Fantastic! - I was so happy that I found this opportunity to be introduced to music in Morocco. Najib went above and beyond to accommodate my changes in schedule. When I finally had to make a change to a date that he was not available, he was thoughtful enough to make an arrangement for a colleague to teach. This took place in a lively cafe in Chefchouan. A member of the staff who also plays oud participated so I was even more fortunate to have two teachers. Honestly I would have booked many lessons with this program if the times, dates and cities coincided. I am only sorry I could not do much much more!
