	UD - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nissan Diesel Motor Co., Ltd. or UD (The company's trademark) is a Japanese company whose principal business is the manufacture and sales of diesel engines, light, medium and heavy duty diesel trucks, buses, bus chassis and special-purpose vehicles.
		The UD and Nissan Diesel is an international trademark for Nissan diesel trucks.
		In 1955 the UD name was born, when Minsei Diesel Industries introduced a range uniflow-scavenging 2-cycle diesel engines.

	Ud
		The ud consists of five fundemental components: the body, the soundboard (belly, chest or face), the neck (fingerboard), the pegbox and the strings, where the body is made first in the construction process.
		A kind of contemporary ud is the one with the ‘long fingerboard’, for which the first application is due to the ud virtuoso Þerif Muhittin Targan, who is inspired by one of the three instruments he played, the violoncello.
		Ud should be kept in a wardrobe not closed to daylight, and should be put in a position such that the soundboard is on the shelf.

	The Oud
		As the sanj is described as a wanj, the buq as a qarn, the duff as a tar, the 'ud becomes a synonym of the barbat.
		The 'ud consists of a large soundbox connected to a short neck, features that give it its letters patent of nobility and distinguish it from the long-necked lute family (tanbur, saz, baglama, setar etc).
		Although the four-course 'ud survives in Morocco, as the 'ud 'arbi, the tuning does not conform to the pitches inferred from classical treatises: a conflict between oral and written traditions.

	ud oud, Issa Boulos
		The 'ud, also spelled oud, is a direct descendent of instruments depicted in the wall paintings and carvings of Egyptian, Assyrian, Sumerian and far east civilizations.
		Modern 'uds are fretless and are not completely standardized in size or number of strings; five courses of string-pairs are common, six and seven pairs are also found.
		The 'ud is known in Turkey as the lauta and in the Balkans as the oud or uti.

	Ataman Hotel - The Lute Ud
		Ud plectrums are 0.5-1.5 mm thick, 3-15 mm wide, and 4-20 cm long, and are available in a wide range of hardness, flexibility, tip shape and colour to suit everyone.
		In the fasıl (vocal and instrumental suite in a single mode) it is the ud which sets the rhythm with the beats of the plectrum, and comes to the fore in bass areas of the melody.
		The ud is one of the simplest Turkish instruments to play and one of the least problematical, which means that today as in the past it is widely used.

	Oud (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		The ud originated in ancient Persia, and is now played throughout the Arab world, where it is considered as the greatest of instruments.
		The ud is the parent instrument to the European lute, and Chinese pipa.
		To string the ud, the lowest string goes to the peg closest to the body of the instrument and facing the ceiling as the instrument is held with the neck on the left.

	Oud - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The words 'lute' and 'oud' may have derived from Arabic العود al‘ud, "the wood", though recent research by Eckhard Neubauer suggests that ‘ud may simply be an Arabized version of the Persian name rud, which meant string, stringed instrument, or lute.
		Gianfranco Lotti suggests that the "wood" appellation originally carried derogatory connotations, because of proscriptions of all instrumental music in early Islam.
		Turkish-Style ouds ("ud") (Includes instruments found in Armenia and Greece): Slightly smaller in size, slightly shorter neck, higher in pitch, brighter timbre.

	'Ud
		The 'ud is a short-necked lute found throughout the Middle East, believed to have origins similar to the Chinese pipa.
		The basic design of the 'ud was developed by the 8th century A.D. Brought by the Arabs to Spain, the instrument gave both its name (al ud: laud: lute) and form to the European lute.
		Thanks to its warm timbre, low tessatura, and microtonal flexibility, the 'ud is known as amîr al-tarab or "the prince of enchantment." Today the 'ud is the favored tool of composers and theorists, and a basic member of the traditional ensemble.

		Although the spelling Oud is the most widespread, I prefer the spelling Ud, because in the countries were it is traditionally played the spelling Ud is more common, also because I like the short word, and also because in Dutch the word "oud" (pronounced as "aud") means "old".
		Note that the Encyclopedia Britannica uses the spelling 'ud, whereas in the Library of Congress Classification the spelling oud is preferred.

		The ud (or oud) is one of the most important instruments in Arabic and Islamic musical communities.
		You hold the ud almost as you would hold a guitar, but the face of the instrument should be held at right angles to the ground (not visible to the player).
		The large, vaulted soundbox of the ud is usually pear shaped, and is constructed from strips of light, flexible wood which are attached to a relatively short neck.

		When, in singing Henry Purcell's "Music for A While," UD raised her stentorian voice at the piano, her dog immediately ran to the other end of the house.
		It was as if coaches had instructed the men to look stentorian or presidential or some such thing, thus prompting them to strike poses that seemed faintly silly and wholly unnatural.
		The behavior, as UD has said more than once here, is endemic in academia and in research institutes (Walsh, like a lot of NIH scientists, is also an academic).

		ud will try to be nice about error conditions, and in most cases prints a warm and fuzzy error message when it encounters a problem.
		Sometimes the error will be unexpected, and in these cases, ud uses the ldap_per- ror() routine to print an informative diagnostic.

	Al 'Ud -- The Oud
		The 'ud is the ancestor of the European lute ("al 'ud" became "lute"), and ultimately of the guitar as well.
		Unlike the lute and guitar, however, the 'ud has no frets; this enables the musician to play the quarter-tones (in between the half-steps of a 12-note chromatic scale) necessary for most Arabic and Turkish music.
		The 'ud photo on this page is of one built by Viken Najarian and belongs to him.
