Hi guys, I stumbled on this amazing concert from our very own Ameer's performance.

Well done buddy! and thats a sweet Kamil Mowais oud. Is that new?

Thanks. I bought that oud about a year ago when I was in Nazareth for the first time. As I recall it was made sometime in 2009. It's been a while though, I could be mistaken.

Great playing, Ameer! I didn't recognize some of the tunes you played . . . set list?

Sure:
1. Longa Yorgo
2. Shuruq - Jamil Bashir
3. Aziza - Mohammad Abdel Wahab
4. Mandira Hijaz - unknown, some people say Sultan Abdel Aziz but I'm not sure.

Great job youngman ! Bravo. I've shown this clip to uncle Kamil and he got very excited.

Thanks Ameer, I remembered the longa but not who the composer was. Shuruq threw me, not familiar with it—nice piece!

I hadn't heard of shuruq until someone posted a so-so version of it on the retreat page a few months ago.
