Sada el Rouh


Hello
i would like to post some other sound files of my ghadban oud, Sada el Rouh, just because i am becoming crazy about it!

The fact is that it's the first time that a modern oud make me have a difficult choice with my Nahat!...and it's new...

I also really love the 13strings, i think that the future of the oud in the development of technical skills and melodic research could pass trough 13strings....What do you think about it?
I wonder why not a lot of people play them...i find it very easy and immediate to play with..

by the way for me 13strings has been a final and happy solution due to the always hard decision on what tipe of tuning to use, 11 or 12strings?so it's all in one....
Salamat

Elias,

Excellent! Think what this oud will sound like in several years. I hope my oud sounds this good (fat chance!). How about posting a sample of your Nahat here too so we can compare.

Hala hala Elias Bey,

Very beautiful playing and very beautiful sounding oud. Maybe one of Ustaz Nazih's finest ouds. Elias, if you would like, you could email me a longer sound file and I can upload it and provide a link to the file. You can send me the recording to mike@mikeouds.com

Take care,
Mike

Thank you so much Mike,
ok, i'll try to record something good and i'll send you, for the moment i could send you the full "Sada.mp3"file , so it's better to listen to it complete and not divided in 2parts..

Elias, I hope you post a lot on this board. I love the way you play.
Both instruments sound superb but I think the Nahat still sounds a bit more full-bodied. But, of course, the Ghabdan is brand new.
Mabrouk, Elias. Post a lot so we can learn from you.

You're right Jonathan, Nahat is still more full-bodied, but it's hard to find brand new ouds that could be so close in sounding....
thanks so much for apreciating my playing!:)

Hey Elias,

Thanks for sending me the files. Elias also sent me another longer recording. It would be a shame to compress these files any, so I just uploaded them at 128 kbps for us all to enjoy.

Elias Recording One
Elias Recording Two

Take care,
Mike

thank you for your nice words Hamed, it's about two years and half that i focalized on Oud but i was already inside music,...

Spectacular!!!


Elias, your playing is wonderful. If I had to guess, I'd say the first recording Mike posted was the Nahat but... the 2nd recording is just amazing - are we listening to 13 strings there? Both ouds sound fantastic. Is it possible to see some photos? Is the Ghadban oud a traditional design or a floating bridge?

Wonderful sound!

Masallah. I can't tell you how much I love those two tracks. You have got to be a professional. Have you recorded cds? I have bought music that I have not enjoyed one tenth as much as those two tracks. Not just fast and accurate, but so precise, and with passion. Thank you.

Hello, Elias. Your playing is outstanding and I hope you post more. May I ask what tuning you use for 13 strings?

thanks to everybody

Aghi Elias.I cant wait to get mine,Nazih had started on building my Sada El Rouh.
The sound files that Mike posted are great walaha Nazih was impressed in the way you play the oud.You said that you have been playin for Two and a half years.Wish i can play half of what you do after Two and a half years.Walahai this oud sounds great and you too. Witout a good oud player the oud wont sound so great.Keep the good job and congratulations on that lovely oud.Salamat.Samir,California
The Nahat is Great and sounds great too but the 13 strings of Sada Al Rouh is great tooand I just love it.
