Welcome to the heart of craftsmanship and musical innovation – Aref Al-Sayed’s Workshop, a haven for enthusiasts, students, and professional musicians alike. Established in 2015, our workshop stands as a unique and exceptional project in Palestine, dedicated to the artistry of making, repairing, and maintaining both oriental and Western wooden instruments.
Crafting Excellence:
Our workshop is more than a place of business; it’s a center for excellence. We specialize in the meticulous creation, repair, and maintenance of a wide range of instruments, including oriental wooden instruments like sticks, as well as Western counterparts such as the violin, viola, cello, contrabass, and guitar. Catering to the needs of both students and seasoned musicians, we offer exceptional service, ensuring that every instrument leaving our workshop meets the highest standards and caters to individual tastes and preferences.
Innovation and Instrument Development:
What sets us apart is our commitment to innovation. Aref Al-Sayed’s Workshop goes beyond traditional instrument making; we actively engage in the development of musical instruments. By addressing issues like tuning, stability, and resonance, we ensure that the instruments we create not only meet but exceed the expectations of musicians. Our creative solutions, including unique archiving methods, result in high-quality instruments crafted to the artist’s specifications, each one documented for posterity.
Cultural Milestones:
We view the production of musical instruments as a cultural milestone, contributing to the rich tapestry of society and nation alike. Our workshop delves into the intricacies of instrument craftsmanship, studying issues like tuning, wood stability, and structural modifications. Aref Al-Sayed, a true creator and craftsman, brings a modern touch to his work through a blend of experience, musical imagination, and collaboration with like-minded professionals who share our commitment to artistic innovation.
Living History and Distinct Inheritance:
Each instrument that leaves our workshop carries with it the essence of effort, dedication, and commitment. It becomes a living history and a unique inheritance, distinguishing its owner and the artist who brings forth melodies from its folds. Managed by the skilled hands of Arif Al-Sayyid, the workshop draws from his extensive studies and experience in the manufacture and documentation of Palestinian cultural heritage, steering towards a future that is both bright and promising.
