This thread reminded me of a few videos I found on YouTube.
These videos are very interesting. Let's compare the sounds shall we? (with the limits of digital sound processing through cameras 
)

Thanks for sharing! The barbat is such a complicated/strange topic (for many historical and often times nationalist reasons) it is good to just hear
the instrument played in different hands to make sense of it in regards to the 'oud' more broadly.
