Hey Morcos,

Really nice oud my friend. I think it's made of bird's eye maple ("eyn katkoot" in Arabic). Very cool looking for sure. Your playing was very nice too. Another Copt on the forums. You should get together with Joe in Sydney.

Take care,
Mike

Man what a great thread! Thanks for bringing this back up Emad. I will definately try to post something when I get a chance probably this weekend. Also, Emad, I have to repost this site that TP21 made with your recordings.

http://www.angelfire.com/music5/emadsydney/index.html

I loved the third taqassim. Emad, if you don't mind me asking, how long have you been playing oud? Any formal Training? The one thing I find myself strugilng with the most is to produce an authentic Arabic sound. I always stray away and start playing something that sounds more western than arabic. Thats probably becuase I spent 7 years of my life playing in a school band where I listened to western music for at least an hour every day.

wow


If everything in life would come that easy !!!


Thank you Brian for the idea and thank you Mike for making it happen.

Revaldo29, Thanks for your kindness. I look forwards to more of your playing. I think the best advice to you is to listen to more of arabic songs and melodies. try to focus on one that you think you like and master it. Jumping from one song to the other without mastering one is not going to help you. for example try a song like "Zalamoh" for Abdel Halim Hafez - listen to it carefully - ask members about it if you have any questions try to play it well then move to another song. This way you will learn and have good experience. I am sure we all are ready to help when we get a chance.
Good luck. I have been playing on and off for about 17 years now. What helped me the most is listenning to lots of arabic songs and trying to play them. I was also lucky to have Mr. El Turk Anton who helped me alot. Mr. El Turk is one of George Mecheal cusins.

I am so thankful for TP21 for making this web page. I wish I can do the same for him. Thank you all for your kind words. :bowdown:

Please lets post more oud playing.




Kind Regards,

Hello Adel,

I thank you for your kindness and really appreciate your well selected words.

I do miss Egypt a lot and indeed the more I play the oud the more I wish to go there for a visit. I thank God for the oud for it preserve the culture in me.

What about you brother?

Hi Emad,

It´s the same thing with me. I was born in Lebanon and I can´t wait to get back for a visit. I live in Santiago, Chile. With all things happening there it´s very painfull to see your country being destroyed again and again.

The oud, is my visa and my ticket travel to my traditions, who lives now in my heart.

I think it´s so great this kind of website, because it makes meet people form all over the world who fight to preserve there traditions thrue art and music.

I hope some day to record something and post it to shear with you too.

hughs,
Adel

Nice taqaseem. Very Farid-like. Thats my server youre having problems with. I don't have much space there, so I eventually delete the files. It's not your fault, there is simply nothing there to download. Sorry....

Hey everybody,

Here's the taqsim from the Kan Zaman concert last week. Hope you all enjoy.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ae_KMg10fss

Beas.One, I didn't get to meet you, but I remember you posted somewhere on the forum that you'd be there. Mike, I saw you front row (!) but I didn't get to catch up with you afterwards. Hope you're doing well, buddy.

hijaz taksim


Well....I was contemplating on if I should post something up here or not. I went on a limb and recorded two of my favorite scales (hitzaz and minor). I was going to post just one. I haven't really shown anyone my work so please feel free to critique my playing. I've had no guidance through my journey with the oud so I can use some here! :D

Enjoy.

This taksim was played with this oud: http://www.mikeouds.com/messageboard/viewthread.php?tid=6409
