Hi everyone! My name is Peppe and i am an oud player from Italy, i started my path 10 years ago with Yurdal Tokcan at his first seminar at Labyrinth Musical Workshop in Crete and since then i never stopped learning and getting inspired from him.

This year i released a duo album with the percussionist Francesco Savoretti and we just published a video-trailer of it in which we perform live part of it.

Hope you enjoy!

Very nice.
Upwelling sounds quite epic, could be a battle song !
Overall it sounds to my amateur ear like a mix between celtic/medieval and oriental music, which is very interesting.
Thanks for sharing !

Yes, I like the medieval/celtic sound that it has in some parts. The communication between Oud and percussion is excellent, lots of depth and many layers. Keep it up.
