October 14, 2024 ~ SUKKOT. SIGAH/AJAM/BAYAT
Maqam Sasgar - ססגאר - 'Saz kar' in Arabic; in SUHV consists of only three songs by Raphael Tabbush. Other older manuscripts classify some of the other Ajam songs into this maqam. Musically, this maqam is the Ajam scale transposed to F-Jiharkah. The Turkish Sazkar is the scale of Rast with emphasis on Bayat and Sigah jins that exist within the Rast scale. In terms of "Maqam of the Week", Maqam Sasgar is option for Shabbat Shofetim and the second day of Shalosh Regalim. According to Dr Idelsohn, the meaning of the wording Sasgar is derived from a name of a Persian instrument "Saz". In addition, Idelsohn mentions that this maqam was not known in Egypt, and instead, Maqam Jirkah was applied.
