I have a similar collection of "Instrumental Oud" playing only Oum Khulthum's songs-Both front cover have Mr. Sunbathi picture and the
playing style is pretty much the same style as those 2 clips that Jameel post. Sadly theres also no description about who is playing the Oud for this
recording! I dont think its Mr. Sunbathi playing as the mix of the recording sound very new and modern-I will try to post the front cover images and
also try to ask around when Im in Cairo later this month-regards |
Zul,
What's the name of the CD?

Hey Zul,
Thanks. This is definitely the same guy. This album has some different songs, but the style and playing is identical. I found the website, and it has
some clips. I'll be ordering this one.....

Hey guys,
Those are pictures of Sunbati on the covers of the albums, but the player could be his brother. I don't remember his name. I have a tape of
remakes of Sunbati's compositions, and his brother plays oud accompanied by ney, kanun, violin, and percussions. Nice find Jameel. I'll be
ordering them too!
Take care,
Mike

Hi Jameel
Did you manage to find any way of ordering these recordings on the Mirage website, or did you just email them? I guess they are on CD rather than
cassette, but I could not really tell from the site either. Either way, it would be great to know who the oud player is when you receive them.
Best wishes
David

I am taking a shot in the dark and at the expense of sounding ignorant... But could the name of the artist be Sameh Adel or "Same7 3adel"? I
see that written in Arabic on the covers you posted.

What it says
Guys,
Sameh Adel is the Producer of the records.
The company is indeed "Mirage (Digital)"
The rest is the titles of the songs, but nowhere is there the name of the musicians. Sorry...

Sunbati
I have the first and the second of the Al-Nazaer Sunbati CDs (I got them in Kuwait). Yes, the style is different from Sunbati's, perhaps not as
refined although technically very accomplished. I find the incessant tremolo a bit overpowering, but it's good stuff apart from that.

I wrote to the company in Egypt, but they won't sell to us here in the USA. Bummer.
Zul, can you get these CD's in Malaysia? I would really like to have these, but I'm especially disappointed now after years of searching.

I contacted the folks at maqam.com. The owner really appreciates the classics, and was excited about these cd's. He's going to try to
order a bunch. Apparently he's dealt with this compnay before.

Hey Zul,
Are these the same as the Cd's on their website? The covers look a little different. Have you discovered maybe some new recordings for Sunbati?
Let us know. In the meantime, hopefully maqam.com will start carrying these albums. Tell us more about your trip to Egypt.

Hey Zul,
Those first two pictures you put up are of the Saeed Issa recordings. There are four of them, and they are available on most Arabic CD websites. They
aren't the mirage records tapes. I think the third picture might be though. The last one is the Sunbati taqsims. Glad to hear you had a great
time in Egypt, and welcome back!
Take care,
Mike

Hi!
Thanks Mike! Glad to be back here too! Yes the first 2 pics are from Said Issa recordings (I only manage to get those 2 volumes) The Sunbathi/Khulthum
that I have there are the last one of the third set from Mirage Record.
