Very Experienced Oudist needed for Interview

bhosford - 11-15-2005 at 11:12 AM

This is pretty urgent. I go to Texas State University and part of one of my classes is to present an instrument. I chose the oud, and I am supposed to have a video recorded interview with someone with a lot of experience playing oud (15 + years worth). I was supposed to interview someone, but there has been a big problem, and I need to find someone in the Austin/San Antonio area who would be willing to do so. I can meet them any time, but it needs to be within the next 2 weeks. The interview will probably take no more than 45 minutes. Please help, if you can, it's very important I find someone or I don't pass this class. :( thanks, Brian

In fact, I would be willing to go to most places in Texas to do this interview, so please let me know.

Brian, the closest person I can think of is Rahim al-Haj in New Mexico. See Rahim al-Haj website

Best wishes
