Haftad-o Do Mashq-e Tanbur (Seventy-Two Tanbur Exercises)

According to Ramtin Kakavandi, Book 1 covers as much music theory as a beginner needs, the right principles of articulation, and études that carry the feeling of maqam music without confronting the beginner at once with the difficult intervals, cycles and rhythms of the maqams. Book 2 introduces the dastans (fret positions), intervals and free-rhythm (ad libitum) playing and leads gradually to maqam playing. The two books are the first part of his series Haftad-o Do Mashq, Haftad-o Do Maqam and Haftad-o Do Mabna-ye Tanbur.
