Couldn't have said it better, Emad.
I've also heard that the tunes that we use in the Church have come from the times of the pharaohs. Essentially, they took the tunes that they
knew previously by Coptic tradition and applied them to the new hymns that came along. That way, they wouldn't have to worry about the tunes,
because they already knew them.
Correct me if I'm wrong as well.

Hi TP21 
How are you mate? I hope you are doing well.
I thank you for joining in that topic.
Actually, The coptic era has lost lots of it's history writings. writings that go back to the time of Christ even before and lucky that there was
still some roman and greek historians who had no motives in keeping/hiding facts. They were only saving the history which made easy today to know
what we know about our old coptic culture. In a way I am so thankful to the Arabs because they did not hide the old Coptic christian musical
instruments but they have used it thinking that no one will dig in the history 
Peace
Emad

Hey guys. I know we haven't posted in this one for a while, but I found something from the Coptic Orthodox Church.
http://tasbeha.org/mp3/Songs/Coptic/David_Ensmble/Coptic_Hymns.html
This group, named the David Ensemble, has an oud player in it.
Bring on the files if you have em, fellas.

Haha... no, no. Not Emad. But Coptic, nonetheless. There's more than one out there, you know.

Here are some Byzantine style Traneem or Chants in Arabic by the Monks of the Melkite church from my hometown and baptismal place, Khenchara in the
Lebanon. They came form a CD of 20 tracks of Taraneem or chants of "Wa7eye el alam" or "The pains of the Messiah" by these Lebanese monks. I bought
the CD few years ago when I was at the monestary visiting. I will post the first 3 tracks in three posts (no oud or instruments but very spiritual.
Enjoy+(

It's not oud, but rather qanun and violin accompaniment with Met. Samuel (David) (see my website homepage). This man has an incredible voice. My
father and grandfather were aquantances of this man, and even sang for him.

i was glad to see this post active again. since the coptic and armenian churches are in communion with eachother i am including a choral work from
the armenian composer ganatchian (1885-1967), a native of istanbul, where he was a student of komitas (most important figure in armenian liturgical
music). he later settled in cyprus and then lebanon, where he was also known to have arranged many arabic works in addition to armenian ones.
i am posting the clip to the "professional sound clips" forum.
