Fragments
of unknown music
This
concert examines some solo piano tracks which
were written by Arabian musicians, most of
them from North Africa, around the
first decades of the 1900s. Some
of these compositions have been examined and
compared with the solo piano music of
some contemporary jazz musicians whose form
and approach to music is, in a certain
way, linked to Arabian music. It includes a
new elaboration of some George Ivanovitch
Gurdjieff tracks as well. What makes this work
special is its desire to approach spirituality, its
essence, its inner
force, that is to say the soul of Arabian
music.
