shaheen: mr. president, for 50 years the land and water conservation fund has done amazing work protecting our lands, our waterways, our forests, our state and local parks and critical wildlife habitats. this is particularly true in new hampshire, where since 1965, lwcf has funded more than 650 individual projects in new hampshire. just this month, new hampshire received eight new lwcf grants which will allow new hampshire communities to develop outdoor recreation facilities in dover, which is close to where i live, to renovate osgood pond in milford and so many other projects. in the last couple of months, i've had a chance to go around new hampshire and visit so many of these projects that were done because of lwcf grants. and one of the things that really struck me about them is that they're not for big projects, although some have been used towards doing that. the silvio conte national wildlife preserve that crosses new hampshire, was started with republican judd gregg from new hampshire, with

[traditional arabic music played on an oud] (shaheen) the oud is actually the most prominent instrumentarabic music. it has basically five double strings and one single low string, and it has a fingerboard here that is fretless-- open fingerboard, and this is how the quartertone quality is being produced, because you can slide and produce all the sounds. [plays example] usually the oud is being played in the context of the small ensemble or a larger one as accompaniment to a vocalist or as a solo instrument. it's a very old instrument. it comes from the guitar family in persia. it's the ancestor of the lute and the guitar family. the oud is actually the most prominent instrument in arabic music, and it's as valuable as the piano for the western composer or performer. as far as i'm concerned, this is one of the greatest instruments in the world. it's very dear to me. ♪ her cheeks were like the lily white ♪ ♪ that bloom in yonder valley, oh. ♪ (narrator) the human voice is perhaps the most flexible of all instruments.

(shaheen) the basics of the structured and improvised music is the maqam system. system, you have a set of scales that has certain characteristics. a certain feel, a certain mood. for example, there is a certain maqam that could relate very much to an evening time for example, or certain maqam can relate to a sad state of being. for example: [guitar plays tune using chromatic scale] in arabic music, the intervals is very much identified by what we call quatertones or microtonal intervals. and these are intervals that, from my experience with the western ear, it's very difficult to hear this quality because it's an interval or distance between two pitches that the ear is not used to. for example, if we listen to the third note, and i'm going to count, this is the first, the second, and the third. again. okay, so these are the first three notes in a scale that ifamiliar to many people that's called minor scale. okay, we can call it also-- we call it in arabic music nahawand it has a name. now let's listen to the third note in a different scale. first, second, third.
