The 8 Maqamat of Quran & Athan | EPIC Masjid | Shaykh Ibrahim Bakeer

The Art of Quran Recitation (Maqamat) - Imam Ibrahim Bakeer & Nouman Ali Khan

(Maqamat) – Imam Ibrahim Bakeer

Maqam árabe ( árabe : مقام , romanizado : maqām , literalmente "rango"; pl. مقامات maqāmāt ) es el sistema de modos melódicos utilizados en la música árabe tradicional , que es principalmente melódica . La palabra maqam en árabe significa lugar, ubicación o posición. El maqam árabe es un tipo de melodía . Es "una técnica de improvisación " que define los tonos , los patrones y el desarrollo de una pieza musical y es "exclusivo de la música artística árabe". Hay 72 filas de tonos heptatónicos o escalas de maqamat. Estos se construyen a partir de segundos mayores , neutrales y menores . Cada maqam está construido sobre una escala y lleva una tradición que define sus frases habituales, notas importantes , desarrollo melódico y modulación . Tanto las composiciones como las improvisaciones en la música árabe tradicional se basan en el sistema maqam . Maqamat se puede realizar con voz omúsica instrumental , y no incluyen un componente rítmico . Un factor esencial en la interpretación es que cada maqam describe el "factor tonal-espacial" o conjunto de notas musicales y las relaciones entre ellas, incluidos los patrones tradicionales y el desarrollo de la melodía , mientras que el "componente rítmico-temporal" está "sujeto a un proceso no definido". organización". Un maqam no tiene un "esquema de compases establecido que se repita regularmente ni una métrica invariable. A veces, cierto ritmo identifica el estilo de un intérprete, pero esto depende de su técnica de interpretación y nunca es característico del maqam como tal. ." Lo compositivo o más bien precomposicionalEl aspecto del maqam es la organización tonal-espacial, incluyendo el número de niveles de tono, y el aspecto de improvisación es la construcción del esquema rítmico-temporal. La designación maqam apareció por primera vez en los tratados escritos en el siglo XIV por al-Sheikh al-Safadi y Abdulqadir al-Maraghi , y desde entonces se ha utilizado como término técnico en la música árabe. El maqam es una estructura modal que caracteriza el arte de la música de los países del norte de África , el Cercano Oriente y Asia Central . Tres culturas musicales principales pertenecen a la familia modal maqam: árabe, persa y turca. Las notas de un maqam no están afinadas con el mismo temperamento , lo que significa que las relaciones de frecuencia de los tonos sucesivos no son necesariamente idénticas. Un maqam también determina otras cosas, como la tónica (nota inicial), la nota final y la nota dominante . También determina qué notas deben enfatizarse y cuáles no. Los maqams árabes se basan en una escala musical de 7 notas que se repite en la octava . Algunos maqams tienen 2 o más escalas alternativas (por ejemplo, Rast, Nahawand e Hijaz). Las escalas maqam en la música árabe tradicional son microtonales , no se basan en un sistema de afinación musical de temperamento igual de doce tonos , como es el caso de la música occidental moderna . La mayoría de las escalas maqam incluyen una quinta perfecta o una cuarta perfecta (o ambas), y todas las octavas son perfectas. Las notas restantes en un maqam, la escala puede o no aterrizar exactamente en semitonos . Por esta razón , las escalas de maqam se enseñan principalmente de forma oral y escuchando extensamente el repertorio de música árabe tradicional. Dado que los intervalos microtonales no son prácticos para anotar con precisión, se adoptó un sistema de notación musical simplificado en la música árabe a principios del siglo XX. Comenzando con una escala cromática , la escala árabe se divide en 24 cuartos de tono iguales , donde un cuarto de tono equivale a medio semitono en una escala de temperamento igual de 12 tonos . En este sistema de notación, todas las notas en una escala maqam se redondean al cuarto de tono más cercano. ¡Que lo disfrutes! ✅ Si desean sumarse a IVOOX solo tienen que suscribirse o darle el botón del corazoncito ❤️ y comentar : https://www.ivoox.com/podcast-meditaaccion_sq_f1707851_1.html ✅ Si nos sigues en SPOTIFY ó Apple Podcast, ahora nos puedes ayudar a calificar con 5 estrellas ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

We talk about a few new books — ones that provide a welcome escape, and ones that seem particularly daunting — and about how hard it is to write, read, think and imagine the future right now.   Show Notes: Noor Naga's novel-in-verse Washes, Prays was published this spring. You can read more about it on Mada Masr and ArabLit. Aziz Binebine's Tazmamart, Cellule 10 recently appeared in English as Tazmamart, translated by Lulu Norman. His brother Mahi Binebine's The King's Fool is forthcoming in Ben Faccini's translation in August. Impostures is al-Hariri's classic Maqamat, many-Englished by Michael Cooperson and available now. Mazen Kerbaj's coronavirus diaries are online at kerbajdiaries.com. Alessandro Manzoni's I Promessi Sposi is a classic of Italian literature and recounts a 17th century plague in Milan.  There has also been a fair amount of quarantine writing, such as the NYRB's Pandemic Journal. The Point is publishing a series of articles on what we watch and read during quarantine.  Repression in Egypt continues even with covid-19. Alaa Abdel-Fattah went on a month-long hunger strike, Mada Masr editor Lina Attallah was detained and released on bail, and the latest to be targeted were a couple young (and apolitical) TikTok stars.  New Arabic Translation Challenges are published each Tuesday with roundups on Saturday.
