Bayat, is a common maqam in Quran recitals, Adhan and Qasidas such as
The scale (sullam)
While learning, it may be useful to focus entirely on one single maqam for some period, and to to stick to one tone, namely D for Bayat.
Modulations:
There are two main modulations, called Shuri and Husaayni – i suggest not to listen to them, until the basic (asli) maqam is chrystal clear. Also to appretiate this, one needs to over the ajnas involved (ajnas are partial scales) – i.e. Nawahwand (for the asl), Hijaz and Rast.
