This is an old recording of one of Marcel Khalifeh's very first taped performances with the Orchestra of The National Music Institute of Lebanon, back in 1966.
It was recorded in Lebanon TV in a talk show of the late comedian & musician Najib Hankash, called Hankashiat.
As to the legendary oud, it's an Egyptian oud that belonged to the Lebanese Conservatoire. No information about the maker.
Reference: Marcel Khalifeh
I believe it's a Jamil George's masterpiece.

Yours indeed

Jamil,
what is the title of this song? In Latin writing, not Arabic please, which I unfortunately cannot read (yet)... :applause:

It's Um Kolthoum song, by M. Abdelwahab - music & George Jerdaq - lyrics "Hazehe Lailaty", 1968.

Yours indeed
