The oud was always something mysterious for me.

My dreams was always to compose a concerto for oud, because the oud – in the Arabic culture – was used as an instrument to accompany singers. It’s not really used as a solo instrument. I wanted to bring the oud in a different way. It’s now at the centre of the orchestra and performs a solo part.

Wanes’s grandfather, whom he never met, made ouds – and Wanes has even been able to find and purchase two of his grandfather’s instruments since moving to North America.

The oud is a Middle Eastern instrument with a short neck (fingerboard) that looks like a lute. it typically has 11 strings grouped into six courses, although it could have anywhere from 10-13 strings grouped into 5-7 courses. You can learn about the oud on Wikipedia, or click on the video below to see our oud soloist, Charbel Rouhana, performing with the Oriental Orchestra of the Lebanese Conservatory.
