Dear Bordokan, Many thanks for bringing the Arab oud to Brazilian people. Mr Bordokan, I have a question for you... Do you know anything about the oud maker Abdo Nahat who came from Syria and lived in Sao Paulo.. He continued making his ouds in Brazil... Many thanks for your help. I look forward to hearing from you. Kind regards and a happy new year. Adel

I would be most grateful for any information about your oud and any others made by the Nahat family. I have received an emaiol from a Guilherme Nahat, a grandson of George Abdo Nahat, he says is 97. The family moved from Damascus sometime between 1950 - 1970, and apparently continued to build ouds until 1983, the last one known. Pictures, especially of the label are most helpful. Thank you. Warmest Regards, Richard richard@droud.com http://www.droud.com/nahats.htm
