On the subject of Indian instruments, there's something called a chitravina (or gottuvadyam) that's used in the Carnatic music of south
india, and that's played using a slide. It looks something like a sitar, but it sits flat on the floor in front of the player. I've heard a
chitravina duetting with a pipa (the chinese lute), and the two complement each other perfectly. I'm expect it would sound great with an oud as
well.
BTW, I'm new here, and I must say that this board is pretty amazing.
