Some more on the tambouras/saz in Cyprus:
- Two recordings, from 1973, of Turkish Cypriots playing saz.
One is called Karacaoğlan, and is an ashik song (see also another version from Turkey here)
The other, from the same album, is called Cicek Dagi
- A recording of 'I vrisi ton Pegiotisson' with Christos Konstantinou on saz
- The Solomou family sing (I think on playback) a Maronite φωνή accompanied by electric saz, amongst Christmas decorations
- An article on the confusion behind the use of 'tambouras' (an instrument that has been more or less extinct since the second world war) in current Greek musical education.
