SILKROAD | Palestinian Lullabies - Silkroad Ensemble
A musical offering from the Silkroad Ensemble.
These lullabies belong to Palestinian and Levantine Arab folk repertoire, traditionally transmitted orally for generations in the whole region of the Arab Levant.
The first lullaby is a free form, where the singer follows a simple melodic contour and instrumentalists improvise variations and melismas around the poetry.
The second lullaby is a more structured song that still invites freedom of interpretation and variation from its performers.
Lullaby 1 - Khet el Sobeh - Thread of the morning
His eyes are full of sleep
O thread of the morning
O separator between him and I
His eyes are full of sleep
If only morning did not start appearing
His eyes are full of sleep
Lullaby 2 - Wa'ouyouneha - Her Eyes
My bird, you'd say that her eyes are like cups
Cups full of coffee
Your beautiful, black eyes
Your beautiful, black eyes
Oh your eyes

SILKROAD | "Home Within" Trailer
Переглядів 4,1 тис.3 роки тому
"Home Within" is an emotional accounting of home in a time of conflict. An audio-visual performance conceived by Syrian composer and clarinetist Kinan Azmeh and Syrian Armenian visual artist Kevork Mourad, the result is an impressionistic reflection on the unity of loss, longing, and the impact of tragedy on our sense of "home." Rather than follow a narrative, the artists document "home" within...

    Those of us who were alive then will not forget the day Yo Yo Ma left that cello in the trunk of a New York cab. The entire police department and the Mayor's office were hunting for one yellow cab among 30,000 (years ago - no central dispatch). They found the driver when he ended his shift, and the cello was peaceful and comfortable still in his trunk. Treasure that cello - it gave half the world a minor heart attack once. Treasure the cellist too - world's best of his time.
