Trying to transcribe Marcel Khalife's Amar Al Miraye, but can't tell whether the high E and D are played by Marcel or another oud (or perhaps another
instrument?)
I think this is one oud. If you listen closely, the places where the higher part drops out are exactly where a single oudist couldn't sustain both
parts.
I had the good fortune to play with Marcel (as did our fellow oudi John V., aka bulerias) as part of the New York Arabic Orchestra a couple of weeks
ago and can tell you that he is quite capable of playing both parts to something like this.BaniYazid - 11-15-2011 at 04:18 AM
Is there some reverb/echo/delay or other effect ?Franck - 11-15-2011 at 05:05 AM
I think 2 ouds, they are panned left and right...Brian Prunka - 11-15-2011 at 05:56 AM
You're right! I guess I was wrong. Still, it seems a single oudist could get very close. katakofka - 11-15-2011 at 01:37 PM
2 ouds. Most of this album was on Ouds that Marcel played both.
This one is 2 ouds (Marcel) and a Bouzouk guest to the album by Ziad Rahbani http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0GNhi5jkhHY&feature=relatedspyros mesogeia - 11-15-2011 at 02:40 PM
