Hi everyone,
I hope your oud practice is going well everyone. I am wondering if any of you out there know where I can find Udi Hrant Kenkulian lyrics in
transliterated form. Any other Turkish and Armenian lyrics are welcome, too...Any advice?

Hi udi_amos, I'll start looking around for anything I can find.
I'm pretty sure I'll find some things, just give me some time.
Take care,
mav

Hi. I saw on the oud home page that you're looking specifically for siroun aghcheek.
One thing you could do is use software to slow down the song and write phonetically what he was singing.
http://www.ronimusic.com/
Go to that site and click the "amazing slow downer"
You can get a free trial, or do what i did and buy it for $40. It's great for correcting the pitch of old Turkish recordings to learn them, or
to slow down taksims so you can pick up all the extra notes.
Also try writing Mr. Harold Hagopian at Traditional Crossroads. He's nice, and definitely knowledgeable.

Mav,
Thanks a lot for that lead to that amazing slow downer software. It really is amazing, and I think is gonna be a huge help for those of us who
don't know how to read music! That would be me...
You're the best man! 
Late,
Mike
