  • Interesting North African lute-type instrument, the ud. Lovely tune.

    Hamza el Din taught me for free when i was 15 to 18 in Oakland california. He taught me how to feed the squirells in his front yard tree.... to open the windows and listen....to spice my cigarettes... to accept those younger than you.... to respect those older and wiser than you. He taught me how to hear things you have never heard. He taught me to pioneer and remember your roots. He taught me how to take music from the world and how to give it back. Thank You Hamza. Love and peace,
    luke

    Hamza was an incredible talent and generous soul. He came to my Arabic class at the University of Texas, Austin several times in the 1970s and would perform at 9 am ... it seemed that he had spent the night playing the oud, so it wasn't a problem for him to get up and arrive punctually to the 9 am class. Truly amazing and inspiring..

      This music is not ancestral, I mean it's new and fusional in essence. It's a mix between nubian rhythms and arabic/middle eastern maqam system. It's in the maqam bayat-e.

    Just to clarify to everyone here, I am an Oud player and know its history as well as anyone. The Oud means "wood" in Arabic. Because basically the Oud was the first String Instrument that had a wood "face" before that string instruments had skin faces. The Oud actually originates from Iran, though it is no longer a dominant instrument in Persia and is mostly associated with the Arabic world now. I personally think the Oud probably came from the Chinese Pipa, being that the silk road brought thes

    usually eleven strings, two strings on: C, G, D, A, F (from top down) and one string on low C. Twelve pegs with one empty. Some people do it differently.
    The hardest part of oud is actually the picking technique (at least for me).

    e cultures together. Then what happened is that Zyriab, the famous Oud player of Baghdad (where the Oud came to its first Zenith) fled from fear od eath and escaped to Cordoba in Spain. The Oud became the archetype for the Lute and the Guitar, BUT, my own opinion is that it was just part of the equation. Spain was truly at this time was kind of the first melting pot country in so far as it held Islamic, Christian, Jewish, and other cultures in balance. But anyways, it doesn't really matter.
