Ahmad Damen realized that World Music research is based on a comparative study with Western Music Theory. Thus, he asked, how would this field of study be like if the music of the world were studied based on a Middle Eastern Theory model instead?

Note: Ahmad is not an expert on this subject but is sharing information in the hopes of spurring interest in the subject.
