Popis - SUFI WORD: KDGHZ2SA:
'KDGhZ2SA, a Six-Letter Sufi Word' for ensemble and orchestra
performed by Ensemble Ictus & Orchestre National de Lille
conducted by Peter Rundel. "Since 2000, I have been spending much time writing Sufi Letters, despite the fact that I am not a Sufi, or even Muslim, and I do not speak Arabic. They are based on a Sufi chart connecting a vast system of symbolic interrelations to the 28 letters in the Arabic alphabet - a sort of methodical summary of metaphorical and mystical thinking, as it has been drawn once by Sheikh Abul-Muwwayid of Gujarat (India) for incantations. So Sufi Letters is a common work process, not a cycle in the classical sense of the word. The pieces are written for different instrumentations, according to the needs of the selected letter and the vagaries of life, and the global project is not a priori unified. Each letter is both unique - and so could be performed on its own - and deeply connected to all the other letters - and as such designed to be combined and form words. Meanwhile, I am moving and changing, possibly maturing, certainly ageing, and so this project also comes as a tale of initiation, to music and things. It took me ten years to write the first 13 letters and it is safe to say that I will probably need that much time to write the other 15, Inch Allah". ~J.L. Fafchamps.
