Muhammad Qadri Dalal bonanza!
I'm a big fan of MQD, but so far have only managed to find the single Inedit CD of his solo oud playing. Until now that is...
Just came across the following vinyl LP that someone has very kindly uploadad (plus the Salman Shukur Decca LP and a Fawzi Sayeb radio recording):

As if that wasn't enough, the man himself has also uploaded some of his taqasim to Youtube recently:

Enjoy!

Hi David
The Huseyni (Housaini) is really interesting and very nice - I'm used to hearing this in a more Turkish/Armenian style.
Thanks for posting
Leon

Hi Leon
I'm not sure where I read it, but I'm think Aleppo is pretty close "maqamically" to Turkey. Perhaps it has something to do with it being a major
centre for Sufism? I'm not really sure though. Where's al-Halabi when you need him!?! 
Incidentally, Hamza El Din does a nice version of Samai Husaini on his album "A Wish":

There is also another MQD Husaini taqsim on his album "Unwonted Maqamat":

All the best
David
P.S. Talking of Turkey, did you ever manage to get in touch with Tolga Bektas in Southampton?

This Muhammad Qadri Dalal video is particularly interesting:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9yzeY-uL3I
It sounds like a Samai Kurdi piece, with some very interesting modulations.
Does anyone know any more about this piece?

It is Dalal's own composition, Sama'i Hijaz Kar Kurd according to the caption at the start.

I try to purchase music whenever possible, so as to support the artists, or their estate. In this case the Muhammad Qadri Dalal cd is also available
on emusic.com. It's a legitimate site, and cheap.

Yes, so I'm not sure why the uploader has labelled it as Sama'i Hijaz on the page itself?

Thanks for sharing didnt know that existed such album
Mohammed Qadri Dalal is one of my favourites
Unfortunately I have only the Unwanted Maqamat album
Mohammed Qadri Dalal also participates at most of Al Kindi Ensemble albums and there he makes also beautiful taqassims.
He's still in Aleppo and safe
may God protect him and all Syrian borthers
