This rich musical tapestry weaves together mystical strands of music and poetry as it moves seamlessly from the aeolian sound of European choral music to Andalusian modes to Middle Eastern scales. Here we hear the voice of each tradition clearly articulated as in an intricate conversation with one another. Layer upon layer of melodies and rhythms serve to clarify the composer’s vision and to lead the listener inward to a place of knowing beyond words. Lyrics are drawn from mystical poets: Kaygusuz Abdal (Turkish lyrics), Hildegard von Bingen (Latin lyrics), Mansur ibn al-Hallaj and Abu al-Hasan al-Shushtari (Arabic lyrics). Performed by Cappella Amsterdam, The Amsterdam Andalusian Orchestra, and Sami Yusuf’s ensemble.
