Abdallah Guinia — msawi
Maâlem Abdallah Guinia's tuning-formula opening — Sum 2012, Figure 4.6(a). Two systems: an opening sweep through the gamut, then a closing line that reasserts pitches 1, 4, 8 (the open strings) as the points of reference. Audio 4.1 in the dissertation is the ground truth for Abdallah's actual phrasing; the step durations here are stand-ins so you can follow the pitch sequence.
