The oud player is the humble Palestinian musician Simon Shaheen, born in the village of Tarshiha in Palestine. He has many albums and thousands of soundtracks for international films such as "Sheltering Sky" and "Malcolm X" and a music for many documentaries, Arabic music with jazz, Western classical music and Latin American music. Musician Simon Shaheen, in addition to the oud, is violinists with the same professionalism and beauty. His first artistic appearance was at the age of four. Shaheen was considered as a unique musical school, so it is no surprise that Former US president Bill Clinton honored Simon Shaheen at the White House.
@@qatari84al-qahtani81 not exactly, the word "Guitar" comes from derivation of indian and persian lute called Sitar or Setar and Tar. And unlike oud, they have frets or bars to guide the sound of the strings.. Gui-tar may be short for guia del tar.. Guia in Spanish means guide. The word Citharrra comes from Greek and Roman times, but origin again is from Indian and Persian. Spanish guitar has a direct ancestry from the Arabic oud or Persian Barbat, and also Persian Sitar or Tar. All of them were brought to Cordoba, Spain, in the 9th century by a muscian called Ziryab, who was of Persian origin but born in Iraq. And the true pronounciation of the name is Zaryab, in Persian or Kurdish, which means "liquid gold" or of "wealth and richness". Does not mean "blackbird" as some writers claimed.

Never noticed your comment under this video here (probably because I only got to know your account 2 months ago 😅) Anyway, I like your 3D work (especially the morph targets of your current model). Keep it up ✌️
39Thorns I love its deep sound. Underappreciated? In terms of playing on it in western-style music you are probably right. But hey, it's a Middle Eastern instrument so no wonder that is so. There are other instruments from that region (kanun, ney...) that are facing the same situation, but I don't find anything wrong in that. I guess this makes the whole world music more interesting. That way I can choose between Arab music, Hindustani Classical, Balkan, Scandinavian folk, African music or whatever. I have a choice not only because of different musical traditions but also because of different instruments used.
its the music scale tonality that is definitely, Middle Eastern/ Oriental, in origin. the Guitar incorporates Steel components in the construction of the instrument, with the frets and eventually strings these instruments don't have frets and all the materials for these instruments are organic, wood and 'gut' strings (Catgut, literally made from the intestines of animals) its that Harmonic-Minor scale that has that Spanish middle eastern sound there is history there btw with spanish Al-Andalus (Muslim Spain) its world music Baroque music from Middle Ages europe into the Renissance has alot of middle eastern sounding stuff, especially with Bach, even into Mozart. Church music will alway relay back to Jerusalem and 'Israel" and Middle Eastern Cultures.
Yup. Lately I've been playing lots of flamenco guitar and I thought it really sounded a bit Arabic and I see this video and yup. Edit: It's just phrygian, learned the music theory
And to think many of my fellow Westerners call these masterful Arabs uncivilized. Unsettling to say the least. I know better thankfully. Arab culture is the best philosophically based in the world.
not sure if you know or not, but the arab empire once was the epicenter of all cultural heritage spanning from spain, to africa, and the entire persian empire. the reason arab music sounds like spanish, is because spanish music is fundamentally, arabic music.
No it isn't, if it was then why is it necessary to delineate between Arabic and Spanish music, moreover is Arabic music essentially Persian? The oud was inspired by a Persian instrument and music from there? Or is Turkish Music essentially Greek? The Turks took a lot of inspiration from the Greeks when making their music. They may have evolved from there but the music styles are inherently unique.

So, how can I possibly listen to any western, even tempered, synthetic pop after hearing this? Probably Arabic scale systems are too nuanced for me to be really understood, but this definitely is far better than anything driven through any auto tune apparatus. I'd definitely prefer "outotune", though you the more musically gifted would probably love even that controlled.

Guithara was invinted in Iraq 4000 years back, there are ancient golden guthara in British musuem stolen from Iraq and another ancient silver guithara ( i dont remmber who stole it from Iraq ) . Oud was later invinted, but not sure where exactly. If u have historical resources for ur claim tell me. The flute most probably was invinted in Egypet 5000 years back, but also ancient flutes were founded in some north asia and in the Europe as well.

Wow, this is the first time, I have even heard of an Oud, and I am loving it. I think there is a sort of "raw' nature to the sound, which gives it a very oriental feel. A true virtuoso playing it makes it sound divine!
69wolf69pack69 This Arabic music machine is made the Latin music in Spain and South America (Arab Andalusian) and has made the oriental music (Turkish , iranien,arminien,afghan, Indian.......) and also influenced the African and Western music(jazz...) so it is the greatest musical instrument in the world
dimos kratos Simon Shaheen lives in the States, many American know him as an Arabic american Oud Master, so what do you expect them to type? in Arabic? Another thing there are many Arab in USA or In the UK have no arabic Keyboard so they type in English. It is Not show off or something as you think. You should be proud of being Arab and others write comments in English to show none Arab that Arab have culture and arts.
Yes. This music was absolutely beautiful. I'm in appreciation that members of my own species, as in human, were able to produce such beauty. I couldn't care less where on our planet they were born, what language they speak, or what color their skin is.
I'm glad that despite the hatred, people are connected through music. This music is beautiful and comes from the heart. No political or religious ideology can taint this beauty.
I don't know why someone would be distracted by race instead of such admirable tones (can't really imagine that); music doesn't belong to any race because all races like same music, so music is an universal language because all races feel it the same way, or all races feel the same way and they converge in music, I don't know; but's undeniable that music shows us that we're beyond any kind of shape or matter.

The Oud speak Arabic 😁😁
The oud is older than Arabic.
*Semite
Ouds persian
Oud is Arabic ... u can explode with ur hate
Keep calm and live the Arabic music ..
Persian .?? Hahaha all Persian has Arabic names , even there Alfa bet is Arabic , more ? Even 30-45% of Persian language has Arabic origin
Oud is Arabic word for the instrument, and has deep meaning in Arabic and it’s pure Arabic word
Secondarily: oud is produced by Arabs and Muslims , so it’s Arabic
U can burn from Insude but this Fact 😂😅😂😊👌🏼 Arabic oud is Arabic ;)

this piece is actually call Al Qantara and was inspired entirely by the similarities of traditional flamenco guitar and (eastern mediterranean) taqism due to the moorish influence of music in Spain. He discusses it in an interview with susan lewis.

You can hear the similarities between Arabian oud and Spanish classical guitar style...
كل احتراماتي الى اخواني العرب من الجزائر احبكم في الله 😍
La guitarra española desciende directamente de la música árabe, en algo se han de parecer.
Es la verdad es hermoso
قليلا ما نسمع تقاسيم موقعة .. هذه المقطوعة نموذج جميل منها ، لكنها ليست مرتجلة بأي حال وهذا قد يخرجها من دائرة التقاسيم إلى دائرة المقطوعات حيث الارتجال الفوري سمة أساسية لفن التقسيم

This guy could beat Kirk Hammett in a downstroke speed test.
No kidding. He has amazing technique.
I was expecting a metalhead in here.
@@umrasangus Good music is in our blood :) although Metallica isn't my cup of tea anymore
@@hwt-ka-pth Who is this "we"?
He can also probably beat Kerry King at tremolo picking
Amazing sound! To think that before 1492, you could walk over the French border into Southern Spain,(Al Andalus!!) & hear this glorious music!!...Western European musicians were greatly influenced by Eastern Sound!
The guitar was born based on the Oud
This is Flamenco guitar
Rafael Vargas Cano ik im late but im gonna point this out arabs invaded spain and occupied it for almost half a mellinium (if thats how you spell it) and brought arabic literature including your beloved guitar you think that ancient arabs were the made in china of their time sadly muslims and arabs detest alchol but what we did was bring the word alchol in to the english dictonary or vocabulary or whatever. thank you for your humble giving a shit
+ Rafael Vargas Cano
You're looking at a Guitar or Oud you asshole? lmao, Oud was made more then 4000 years ago, and yet you're saying this is flamingo hahahahahahahaha
Cl Blech I’m so confused 🤷♂️
@@mansouralrayssi8751 In Arabic Alcohol are chemicals. Khamr is the word for spiritual drinks that makes you drunk. So we don't say wine and wiskey are alcohols, we say they're Khamr. Alcohol is more scientific.
Me: dies. Battlefield 1:
Damn snipers on the desert maps
I've watched this more than 20 times and I still think it's amazing.
سيمون انت مفخرة الحضارة العربية في امريكا
@Noof MRS و انتي عنصرية مو عربية لا مكان لك بين العرب
Wow, this is the first time, I have even heard of an Oud, and I am loving it.
I think there is a sort of "raw' nature to the sound, which gives it a very oriental feel.
A true virtuoso playing it makes it sound divine!
69wolf69pack69 This Arabic music machine is made the Latin music in Spain and South America (Arab Andalusian) and has made the oriental music (Turkish , iranien,arminien,afghan, Indian.......) and also influenced the African and Western music(jazz...) so it is the greatest musical instrument in the world
@@tunisianprince2652Arabic music made also techno and rap
اكتر شئ يغيظني هم العرب اللدين يكتبون باللغة الانجليزية محبة للظهور امام الغربين بمظهر المتعلمين المطلعين جاتكم وكسة يا اوباش
dimos kratos المشكله من يكتبون العربيه باحرف انجليزيه
dimos kratos صدقت يااخي
عرب هذا الزمن لايستحقون هذه اللغة , لغة ثرية و معبرة , لا يملكون فخر بنفسهم وذاتهم ولغتهم ونحن بصراحة عار على اجدادنا مع الاسف
صدقت يا أخ العرب ،كفو .
dimos kratos Simon Shaheen lives in the States, many American know him as an Arabic american Oud Master, so what do you expect them to type? in Arabic?
Another thing there are many Arab in USA or In the UK have no arabic Keyboard so they type in English.
It is Not show off or something as you think. You should be proud of being Arab and others write comments in English to show none Arab that Arab have culture and arts.
Magnificent beyond words.
C''c'est LA PLUS GRANDE ET BELLE de tout le monde ARABIA BON FUTUR À TOUS KAT DE MONTROTTIER

Daaaaaaaamn thats some crazy skills O_O
Thank you for this music. It's beautiful. Greeting from Switzerland and Thailand. Nathanaël
enjoy the music and appreciate the artist without being a racist
sam teria,well said...
Yes. This music was absolutely beautiful. I'm in appreciation that members of my own species, as in human, were able to produce such beauty. I couldn't care less where on our planet they were born, what language they speak, or what color their skin is.
I'm glad that despite the hatred, people are connected through music. This music is beautiful and comes from the heart. No political or religious ideology can taint this beauty.
I don't know why someone would be distracted by race instead of such admirable tones (can't really imagine that); music doesn't belong to any race because all races like same music, so music is an universal language because all races feel it the same way, or all races feel the same way and they converge in music, I don't know; but's undeniable that music shows us that we're beyond any kind of shape or matter.
I wished I was Arabian to have learned this instrument earlier.
That's my racism.
theres something about fretless instruments that make it so much more badass and authentic

شكرا ودمتم سالمين.
A consummate artist for whom I have always had great respect. Thanks to a dear mutual friend (a "Greek Goddess") who introduced me to his music!
imagine a man talking aout thing that make him mad...asking questions, walking around, explaining, and another man, an old man saying ,, son sit down and listen to this story that will teach you how life goes around,, ....then the flute starts, the first man asking questions the old man answering then telling the story, then contradicting them selves then the olnd man continuing the story......
Well I too heard the instruments talking...
Incredible authentic sound!!!! Adding to my wishlist!!!
Love the Oud especially the way this incredibly gifted Son of God plays!!! Hallelujah!!! 🙏💖✌️
I love his sound and his playing. He throws in the Flamenco pieces every once in awhile which fit perfectly. One time he started to bring in the Flamenco and the Flutist came in and broke it. That's ok though, it still sounded awesome. I purchased an Oud and started to learn but after a shoulder operation I couldn't play due to the pain. I still pick it up every once in awhile but mostly just look at it....
Great piece of music and great sound as well
Thank You from Idaho, US
Flamenco is from moors and arabs WoooooW
What a pure form of music !
Love from India.
انت صاحبة ذوق رفيع
AMAZING my love arabian music
I'm trying to learn the Oud rn but I have to wait for new strings. I am SO EXCITED
Good luck
Have u been playing
We just extend the bridges from Arabic East to the West with music once again.
And to my beloved Andalusia and Spain.
Ola!from Brazil.It is so beautiful melody.Although i not understand Arabic language.

@@lucidesabarreto2999 sim, som maravilhoso. Pretendo estudar mais a cultura do oriente médio para reproduzir sons de regiões distintas.
Pois de forma leiga achamos que são todos iguais porém há variações que para nativos são bem distintas....
As a listener of old funk and classic rock, this enchanted my soul. Truly feel the power of god
