Take a listen to this. Oud player Ahmed Alshaiba gives a Middle Eastern spin to a beloved soundtrack classic:

It's so fascinating to hear the effect when taking music of one cultural type and transforming it into music of another. This reminds me of what Loreena McKennitt did to God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen. Just lovely.
Enjoy!
