new taso theorakis ud

cossak - 1-27-2008 at 04:02 PM

hello all -

i'm new to the forum - and wanted to put in a plug for tasos theodorakis, from whom i just bought the oud pictured here. it has a deep throaty sound and a resounding bam telli. incredibly light in weight as well. i will be growing into this instrument for a while - also, a great way to spend some time in thessaloniki!

i live in upstate ny in binghamton - and am playing smyrnaika/rebetika on both the oud and the six string bouzouki. now to begin the process of studying a bit more formally. i speak and read turkish so i don't have an excuse not to be a bit more on top of ottoman musical theory.

i enjoy everyone's posts!

Very beautiful indeed !! :)
It reminds me of an old Vassilaki he has in his collection.
Kaloriziko from me too and Congratulations to Taso one more time for his work

Hi Costa

Lovely looking oud - I'm waiting on my Tasos oud in the next few weeks so I feel very excited for you. Play it with great passion and heart.
