Iliad part 6.Achilles attacked Agamemnon with bitter words. “You drunkard, with the face of a dog and the heart of a coward. You never have the courage to go into battle or join the men in an ambush. You would rather stay on the beach stealing the prize of anyone who stands up to you. A leader who is no better than a parasite. I now make a solemn oath on the sacred staff I hold in my hands: onc...

The Iliad part 4. Achilles replied to Agamemnon. “You are completely shameless. How do you expect men to follow you into battle? I have no quarrel with the Trojans: they have done me no harm; never stolen oxen or horses of mine nor destroyed my crops. The far-resounding seas and many great mountains lie between us. We joined you - you shameless dog-faced swine - to right the wrong suffered by y...

So I am to give up the dark-eyed Ch...

The opening of Homer's Iliad. The god Apollo sends a plague upon the Achaean army.
Просмотров 502 месяца назад
This is the opening of Homer's great epic poem The Iliad. Sing muse, sing the wrath of Achilles, that brought so much suffering on the Achaeans and tore many brave souls from their breasts, sending them to Hades, the darkest of caves, their limbs torn by birds and dogs. All this was according to the will of mighty Zeus. It all began with strife between Agamemnon, King of Men, and the godlike Ac...

I have one of these guitars purchased on eBay. I really love playing it and now after 4 years it is still my favorite resonator. I have owned moan but this one has great tone and I have adjusted neck only once

Well spotted according to my notebook it is Hijaz Kar. The notes are c, d flat, e, f, g, a flat, b, c.
Impressive work, all of it until now, please do continue. The world needs to know of this story again.
Thank you very much it is great to know that someone is interested.
Good
Thanks
That’s the best thing I’ve ever heard before, keep going, i loved it 💗💗💗💗
Thank you very much. Nice to know that someone is listening.
Gorgeous playing!! Inspires me to pick back up my guitar.
Thanks the acoustic really helped I liked playing there.
hi , there i think you need to try to make a very good tunning for more quality sound i know is very hard for OUD but try to use apps tunning on your phone. Good luck sir.
Thanks for the tip
I have used a tuning app but I also tried just tuning by ear to see what it was like. Nice of you comment.
@@charityshopguitar8790 If you use a good one it will help a lot.
You need to work out the weight of the string
Thanks for the tip
I will think about that one. Thanks for commenting.
Wow😲 this sounds so good 😊😊 keep up the good work
Thank you very much. It is a great instrument to play.
Great job mate!😃
Thanks very much. I hadn't played the bass for a good while but decided to give it a go again. I still struggle a bit with the big frets.
@charityshopguitar8790 Well, keep practising, and you'll get the hang of it. I am a guitarist, and I agree with you, the frets are too big on the bass!😂
Keep it up, beautiful oud !
Thanks I will. Yes it is a very beautiful oud. It is a purpleheart wood oud I bought from Ethnic Musical.
Nice
Thanks!
Who knew hermantrout played the oud
Well played mate. That's a beautiful instrument. Does it have 11 strings? I have never seen one before. I am assuming the 11th string is like a bass string for creating the beat sort of thing. I've been playing the guitar since I was 16 but I've never improved past novice lol.
yes it has 11 strings and the base string is used as a base the instrument is the ancestor to the guitar and is called the Oud. Also the lute comes from the word al oud which became lute when it was translated into several european lnaguages from spanish to the oresent day!!
fantastic . Maker?
I don't have a maker's name for this out but I bought if from Ethnic Musical. It is a purpleheartwood oud. It is very beautifully made.
@@charityshopguitar8790 Definitely sounds beautiful Enjoy Let me have your e mail ı will send you a fantastic cd by grand master udi Hrant its Crossroads Traditional 4265 if you can find it :)))

Thank you very much. It is great to know that someone is listening. I am going to use some samples from this track on an album I am working on. I like the low go sound of the old cassette tapes.
Great job 👏
Thank you very much. It is great to know someone is listening.
Nice play but your Oud is Not properly tuned
I must work on that.
or it might just be my playing.
tune it to (Mi La Re Sol Do Mi) from lowest to highest
@@thatbleak1860 ruclips.net/video/8FeUD8Hu-5k/видео.htmlsi=Q2oHYEUfHRl-H4u8 This is the system I use. Though I must get better at tuning.
You'd enjoy it much more if you learned Arabic music
Yes I intend to that but it will take time.
😞 *promo sm*
Really nice Arabic inspiration 🎼🎶
Thank you very much.
You look like kind man, keep it up. You doing good bro
Thanks I hope I am making progress. It is good to know that someone is listening.
Beautiful

I’m 61 yrs young so I’m guessing your around my age? I play guitar never been in a band never taken lessons and grew up in the 70s. I appreciate the creativity but we grew up with the greatest musicians and songwriters of all time! Keep working on it! I’ll look forward to your next videos..
Thanks for your encouraging comments I really appreciate them. I am actually 65,but I know what you are going to say I don’t look it.
Woaaa!!! Thats was soo good!!! DAMMNNN!!!!!!! I LOVE IT
Thank you very much. Having good comments encourages me to keep going.

Youa re right, it is a Hofner violin bass that is similar to the one Paul McCartney used.
👍!!
Amazing improvisation! Very nice
Thank you very much.
What an awesome guitar!
Yes I love it.
Wow
Thanks for your comment. Always surprised when someone actually watches.
@@charityshopguitar8790 u just put hijaz and guitar on the thumbnail and it is just obvious to me to click on it. 😍😍
maqam nikriz/dorian #4 has this particular warm darkness, can sound mournful and intense, great tune
ionian flat6, great sounding maqam, very romantic and wistful sound
Yes thanks for your comment the first ever on my channel. Nice to know there is someone listening!
@@charityshopguitar8790 thank you. I like to see what others get from guitar compatible maqamat, I use western harmony for modal progressions which would outline home and character chords or dyads in a rhythmical riff and then jam over it starting and finishing phrases on homechord's tones and then character tones through out the whole progression, so by using a modal progression, I dont have to follow the chord changes, which helps me to shred the scales
@@1000BrokenKeys An interesting approach.
hello, great to see someone enjoying playing ET compatible makamat. Nahawand murassah, second mode of Shawq Afza/harmonic major. there are great sounding maqamat in the harmonic major scale, the fifth mode, the maqam zanjaran/mixolydian flat2 and the third mode the maqam saba zamzam/phrygian flat4. and the fourth mode, the lydian flat3 mode. I have some of that on my channel.
