EDIT: All the recordings below and more are found in the newly added page http://www.mikeouds.com/qassab.html as the links may expire soon


Here is one recorded in 1962 ;)

Edit: The man who speaks in Arabic at the beginning of the recording says that it was Friday, Jan. 5, 1962, at the house of Mr. Mohammad Kawthar.

Yes, Thanks Reda...

Unfortunately now I am back in the West I feel 1,000,000 miles away from the oud and it's spirit --- with a million other things to do and think about now. But still I hope to find time to get into all these great links- - - also on all those other threads.

Dear Reda:

The Master Kasabji is one of the biggest, one of the most important, it is a giant and fundamental school between the laudist of all the time, thank you very much for choosing these wonderful performances especially in a forum where there are many people who have not been born in the Arab world and have not had the auditory formation and of sensations to savor this big master, thanks for illuminating the way.

I want to say a huge thank you too to Reda. These are real treasures and you've done a huge service to those of us who have a harder time getting hold of historic recordings. I hope you have them backed up somewhere.

Shoukran ya habibi!

EDIT: just a thought - it might be worth moving this post to the professional sound clips section so it doesn't get lost to future searchers. I'm assuming there's no copyright issue.

EDIT 2: I didn't know what to call this album in my itunes collection, so, in your honour, it's now called "from the collection of reda aouad". If that's not immortality, I don't know what is!

sure, moving it is no problem for me.

Yeah, Kasabji is amazing.... I have been downloading TONS of oud clips off youtube, and many of them I just delete. But this one clip I have of Kasabji... - I didn't have any idea who it was... - but people had recommended to me "OK'S oudi" . . . .then finally Antar told me this is HIM when I played it for him. I kept coming back again and again to this one clip... sometimes you feel you only need just a couple of really excellent clips rather than dozens for mediocre ones.

I wonder about the history of this man. Do he compose, or make his own albums, or tour as an oud soloist? --how did he meet OK?

Sure it's a good idea. But in fact, I've uploaded the clips to http://www.wikifortio.com which is for free, but they will only remain valid for 99 days after their upload time - the day I posted them here is the same day I uploaded them. So it will not be a good idea to move the links to the professional clips section. Maybe we can convince Mike to create a dedicated section on this website if he has some space to spare since each file's size exceeds the attachment limit.
What do you say Mike?

That's an honor to me :) I don't know what to say.. Thank you!

------------------------------

I can also post few more recordings of Al Qasabji soon, just give me some time. But as I said, we need a permanent online storage place for the future members. I am glad you enjoyed them ;)


* And Ed.. I'll try to give you some info on his life soon. When I'll have time I'll post here some translation of an article that has been published in March 2008 in "Al Akhbar" Lebanese newspaper.
