Abstract

Objectives: The study aimed to propose a standardized method for musical notation of Arabic percussion instruments, following the model of other musical instruments, as well as to provide examples of the method for notation of Arabic percussion instruments.

Methods: This study follows the developmental approach, which involves studying a specific phenomenon and searching for solutions in order to develop effective outcomes for teaching. A musical notation was developed for the basic Arab percussion instruments used in modern Arab music ensembles, including the dhol, katem, riq, and tabla. Proposed models were developed in four lines, and each instrument was used in a way that corresponded to the selected rhythm, using a musical staff consisting of five lines and four spaces. Abbreviations and symbols were also developed to facilitate reading of the fast-paced shapes.

Results: The results showed that a special rhythmic notation line can be assigned to each of the basic Arabic percussion instruments in modern Arab music bands. The rhythmic notation of the group of Arabic percussion instruments is represented in four lines. To ensure clarity and purity of rhythm, the instruments (dahola and katam) can be used to perform basic stress positions, while the instruments (riq and tabla) can be used to play percussive ornaments in addition to the basic rhythmic stresses.

Conclusions: The study emphasizes the important role of Arabic rhythms, and the importance of educating musicians playing them, and not leaving them to improvise without specific musical notation, similar to other musical instruments, in order to control the performance.
