Modulation Series - Maqam Bayati to Maqam Iraq

[@AbuMahdi-Maqamat]

Iraq also has the switching of the upper B half-flat to B flat while descending to emphasize the Bayati before the melodic cadence.

Where are you based in Japan?

Thanks for the video. I do wonder one thing in regards to Bayati. Lets say you play Bayati in D and than Kurd in D. What would actually be the difference? Aren't they based on the same notes?

[@OudforGuitarists]

Bayati uses D E1/2b F G A Bb C D, and sometimes B1/2b Kurd uses D Eb F G A Bb C D So the 2nd degree E note is different. There can be a lot of overlap in melodies between these two maqams, especially the upper part around the g note.

My dear teacher, I am an amateur musician. My three fingers are wrapped around a plectrum and touch the strings with a light touch. Is this normal? If not, what are its negatives? Thank you.

[@OudforGuitarists]

Your fingers touch the strings as you strike the strings? It would be best to hold your hand in such a way that your fingers avoid the strings. Maybe the angle of your wrist is not sharp enough. Try to hold your wrist at a 90 degree angle at your wrist. It's difficult to know the issue unless I see it.

@@OudforGuitarists Thank you for the advice, but I do not see any difference when my fingers touch the strings or not.. What are the negatives if my fingers touch the strings.. For example, I strike the R string, but my fingers touch the Saul and Do strings.
