He tells us about his artistic beginning when he got interested in poetry and artists how he learned of them. He also speaks about the<em><strong>&nbsp;Mizm\u0101r<\/strong><\/em>, his favourite and describes its beauty and harmony with all types of traditional music in the Euphrates region.<\/h6>\n<p>The usually standing player holds the body of the&nbsp;<strong><em>mizm<\/em><em>\u0101<\/em><em>r<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;with both hands so that the reed is entirely inserted into the mouth cavity and the lips press against the top of the pirouette. The thumb and first three fingers of one hand operate the thumbhole and the top three finger holes; the four fingers of the other hand are used to cover the bottom four finger holes, leaving the thumb to help support the instrument. With all finger holes covered, this&nbsp;<strong><em>mizm\u0101r<\/em>&nbsp;<\/strong>produces approximately a G4 (it has a range of about two octaves). The&nbsp;<em>mizm<\/em><em>\u0101<\/em><em>r<\/em>&nbsp;is a melodic instrument, its player rendering existing tunes or improvisations set in melodic modes called&nbsp;<em>maqamat<\/em>&nbsp;(sing.,&nbsp;<em>maqam<\/em>) in the Arabic tradition. The scales of&nbsp;<em>maqamat<\/em>&nbsp;utilize intervals not found in the Western equal-temperament system. An extremely strong airstream is required to make the reed speak, which contributes to the robust sound and high dynamic level of the instrument. The cyclic breathing technique can be applied by players when rendering particularly long phrases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ali Sanad<\/strong>&nbsp;loves the traditional music and he performed at the cultural centre in&nbsp;<strong>Raqqa<\/strong>&nbsp;and the Radio and Television Department on the Euphrates River where he could play&nbsp;<em><strong>Mowlaya<\/strong><\/em>&nbsp;with dabkeh dance which made him famous.<\/p>\n<p>He speaks about his participation in the Syrian series which were filmed in Raqqa city, and he expresses his gratitude for this interesting experience.<\/p>\n<p>The last years were not easy to live, according to Ali Al Bakkar, where he was sick so he couldn&#8217;t play in Mizmar, also because the country suffered some difficult times. Nevertheless, he had the determination to stay in his home and encouraged people around him to stay for love and peace.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div
