The title is actually Üsküdar, it comes from a musical/theatrical play.
Nice oud.

I am showing my age here, but the first time I heard this tune was a rendition of it sung by Eartha Kitt.
My folks had the record (recorded in 1953) and, as a youngster, I listened to it endlessly. Who knows, maybe it was that (western) record that turned
my mind on to eastern music.
Wikipedia says, "It is based on the Turkish folk song Kâtibim about a woman and her secretary traveling to Üsküdar."
Here is Eartha's version http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sVXFDtC_gqk&feature=related
Regards,
Greg
