Concerto of the Greater Sea is a studio album by Australian, multi-instrumentalist and oud virtuoso Joseph Tawadros. The album was self-released in February 2012.
At the ARIA Music Awards of 2012, the album won the ARIA Award for Best World Music Album.[3]
The Australian said "The dynamic tonal range of Joseph Tawadros's oud, his dazzling technique and articulation are equally evident in both slow and fast sections. The ingenuity of brother James's work on req (Egyptian tambourine) peaks in 'The Procession'. Elsewhere, bendir (frame drum) provides propulsion. Oud, percussion and orchestra set a scorching tempo in Oasis."[4]
