絃樂器(Stringed Instruments)

就我們所知，沒有吉他，就沒有搖滾樂，但如果沒有烏德琴 (oud)，會有吉他的存在嗎？烏德琴是一種外形很像吉他的阿拉伯樂器 (您可以參見照片內的圖示) 。烏德琴被帶到西班牙後，最後成了魯特琴 (lute) ，而魯特琴則是吉他的前身。時至今日，阿拉伯國家仍會演奏烏德琴。下面這段錄於1939年加州的錄音，演奏樂器是烏德琴；它聽起來是不是很像吉他呀？

Rock and roll music, as we know it, wouldn't exist without the guitar, but would it have existed without the oud? The oud is an Arabic instrument that, as you can see from the picture, looks a lot like a round guitar. The oud was brought to Spain and eventually turned into the lute. The lute is the instrument that evolved into the guitar. Today the oud is still played in Arab countries. Listen to the recording of the oud made in California in 1939. Does it sound like a guitar?
