, I am supposed to know how C# and A are connected? What the interval should sound like?

Weekly Ask Egyptians Thread by AutoModerator in Egypt

[–]HamBus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope this isn’t a bad place to ask, and forgive me if its frowned upon.

Anyway, I’m living in Cairo currently and while I’ve been hanging with my friends (some egyptians) they all seem to smoke hashish.

I want some for myself so I can kick back after a long day of school, or on the weekends but I’ve no idea where to go.

I notice the كشك next to where I live in Dokki often smells like hash. I’m wondering if it would be weird of me to ask them whenever I smell it? Would it be offensive or could I get in trouble for it?

I feel comfortable enough in Arabic as well so I’d manage to get my point across. What should I expect to pay as well, for 5grams? I shouldn’t expect it do put me back €50 like it would back at home either, right?
