Oud lessons in United States

I could not believe how good I found myself feeling during this lesson! As someone who's studied a lot of yoga and various breathing techniques, I found it super-refreshing to have similar exercises presented to me but for a totally different purpose and without the dogma. I am referring to the most wonderful breathing exercises Elias taught me and led me through today. I found my head cleared in a most unexpected way! It was great. The explanations he offered of various anatomical structures were very interesting and useful. He not only explained them with words but showed me physically with his hands what he meant. It's probably about the most anatomy I've ever learned! So much went on in this lesson, it's pretty amazing! We then went on to various vocal techniques he both explained and demonstrated before I got to try them, too. My head feels so clear and fresh from this lesson, I want to say it's almost like I'm flying .... Oh, I should also say: This is not my first singing teacher! I've had singing teachers from all over and I really, really like and appreciate Elias' approach! I think he does things the way he should be done! I felt emotionally comfortable. It's a basic many teachers miss! Not Elias, though! He got everything right! I feel great and ready for my next lesson! Yay! :-D

Great music and Oud teacher. Very patient, attentive and constantly follows up on progress. I am doing remote Oud session from Brooklyn and learned so much in only few sessions. He has a real passion for music and education. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to learn music and the instruments Faddoul plays. I'm very thankful for all his shared knowledge, talent and experience.

Karam is a great teacher, he can accomodate all kinds of levels, is knowledge and open to questions on different parts of the language. He has also been flexible and helpful in booking lessons.
