This music is played with pure (just) 3rd and 6th intervals - Completely different from the usual equal temperament with detuned thirds.
The pure intervals are based on the natural overtones.
The proportion of overtones exists since the beginning of our universe, long before the humankind appears.
The pure intervals work positively for our mental health.
And also for our cats - they often approach the speaker...
Please enjoy the well-balanced harmonies!

- Oud & Lute - King of Instruments -
The origin of the oud belongs to the ancient times and similar instruments were used by the Babylonian and ancient Egyptian. Until today, oud is played as the "king of instruments" in Arabic culture.
The oud found his way to Europe in medieval times and it became "lute". During the Renaissance the lute was also regarded as the "king of instruments".

This music is played with pure (just) 3rd and 6th intervals combined with maqams Hijaz and Kurd. So the 2nd degree (B-flat) is slightly higher than pure intervals. Please enjoy the atmosphere with oud sound.!

[@adamedmour9704]

Do the maqams traditionally have impure thirds? I've heard that maqam intonations vary from country to country like a national accent.

[@christinelwilliams51]

Hello from SF Bay area California 🎉 what is the name of your string instrument and what is the country of music origin?😊

[@NaoSogabe]

@@christinelwilliams51 You can find the answers in my welcome video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d2SypJiVoph9iq8

[@NaoSogabe]

@@adamedmour9704 Pure third etc. is the matter of European music history. Maqam consists of a completely different theory and in maqam we should not discuss whether an inverval is pure or not. And as you say, the exact pitch depends on the region.

[@jorgemendez9082]

I am enjoying it, thank you.

[@RPG_Horror]

As a spanish guitar player, listening to the Oud is like listening to an ancestor that has far far more knowledge then I. Beautiful playing!

[@NaoSogabe]

Thank you so much!

[@antennawilde]

I am reminded of spanish music as well. Small world

[@Stargazzer811]

Interestingly enough I am reminded more of near eastern music than Spanish, but given the Moorish presence in Spain for quite some time, it wouldn't surprise me to learn that there was some influence there on what we now consider traditional Spanish guitar.

[@sinosventolera]

@@Stargazzer811 Traditional Spanish guitar is VERY influenced by the Moorish presence in Spain, I would even go as far as saying that it's essential

[@eliassaab1850]

Oud was a greek instrument adopted by the turks then arabs

Silk and leather is the only appropriate way to play the Sitar But without a hole or electrical component, how does the device hit the mic so well?

[@NaoSogabe]

@@virtualenvironmentfellowsh6671 As you see in the title, this instrument is called oud - not sitar! I set two condenser microphones at a large distance, about 80 cm. You can often see this setting by recordings of the classical instruments like violin or cello. In my following video, you can see their positions: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWXcnnqBoNFjeZI

This is excellent. Seriously good stuff. I have it on loop. It's my life soundtrack right now. In a world with so much negative energy, this kind of music helps me to go at the perfect pace., Not too fast..Not too slow. But in the present moment and the things outside of this moment are not as heavy. My soul resonates with this frequency and I am very grateful Thank you!! Shalom🙏

[@NaoSogabe]

Thank you so much for listening to my music! If you let my music on loop, please note the following: About 6 weeks ago, the number of subscribers to my channel has exploded. Several users had my music on continuous loop. I was very grateful for that. Unfortunately, the KZbin algorithm saw it differently - A permanent playback of a certain video was interpreted as a manipulation to increase advertising sales. As a measure for this, they reduced the ads of the videos. I received less revenue from KZbin as a result. I will, of course, be happy if you continue to run my music. But please change the titles, use the video streaming from my official site or download my music as MP3. So we can avoid the "misunderstanding" with the algorithm. www.youtube.com/@NaoSogabe/community

@@NaoSogabe I'm so sorry. I actually thought I responded to this months ago.. First of all, I am so excited and humbled by the fact that you even read and responded to my comment at all.. But I wanted to tell you that I did read your response. And that I'm not looping the videos anymore. I didn't realize how much effect it made. So glad you told me.
