Can you help me identify this oudist?

Hello fellow oudists,

I recently rediscovered this file, it is called semai.mp3, but what it really is Muhayyerkurdi saz semai, originally composed by Sadi Isilay (which I am learning at the moment). I must have gotten it from this site in some thread, any ideas who the oud player is?

Thanks!

BTW, this is another file, which seems to be the taqasim to this piece. Sorry if I'm attaching items that have posted before, but I am really interested in knowing who the player is.

Thanks.

hey sam. sorry i can't say who this is, it's definitely turkish style playing. i'm going to look around some things that i have and see if it sounds like anyone.

Thanks man. I am finally reorgazining my music files. I have 2000 files of Middle Eastern Music, that I am combing through for the arrival of my I-Pod, and maybe one third in this list has no mp3 id of artist, or song. What a pain!

Hello Mr.
I am looking for solo oud sound files(but not taksims) of "Turkish Style" Necati Çelik, M.Nurettin Beken, Cinuçen Tanrıkorur etc. or some one else who perform semai, peshrev or longa with only oud.

Best Regards....
