[alexandrosl666]

is that a banjo or some kind of traditional instrument ?

[ziv2]

lovely!!

tnx!!

[athosyiannis]

This guy is an amazing player! Bravo

[progresiverocklover]

what is this banjo look-alike instrument Dinkjian plays on?

[ankerwicklung]

@progresiverocklover called Cümbüs on Turkish, similar to Bouzouki on Greek



[progresiverocklover]

@ankerwicklung my music teacher told that it's actualley dome kind of a special oud (after all thats ara's specialty) if you count the strings from the head of the instrument it makes sense.

[acharad]

@progresiverocklover An oud- Cümbüš that - a fretless kind of Cümbüš

[SecretHye00]

@progresiverocklover The number of strings seen on the peg indicates it's an instrument called the Oud which Dinkjian is known to play. This seems to be a more acoustically suited version for the concert venue.

[grkbouzoukiplayer]

@SecretHye00 its not an oud its actually a poor man oud its a cheaper version called the cumbus.

[TheOudist]

@SecretHye00 This is not an Oud , it is a Cümbüs. The number of strings on a Oud is usually 11- 5 double courses and 1 single bass-string. The Cümbüs Ara plays here can be strubg with 12 strings in 6 doublecourses, but Ara plays it with 6 single strings. BTW, on a Cümbüs the neck can be changed very easy.There are frettet necks like Banjo or Baglama availiable.

[ohannes70]

@SecretHye00 He is not playing an oud, he is playing a Cumbus. A more modern insturment invented in Turkey. It is similar to a banjo, has a plastik face and metal strings, but it is fretless, so he can play the quarter notes.. it is also double string like the 12 string guitars....

[yildizve]

@SecretHye00 It's called a cümbüş.

[ThePlanetGreece]

[civan47]

Original Song is Armenian.

[noalevin]

Inspiring, touching music! 

[martifingers]

Amazing stuff. I know nothing of the genesdis of this music but ears and my heart tell me it is something special...

[TheAlerna]

Amazing! As simple as that...

[aerdol]

I most like the version of played with "UD" of this song, by Ara Dinkjian.

[GREGUA1000]

@people of ar I know my friend this song IS ARMENIAN i was sarcastic to that seljuk those mongols think that the whole world revolves around them they not capable to write beautiful music like this

[Greekbouzouki35]

This song is original armenian song,and eleftheria arvanitaki singit in Greek...but the original is armenian,not türkish!!

[PeopleOfAr]

@GREGUA1000 no it's not Turkish even if you google Sezen Aksu 88 you will read "Sarışın, Music by Ara Dinkjian"!!

[Samettr]

türkey musıc sezen aksu gel gel sarışınım.

[constantino280]

amazing dinata

[Tarikatlar]

Great Ara! You are a master of the oud, no doubt!

[kentavr903]

Long live our Armenians in the World !!!

[SurpSargis]

THIS IS A GREEK SONG COMPOSED BY AN ARMENIEN, NOT TURKISH, WTF

[ilishim]

@SurpSargis this song is placed in an album of a Turkish singer Sezen Aksu in 1988. When did the Greeks used this song ? It is a nice Armenian song and sure to me, it is gorgeous with Turkish lyrics ;)

cheers.

[akrivosdiavolos73]

@ilishim ..Im sorry who is Sezen?? Has anyone ever heard of her? Why does everyone recognize Arvanitaki immediately?

[ilishim]

@akrivosdiavolos73 here everyone means your Greek friends, isn't it ? Just check out Ara's website to see her.

[ilishim]

@akrivosdiavolos73 you know math right. 2011-20 = 1991

Sezen put the song to her album in 1988, so she is the first, right. Tell me who is ignorant ??

[cerkezz1]

apo pote egine elliniko to sigkekrimeno komati??? epidi to tragoudise i arbanitaki??

[cerkezz1]

yea is turkish but the MUSIC IS FOR ALL PEOPLE

[SurpSargis]

@cerkezz1 its not turkish its greek

[poppymu]

@SurpSargis it's armenian music.

[YesIam49]

Are they from Turkey!!! I think this music is not armenian, is it Turkish?

[Tarikatlar]

@YesIam49 allah allah,turks do not have much too claim as their own, but let us live in peace, wherever we are. We all stole,borrowed and so on from eachother, so there really is not a pure turkish tune except for ceddin dede, and other crap. Ataturk is SHIRK, ataturk was a masonic jew. Turks was Ottoman, not todays anatolia. Peace from a non-armenian.

[SurpSargis]

amazing

[supersako69]

Love the music, I was turned on to the music of the Dinkjians from family in New Jersey, God bless greeting from Glendale Ca

[BloodySultan]

master musician

[123mystro456]

araa my fend

[Billeteria]

It is gibberish but I think he is mimicking the Armenian intonation and then blends it with the beat, I guess the philosophy is that since each tribes rhythm and percussion is derived from the traditions of the people. It's a symbolic gesture.

[balabekmalabek]

These guys are maestros. it is JAZZ, real jazz

[dwahy1]

is non turk music. When armenian fidayis go fight with turk barbars, they singing ,, iren ergu dxin Ave, Hajoyin arav ur xmbi mech mtav gotemart ....This song has armenian 95 Year history. Isn´t doubtful turk RRAAABBIIZ.

[davsannili]

I grow up with this song in Turkey. "Gel gel sarisinim gel" by Sezen Aksu. I love it...

[stipomeraklija]

[Grieken33]

you have a greek version this version and they have a turkish version.

what is the turkish version?

[nabmfever]

@Grieken33 its the ''Gel sarisinim gel'' by Sezen Aksu

[BloodySultan]

@nabmfever

Dinata is a song from the album Meno Ektos ("I'll keep outside"), composed by Ara Dinkjian and sungd by Eleftheria Arvanitaki. It mixes the influence of Balkan music with electronics. That song, among the others on Meno Ektos, made Arvanitaki a singer out of Greece. The English words dynamo and dynamic come from the same root. She also performed the song at the closing ceremony of the 2004 Athens Olympics, during the fireworks and after the flame was extinguished.

[nabmfever]

@BloodySultan yeah i knew that, i was talking about the turkish version though!

[BloodySultan]

@nabmfever

well the Turkish version sucks.

[nabmfever]

@BloodySultan whyy not? sounds good for dancing :P prefer Dynata Dynata though cuz im greek! no offense!

[omerg1993]

so beautiful :)

[part1sts]

GreekMusic: It is almost impossible to translate what the drummer is saying because it is an ancient dialect of Armenian only used by high priests for chanting prayers.

[VANArmenya]

No. Arto is just talking "nonsense." He is known to make strange noises like that. it is a non-language. It is NOT Armenian!

[part1sts]

@VANArmenya

And in a way, it is.

[VANArmenya]

@part1sts I agree. Non-verbal, "spontaneous" language based on his barin :) I love him

[ready2cook]

@part1sts

LOL

[Ofanoan]

[StouGr]

thank you

[SurpSargis]

hahahha turkish? its armenian, read instead of playing games

[MartinKrauen]

I read it from wikipedia it says turkish

[leonis53]

Who says Wiki is always correct, authoritative, or checked by anybody.

May I suggest you also use a second opinion.

Someone published a fake obituary of a famous poet a few weeks ago. Many newspapers printed it and had to retract it. So, there goes wiki.

[kanibal0311]

Amazing performance! Beautiful and inspiring music.

[davsannili]

Super sarki. Cocuklugumdan beri bilirim bu sarkiyi. Ara Dinkjiyan'dan ilk dinleyisim. Cok guzel caldin Ara... Turkiye'de konser verirsen ins. haberim olur.

[rainson62]

bizim cümbüş "cumbus" gel gel sarışımın dinata dinata da ermeni folku olmuş. olsun, hepimiz anadoluyuz. hepimiz aynı kadının emzirdiği farklı dilleri konuşan aynı çocuklarız.

[dealornotdeal]

ha ha ha rainson kardes iyi guzel soylemissin sonunda da basta micmissin affedersin yani...sizin gel gel sarisininiz Ara Dinkjianin kendi bestesi yani kardesim bizim gel gel sarisinimiz sizin yani Sezen (kralicemiz ..soz yok ) in sarkisi oldu senin anliyacagin..saygilar kardesim..!!

[rainson62]

dediğinden, türkçenden bir şey anlamadım. ayrıca ara'ya kötü bir şey de söylemedim. şarkı kimin, hangi milletin olursa olsun, anadolulur, hangi dilde , hangi aletle çalınırsa çalınsın güzelliğini eksiltlmiyor. bir müzisyen olarak çümbüş'ün fars aleti olduğunu biliyorum.

[kedime]

Selamlar. Cümbüş fars aleti değildir. 1930 yılında Zeynel Abidin Cümbüş tarafından yapılmış ve patenti alınmıştır. Hatta çalgının üzerinde "mucidi zeynel abidin cümbüş" yazar.

[MartinKrauen]

evet dogru soyluyorsun kemence ve kanun fars calgisi.cumbus orjinal turk

[louzarr]

What's he playing? It looks like some kind of banjo.

[Ariontheband]

Its called a Cumbus. Cant give much more info though. Fantastic sound!

[entona]

I M P R E S I O N A N T E !..... qué manera de interpretar....

[Dat34my]

Dinata Dinata and Gel Gel are both great songs. But I prefer the Greek version by Antique. I think it rocks ;-)

Turks and Greeks, live in peace! WE ARE EUROPE ( I think Turkey will soon be able to join the EU )!
