Description
It has been considered one of the most important instruments within Arabic music for centuries and still is considered a holy grail today. The Oud has evolved over the years, in size, sound, and tuning. It is widely played across the Middle East in a variety of styles and genres. The versatility of this intoxicating instrument is one of the main reasons it has been so easily adapted throughout a variety of countries in the Middle East including Egypt, Syria, Turkey, and Armenia. While there are many styles played on the Oud, the most significant is the Arabic Maqam, something that we will discuss in detail later.
