Hi Guys

Can anyone help me to identify this Takasim and the Oud player? I think its in Maqam Bayati. I got this one back in 2001 tru the internet but there is no description on it. Sorry for the poor quality (its a straight way recording from my player to cool edit) The file is in my MD and I cant transfer it properly coz of the copyright law (SONY ATTRAC format) I will try to find away and resend it again with better quality!

Many thanks in advance


Regards

Zul

Hi

I try many times to upload the files but it seems not working-Im not sure why (the file is 2.27mb) is it too large?

Hope Mike can help!

Regards

Whoa, it's huge. Send it to me in my e-mail and I'll try to shrink it down for you. Quality is gonna suck though if it's already bad, but we might as well get it up. truepharaoh21@yahoo.com

Hi jean

Well I dont have any information on this really:( The file was downloaded back in 2000 where I was just started to learn the oud) I was using napster to download songs and also for oud takasim etc. I didnt really pay attention that time so I just download it and save the file on my MD.

It sound very Arabic but nice and simple-I think its in maqam bayati. Try listen to the takasim bayati below by El Qasabji (the intro start with a similar style) so I thought maybe his student or i dont know..could be anybody really.
