The first time I heard Arabic oud was while watching my then- belly dance hero, Rachel Brice, dance live for the first time. She performed a gooey, wonderfully slow dance to what I thought was a flamenco guitar piece. I later asked her what that guitar tune was and she had no idea what I was talking about… most likely because I had the instrument wrong.
This piece reminds me of what I loved so much about that first oud peice I heard. The musician is Saïd Chraïbi, a Moroccan oud player who recently passed. I’m in love with his musicianship and composition style.
