Riad El-Soumbati Taqasim CD Reissued
Riad El-Soumbati's classic taqasim CD has been reissued. I am very happy to have it, since the sound quality of my cassette version was terrible.
My two gripes: The English title of the CD, "Oud: The Breath of Arabic Music" and CD jacket information don't even mention Riad El-Soumbati; there are
no liner notes at all.
You can buy it here: http://www.buyarabic.com/storeItem.asp?ic=MUAR002427
BTW: BuyArabic.com is the "Arabic" branch of of the Turkish site, Tulumba.com, which I really, really like.
Happy Listening,
John

I know! What's up with the Iraqi Bashir "floating bridge" oud on an Egyptian oud CD?

Yes, difficult to find the cd in this case !
If think the draw is more a pirouette to avoid the copyright of a photo and it seems there was no music consultant either...
It is already unavailable ! I'm happy I bought it just in time

Great music indeed. Very important CD.
Thanks to John E. to have told us about it.
Such a musician remains well alive without a signature, that's the most important.
