John Bilezikjian plays his adaptation of Isaac Albéniz's "Asturias (Leyenda)" for oud, which he played with the Boston Pops Orchestra in 2005.
John calls the task of adapting the guitar version to oud "impossible" because the guitar version requires four fingers playing the strings, whereas the oud is traditionally played with a single eagle quill.
Apologies for the poor lighting! The light at the venue was really terrible. Good thing you don't need to see well to appreciate John's beautiful music!
