cd cover Udi Hrant
Udi Hrant (Traditional Crossroads)
$15.99

In the tradition of the ud, there is no one quite like Udi Hrant. His style was personal, impeccable and passionate, his power on the instrument was remarkable, and these 1950 recordings show all of this beautifully. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

The record label says:
For anyone who has picked up an ud, the name Hrant Kenkulian remains alone, a legend akin to that of Segovia or Horowitz. As an innovator of modern ud technique and interpreter of the eastern modal system, his contribution has influenced virtually every living udist. Born in the last stages of the Ottoman Empire, the blind Armenian musician is considered one of the greatest masters of the 12-stringed, fretless lute. Previously unissued, these tapes were recently discovered, having been recorded in New York during his tour to the United States in 1950.

Please note!
Most CDs have been imported from Europe or Asia. They are not all shrink-wrapped, and I am not going to con you by wrapping them here just to make you think they have been sterilized in America. We guarantee that the CDs and the contents are all brand new and in perfect condition. Whenever I can, I use recycled shipping materials. They may not look as pretty on the outside, but they save money and keep the trash dumps a little bit emptier.
