- found: The Garland encyclopedia of world music. V. 6, The Middle East:pages 996-997 ("the term muqam as used by the Uygurs refers more to a sequence of pieces than to a mode or modal category. This sequence is comparable to a suite, although the Uygurs do not use that word to describe it. Muqam may also refer to classical Uygur music and its repertoire in general"; "every muqam must have an introduction in a free rhythm, followed by a series of other sections subdivided into items that are quite diverse in nature")
