Can it be? An all new full length CD by the one and only Tom Moran? Yes! Years in the making, Oud Music is exactly what the title states it is, and lets listeners in on the not-so-secret world of oud music that Mr. Moran has been inhabiting for quite a few years now. One of the most adept stringed-instrument players around, he has more than mastered oud playing; an accomplished luthier, he also designs and builds ouds, for himself and others. He has, in fact, become the go-to-guy for local and touring belly-dancers in and travelling to Pittsburgh from the world over, an example of which can be found here.
