Aman molli: Practice of east Mediterranean Music

Short url: 

https://squ.at/r/al9u

This is a weekly open practice session of east Mediterranean music, in which we play genres such as rebetiko and Greek/Balkan/Turkish/Middle Eastern folk music. Together we explore the melodic pathways, rhythms (e.g. 9/8, 7/8. 5/4) and harmonies of, as well as connections between these musical traditions. We gather to have fun playing music together, to share musical knowledge and experience, and improve our skills on our instruments. We welcome interested newcomers to join in, regardless of musical experience, and using any kind of instrument (strings, percussion, wind, voice). We have to be mindful of the neighbours and predominantly play acoustically, or in case of electric instruments, at very low volume.

Bring your instruments and your best mood!
