Yahaiouniis a word that comes from the Arabic language and means the light that shines in the eyes. This capriccio-shaped piece is a free interpretation of the musical style of the compas moro, literally translated Moorish rhythm. Traditional instruments like rabab or ney are imitated with a very peculiar scordatura.

L'argile, la forme, le ravin du monde (Argil, shape, the world’s ravine), can be read Le matériau, la forme, le Tao (Material, shape, Tao). There are but four ingredients: my fetish tone row, a very long melody, a touch of folklore and some small sparks.

This composition for solo violin was written in 1987 for the violinist Roger Zahab who performed the world premiere in New York. As is typical of Ursula Mamlok, the work of about 5 minutes' duration is very short. In one movement, divided into five short sections, she sums up her musical cause in an extremely virtuoso manner: A powerful opening theme, which varies several times, is followed by a quiet, lyrical passage which uses similar musical ideas, however. In the following, the formal contrast disappears due to the increasing fusion of opening theme and slower episode before the main theme is taken up again in the final section in a very dramatic form.
