long-necked saz http://www.alansondheim.org/longneckedsaz2.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/longsaz.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/longneckedsazlabel.jpg the long-necked saz is just that, a very long neck and deeper, more resonant tones. this one is from 1961, repaired by Amir Vahab, a brilliant musician/teacher in New York. in the pictures the saz is in the pre-repair state, with the wrong pegs and wrong setup. i recorded using two sitar picks on my right-hand; my nails are brittle at this point and the picks give their own tonalities to the instrument. this is an improvised solo with the sound-hole opened to emphasize the lower tones. while difficult to play, the results are worth it, the deep quality of the tones resonate amazingly with the music. i recorded this late at night on an H4n Zoom, the music itself determining the length of the piece. ------ ahmet tekeli 1961 9-string baglama saz--cura cumbus viola pipa sondheim, violin, eight-string Ahmet Tekeli miked with six strings Sondheim, irqsaz irqsched irqschedrtf irqspace irqthree irqtoo thatsarangi, oud, !n dze m!dzt ov pure and muffled in america "WYte sazdisappear the radioactivity tenor banjo, yayli tanbur, for examples), (long-necked saz) among you, hasapi... ,hegelung, rababa ,electric ,valveless harmonica suroz electronics baritone horn mute suroz, dan moi* ME ME, ...saz 000 1601 1602 1940 1941 1942 1minutesaz 3 371 373 374 41 1=electric guitar.2=electric saz. 44forDydo 44forFahey 5minutesaz ASC ASCflesh AlanAzureMykJazzCafe Dev01: half-way harmonica, pipa, = safewords Sagdish samadhi satori sawgrass qinqin, madal, elec. guitar, qin, alto clarinet, cura, cumbus, erhu, guitar ouds, tro, moi, kouqin, And Azure Carter, song voice, Maya Maya, Azure's songs, early Antarctic Azure, voice; Myk, lap steel; Alan, oud.
