Help Identify Melody - Ottoman Origin?


Greetings fellow oud maniacs,

I am trying to find the origins of the attached melody. I have been told that it may be of Ottoman origin. To my ears, it sounds a bit "juvenile," like a nursery rhyme.

Does anybody know anything about it?

I know the melody because, in the "Yerushalmi" (Jerusalem Jewish) tradition we sing the 150th Psalm to this melody.

I have not been able to find full example of this on-line, but you can hear a sample here: http://www.amazon.com/Tuning-Soul-Worlds-Jewish-Sacred/dp/B000QQW5L... (Track #15) (Yours truly on oud...a long time ago!)

Sorry for the sloppy manuscript!

Teşekkürler/شكراً/תודה/ممنون
"Udi" John
