Here are some transcriptions I have made of Anouar Brahem's music. Brahem is well-known as one of the foremost Arabic jazz oud players and composers. His work (especially his more recent recordings) tend to be meditative in tone, but he can still surprise with fiery intensity on occasion.
Note: These transcriptions are my own work, which I am providing for educational purposes only. If anyone objects to their inclusion, please notify me and they will be removed immediately.

Brian,
I commend your efforts here. This is a great site. I study long-neck baglama and Turkish halk music here in Brooklyn with a great Kurdish musician.
I also listen to a lot of Arabic and Al-Andalusian oud. (Said Chraibi and Munir Bachir are particular favorites).
I would be most appreciative if you could post a transcription of the solo version of the title track to Astrakhan Cafe. I think this beautiful composition would be great on saz.
Thanks,
Edward
Thanks, Edward. I have a transcription of Astrakan Cafe I did a long time ago . . . it's around here somewhere. I'll post it when I get a chance.
Hey Edward! It took a while, but I finally updated and cleaned up my transcription of Astrakan Cafe. The post is here
thank you so much for these transcriptions, I just got an oud for my 20th birthday and these charts are great to get a feel for it! keep on posting ;D
If anybody has or knows where to find (or buy) piano sheets for Anouar Brahems album Le Pas Du Chat Noir please get in touch!

Hi Brian,
Thanks a lot for sharing, it is great.
Playing (bass) clarinet, it would be very nice if you could transpose in Bb with your software and share again.
Either on this site, or by email (marchauchecorne@gmail.com)
Thanks again, and all the best for 2015!
