Thanks for sharing [[:File:A stroll through some retuned maqams.mp3|''A stroll through some retuned maqams'']]. Listening to it was an interesting short trip. I really liked the part from 00:46 to 01:02 (''Maqam Saba''?). Well, I have to admit that the contrapuntal elaborations at the beginning and end did not convince my heavily Baroque-biased ears, but maybe I just misinterpret the melodic lines. If it isn't to much work, would it be possible to add a more detailed timing info to the description? --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 09:12, 11 December 2020 (UTC)

:Hi Xenwolf. I added a bunch more detail into the description. Thanks for the comments. My favorite bit is also 0:46 to 1:02. I'd be interested in knowing which parts of the beginning and end didn't seem so effective. In my defense, I don't think I was really trying to sound Baroque at any point in this song. Despite my protestations to the contrary, I was, in fact, going for a somewhat Middle Eastern vibe, albeit adapting techniques I use when I'm trying to sound Baroque. --[[User:Rperlner|Rperlner]] ([[User talk:Rperlner|talk]]) 03:47, 12 December 2020 (UTC)
