A majence is different than a classic and a Turkish oriental.

Drumsolos are basically a song based solely on percussion instruments, with lots of isolation moves!
Turkish Roman havasi

This style has a characteristic 9/8-rhythm, fun footwork and lots of gestures!
Turkish oryantal
Helene performing a Turkish oryantal in Istanbul.
Turkish oryantal is different than majence and Egyptian oriental both in style and music.

Saidi can be performed with or without a cane (or with more canes than one!)
