A piece entiteled Black Sands appears on my cd Radio Noir and after being played on BBC Radio 3 got picked-up by a musical director who used it in a play, it is also being played by Britain-based Greek band Amanas. I too have played for belly dancers.
If you contact me off line I may be able to get some dots for you; meanwhile a sample of Black Sands can be heard at www.drohne.co.uk , albeit with a rather long improvisational pre-amble/ taxeme. Amanas have also done a recording with me guesting on gurdy and have promised to send me copy when they have finished playing in Greece and Calabria next month.

dear friends,
talking about tunes - a few weeks ago i met a few ladies who were
absolutely enchanted by the hg and since then keep on insisting of me
playing for them while they dance.
but - or better fortunately - they do very nice tribal / oriental /
belly - dance ... but what a pity, i know only two tunes suitable.
that will get a bit boring in time and i am now desperately seeking
sheetmusic for that kind of dance.
by the way, i met them just at a time, where i was beginning to leave
the french traditional music, and as i do oriental-dance myself it
would be just perfect. i really love ithe sound and dance and i
believe, tribal-dance ist very popular "over the pond"?
so i would be extremely grateful, if any of you knows a source or can
even send me some neatly arranged little black dots?
please?
