George Nabil
About
Hello,
My name is George Nabil, a professional Oud player, educator with 10 years experience. I graduated at Arab Oud House under the supervision of the renowned Oud Player Naseer Shamma.
I have been teaching private lessons since I started studying in Arab Oud House since 2017. I combine authentic classical foundations with a modern pedagogical approach, helping students understand not only how to play the Oud, but how to truly feel and express its musical language. I shared in concerts in Egypt at Arab Oud House and at the Cairo Opera House as an Oud Solist
I released my fist Album at the end of 2024
Teaching Style
My approach is a student-centered, but in general:
- Focus step by step to build strong foundation in Arabic Maqam.
- Focus on how to improve ears training especially in Arabic Maqam.
- Creating a strong atmosphere of encouragement and fun during lessons.
- Focus in Classical Arab compositions
Whether you have just started your journey OR you have an experience, I will help you to move forward for the next step.
Curriculum
- I start by focusing first of improving each hand by simple exercises and etudes, step by step.
- Then I start to teach every Maqam with etudes and classical melodies.
- And at the advanced level, I start to teach improvisation (Taqsim) and teach the spirit of every Maqam based on advanced classical repertoire.
- My Curriculum is combining my personal experiences, classical melodies and modern techniques which I have learned at Arabic Oud House.
