We all buy a CD that looks great, has an interesting title, then we're disappointed with the actual music when we get it home.

With bellydance or Arabic music that is appropriate to dance to, dancers usually find a band, singer, song writer, etc... that... Read More

Deciding to learn an instrument can be a daunting task, particularly if you don't have any previous musical training.

Talent can make this learning easier, but even those with no natural musical ability can get there. As I mention in my last blog, I had no real musical ability when I picked up the doumbek for the first time.... Read More
