How it works

Structured, one-to-one tuition.

Taqasim Music School provides online lessons by video. Students need their own oud and a steady internet connection. Each lesson lasts approximately one hour and a half.

The fee is £40 per lesson; the preferred method of payment is PayPal or bank transfer. Lessons take place on a weekly basis.

If you are interested, send an email to school@taqasim.net. One of our teachers will be in touch to agree on a day and time that suits you.

Who it's for

Any level, any location.

Complete beginners through advanced players from across the world study on video. Below is how we adapt to each type of student.

Adult learners worldwide. Whether you are a complete beginner curious about the maqam system, or an intermediate player seeking precision in your phrasing, the one-to-one path adapts to you.

Working musicians use it to deepen their relationship with the instrument outside their main practice. Students who cannot reach our London studio rely on it as their main route.
