English. A
genre-defying collection
of songs for female vocal
trio, Songspin Songbook
is a collaboration
between Juice Vocal
Ensemble and UYMP, funded
by an Arts Council
England grant. Described
as “the 21st
century’s answer to
the Swingles or
King’s
Singers” (The
Times), Juice have
emerged as the face of a
revitalised experimental
scene for vocal music.
Songspin Songbook
publishes songs from
their debut album,
Songspin. The album was
released on Nonclassical
in 2011 to critical
acclaim, winning an
international Independent
Music Award for Best
Contemporary Classical
Album in 2012. Featuring
remixes by the likes of
Camille producer MaJiker
and
Björkcollaborator
Mikhail Karikis, the
album was reviewed by The
Observer as
“eighteen
immaculately achieved
tracks, spanning
Elisabeth Lutyens to
Gabriel Prokofiev via
folk song and avant
garde, enchant and
enthrall”. Songspin
also featured the
premiere recording of
Elisabeth Lutyens' Of The
Snow, which The Telegraph
described of a
performance by Juice as
an amazing sustained
piece of virtuosity.
Songspin Songbook

Whittle and Paul Sild.

Composed: 2006 Also
published as part of
UYMP's Songspin Songbook,
ISMN M 57036 603 3. Human
Drum was a collaboration
with the Juice Vocal
Ensemble. The piece began
in the recording studio
where I recorded Juice
singing notated fragments
I’d popped together and
also their own
improvisations. I then
edited and cut up all the
audio into very tiny
fragments in a myriad of
ways to make a short
rhythm-based electronic 3
part vocal piece. This
forms part of my larger
work Voices of the Asylum
for voices, human
beatbox, electronics,
fashion and space. The
final track bares very
little resemblance to
theoriginal recording
studio session. Several
weeks after I had
finished Human Drum Juice
asked me to transcribe
the audio so they could
sing the piece live
(which wasn’t easy to
do after all the cutting
and processing!),
therefore coming full
circle! There are now two
versions of Human Drum ,
the studio electronic
track and the ‘live’
notated version. Human
Drum is dedicated to the
Juice Vocal Ensemble with
affection. First
performed by Juice Vocal

ch. The hymn Nun
ruhen alle Walder (Now
All Forests Rest),
arranged by J.S. Bach
(No. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, from
Cantata BWV 13), is a
guiding light throughout
this four-movement
composition. Pütz
wrote this work as a
musical outcry against
the wilful, profit-driven
destruction of our
environment. When Bach
used the word ruhen (to
rest) over 350 years ago,
it probably had a
different nuance from the
meaning it has today. At
the beginning of the 21st
century - the so-called
age of progress - nun
ruhen alle Walder should
mean now all forests die
. Massive
industrialization and
globalization, coupled
with pure greed,
corruption, political
scandals, an
ever-wideninggap between
the rich and poor, and
other such senseless
human actions, are
pushing our blue planet
closer and closer to the
point of no return. This
work is not intended to
be a ranting accusation.
It should remind us of
the beauty and harmony
that can exist all around
us in nature, if we take
care of it. Pütz
hopes that this will, one
day, help put a greater
emphasis on humanity's
survival, and coexistence
with nature rather than
the exploitation
described earlier. All
four texts were created
by Australian poet Graeme
King, whose works were
discovered by Pütz,
by chance on the
internet. Pütz was
especially captivated by
King's clarity, and
intrigued by the
possibilities of adapting
and melding the strong
rhythmical structure of
King's writing with his
own musical language. The
four movements are as
follows: 1. Tears of
Nature 2. Grrrevolution
3. Stand up! 4. Tomorrow
The world premiere of
Four Earth Songs took
place on 7 July 2009 at
the 14th WASBE-Conference
in Cincinnati (USA). This
work is dedicated in
friendship to Jouke
Hoekstra, conductor, and
the Frysk Fanfare Orkest
(the Frisian
Fanfare-Orchestra).
De hymne Nun
ruhen alle Walder,
gearrangeerd door J.S.
Bach (nr. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, uit cantate
BWV 13), is de leidraad
in deze vierdelige
compositie. Putz schreef
het werk als een muzikaal
protest tegen de
moedwillige,op winstbejag
gebaseerde vernietiging
van ons milieu. Toen Bach
het woord 'ruhen'
(rusten) meer dan 350
jaar geleden gebruikte,
lag er waarschijnlijk een
andere nuance in dan
tegenwoordig. Aan het
begin van de 21e eeuw -
dezogenaamde eeuw van de
vooruitgang - zou 'nun
ruhen alle Walder' zelfs
kunnen betekenen: 'nu
sterven alle bossen'. De
grootschalige
industrialisatie en
globalisering, in
combinatie met pure
hebzucht, corruptie,
politieke schandalen,een
groeiende kloof tussen
arm en rijk, en andere
dwaze menselijke
verrichtingen, brengen
onze blauwe planeet
steeds verder in de
problemen, tot er
misschien geen weg terug
meer is. Dit werk is niet
bedoeld als een
beschuldigendetirade. Het
moet ons wijzen op de
schoonheid en harmonie
die in de natuur om ons
heen kan bestaan, als we
er goed voor zorgen. Putz
hoopt dat er op een dag
meer nadruk gelegd zal
worden op het overleven
van de mensheid
invreedzame co-existentie
met de natuur, zonder de
eerdergenoemde
uitbuiting. Alle vier de
teksten zijn geschreven
door de Australische
dichter Graeme King,
wiens werk Putz bij
toeval tegenkwam op het
internet. Hij werd
getroffendoor Kings
helderheid en raakte
geintrigeerd door de
mogelijkheid de sterke
ritmische structuur van
Kings teksten om te
zetten in zijn eigen
muzikale taal. De vier
delen zijn de volgende:

Der
Choral Nun ruhen alle
Walder, hier in einer
Bearbeitung von J.S. Bach
(Nr. 6 So sei nun, Seele,
deine aus der Kantate BWV
13), zieht sich wie ein
roter Faden durch diese
viersatzige Komposition,
die als musikalischer
Aufschrei (Anfang!) gegen
die mutwillige,
profitgesteuerte
Zerstorung unserer Umwelt
gedacht ist. Sicher hatte
das Wort ruhen vor
über 350 Jahren,
als der Liedtext
entstand, eine andere
Bedeutung als heute. Zu
Beginn des 21.
Jahrhunderts, im
sogenannten Zeitalter des
Fortschritts,
müsste es leider
wohl eher heissen: Nun
sterben alle Walder...
Massive
Industrialisierung,
Globalisierung, aber auch
Profitgier, Korruption,
politische
Unfahigkeit,krasse
Unterschiede zwischen arm
und reich, und
schlussendlich die
Uneinsichtigkeit des
einzelnen Menschen haben
dazu geführt, dass
der Blaue Planet heute
kurz vor dem Kollaps
steht. Dieses Werk soll
jedoch nicht nur
anklagen, es soll auch
die verbliebenen
Schonheiten unserer Natur
aufzeigen, in der
Hoffnung, dass es einmal
gelingen wird, die
Rettung der Natur und den
Schutz der Umwelt
über die oben
genannten Interessen zu
stellen. Alle vier Texte
stammen aus der Feder des
australischen Dichters
Graeme King, dessen Werk
der Komponist durch einen
glücklichen Zufall
im Internet entdeckte.
Besonders inspirierend
war die Direktheit von
Graemes Aussagen, aber
auch die kraftvolle
Rhythmik seiner Verse mit
den daraus resultierenden
Moglichkeiten der
musikalischen Umsetzung.

Le
cantique Nun ruhen alle
Walder, dont la ligne
melodique fut reprise par
Jean-Sebastien Bach pour
son choral So sein nun,
Seele, deine (Choral
ndeg6 - Cantate BWV 13),
est le fil conducteur de
cette oeuvre en quatre
mouvements concue comme
un cri contre la
destruction volontaire de
la nature pour le profit.
Plus de trois siecles
nous separent du temps de
Bach. Si les mots sont
restes les memes, leur
sens primitif connait
cependant quelques
nuances. Ainsi, au XXIe
siecle - considere comme
le << siecle du progres
>>, il conviendrait de
traduire Nun ruhen alle
Walder (les forets se
reposent ) par Les forets
se meurent. La
mondialisation et
l'industrialisation
massiveassociees a
l'avidite predatrice, a
la corruption politique,
aux actions humaines
irrationnelles et au
fosse grandissant entre
riches et pauvres
conduisent notre planete
bleue a se rapprocher
chaque jour un peu plus
du point de non retour.
Cette composition n'est
pas une accusation
acerbe, mais plutot une
exhortation a prendre
soin de cette beaute si
harmonieuse que nous
offre la nature. Et
peut-etre, prendrons-nous
enfin conscience de
l'importance d'une
situation de coexistence
avec la nature,
necessaire pour la survie
de l'espece humaine, et
non d'exploitation qui
conduit a la destruction.

ruhen alle Walder,
gearrangeerd door J.S.
Bach (nr. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, uit cantate
BWV 13), is de leidraad
in deze vierdelige
compositie. Putz schreef
het werk als een muzikaal
protest tegen de
moedwillige,op winstbejag
gebaseerde vernietiging
van ons milieu. Toen Bach
het woord 'ruhen'
(rusten) meer dan 350
jaar geleden gebruikte,
lag er waarschijnlijk een
andere nuance in dan
tegenwoordig. Aan het
begin van de 21e eeuw -
dezogenaamde eeuw van de
vooruitgang - zou 'nun
ruhen alle Walder' zelfs
kunnen betekenen: 'nu
sterven alle bossen'. De
grootschalige
industrialisatie en
globalisering, in
combinatie met pure
hebzucht, corruptie,
politieke schandalen,een
groeiende kloof tussen
arm en rijk, en andere
dwaze menselijke
verrichtingen, brengen
onze blauwe planeet
steeds verder in de
problemen, tot er
misschien geen weg terug
meer is. Dit werk is niet
bedoeld als een
beschuldigendetirade. Het
moet ons wijzen op de
schoonheid en harmonie
die in de natuur om ons
heen kan bestaan, als we
er goed voor zorgen. Putz
hoopt dat er op een dag
meer nadruk gelegd zal
worden op het overleven
van de mensheid
invreedzame co-existentie
met de natuur, zonder de
eerdergenoemde
uitbuiting. Alle vier de
teksten zijn geschreven
door de Australische
dichter Graeme King,
wiens werk Putz bij
toeval tegenkwam op het
internet. Hij werd
getroffendoor Kings
helderheid en raakte
geintrigeerd door de
mogelijkheid de sterke
ritmische structuur van
Kings teksten om te
zetten in zijn eigen
muzikale taal. De vier
delen zijn de volgende:
1. Tears of Nature 2.
Grrrevolution 3.Stand up!
4. Tomorrow De
wereldpremiere van Four
Earth Songs vond plaats

Der
Choral Nun ruhen alle
Walder, hier in einer
Bearbeitung von J.S. Bach
(Nr. 6 So sei nun, Seele,
deine aus der Kantate BWV
13), zieht sich wie ein
roter Faden durch diese
viersatzige Komposition,
die als musikalischer
Aufschrei (Anfang!) gegen
die mutwillige,
profitgesteuerte
Zerstorung unserer Umwelt
gedacht ist. Sicher hatte
das Wort ruhen vor
über 350 Jahren,
als der Liedtext
entstand, eine andere
Bedeutung als heute. Zu
Beginn des 21.
Jahrhunderts, im
sogenannten Zeitalter des
Fortschritts,
müsste es leider
wohl eher heissen: Nun
sterben alle Walder...
Massive
Industrialisierung,
Globalisierung, aber auch
Profitgier, Korruption,
politische
Unfahigkeit,krasse
Unterschiede zwischen arm
und reich, und
schlussendlich die
Uneinsichtigkeit des
einzelnen Menschen haben
dazu geführt, dass
der Blaue Planet heute
kurz vor dem Kollaps
steht. Dieses Werk soll
jedoch nicht nur
anklagen, es soll auch
die verbliebenen
Schonheiten unserer Natur
aufzeigen, in der
Hoffnung, dass es einmal
gelingen wird, die
Rettung der Natur und den
Schutz der Umwelt
über die oben
genannten Interessen zu
stellen. Alle vier Texte
stammen aus der Feder des
australischen Dichters
Graeme King, dessen Werk
der Komponist durch einen
glücklichen Zufall
im Internet entdeckte.
Besonders inspirierend
war die Direktheit von
Graemes Aussagen, aber
auch die kraftvolle
Rhythmik seiner Verse mit
den daraus resultierenden
Moglichkeiten der
musikalischen Umsetzung.

Le
cantique Nun ruhen alle
Walder, dont la ligne
melodique fut reprise par
Jean-Sebastien Bach pour
son choral So sein nun,
Seele, deine (Choral
ndeg6 - Cantate BWV 13),
est le fil conducteur de
cette oeuvre en quatre
mouvements concue comme
un cri contre la
destruction volontaire de
la nature pour le profit.
Plus de trois siecles
nous separent du temps de
Bach. Si les mots sont
restes les memes, leur
sens primitif connait
cependant quelques
nuances. Ainsi, au XXIe
siecle - considere comme
le << siecle du progres
>>, il conviendrait de
traduire Nun ruhen alle
Walder (les forets se
reposent ) par Les forets
se meurent. La
mondialisation et
l'industrialisation
massiveassociees a
l'avidite predatrice, a
la corruption politique,
aux actions humaines
irrationnelles et au
fosse grandissant entre
riches et pauvres
conduisent notre planete
bleue a se rapprocher
chaque jour un peu plus
du point de non retour.
Cette composition n'est
pas une accusation
acerbe, mais plutot une
exhortation a prendre
soin de cette beaute si
harmonieuse que nous
offre la nature. Et
peut-etre, prendrons-nous
enfin conscience de
l'importance d'une
situation de coexistence
avec la nature,
necessaire pour la survie
de l'espece humaine, et
non d'exploitation qui
conduit a la destruction.
Un jour, alors qu'il

Marco Pütz
decouvrit l'oeuvre du
poete australien Graeme
King. Fascine par la
clarte de l'ecriture et
le rythme des vers, Marco
Pütz imagina les
multiples possibilites
d'adaptation et de mise

poemes de King. Il
choisit quatre poemes sur
la nature pour creer son
oeuvre Four Earth Songs
(Quatre chants de la
terre). 1. Tears of
Nature (Les larmes de la
Nature) 2. Grrrevolution

Grrrevolution 3. Stand

première of Four Earth
Songs took place on 7
July 2009 at the 14th
WASBE-Conference in
Cincinnati (USA). This
work is dedicated in
friendship to Jouke
Hoekstra, conductor, and
the Frysk Fanfare Orkest
(the Frisian
Fanfare-Orchestra).
De hymne Nun
ruhen alle Wälder,
gearrangeerd door J.S.
Bach (nr. 6, So sei nun,
Seele, deine, uit cantate
BWV 13), is de leidraad
in deze vierdelige
compositie. Pütz
schreef het werk als een
muzikaal protest tegen de
moedwillige,op winstbejag
gebaseerde vernietiging
van ons milieu. Toen Bach
het woord
‘ruhen’
(rusten) meer dan 350
jaar geleden gebruikte,
lag er waarschijnlijk een
andere nuance in dan
tegenwoordig. Aan het
begin van de 21e eeuw -
dezogenaamde eeuw van de
vooruitgang - zou
‘nun ruhen alle
Wälder’ zelfs
kunnen betekenen:
‘nu sterven alle
bossen’. De
grootschalige
industrialisatie en
globalisering, in
combinatie met pure
hebzucht, corruptie,
politieke schandalen,een
groeiende kloof tussen
arm en rijk, en andere
dwaze menselijke
verrichtingen, brengen
onze blauwe planeet
steeds verder in de
problemen, tot er
misschien geen weg terug
meer is. Dit werk is niet
bedoeld als een
beschuldigendetirade. Het
moet ons wijzen op de
schoonheid en harmonie
die in de natuur om ons
heen kan bestaan, als we
er goed voor zorgen.
Pütz hoopt dat er op
een dag meer nadruk
gelegd zal worden op het
overleven van de mensheid
invreedzame co-existentie
met de natuur, zonder de
eerdergenoemde
uitbuiting. Alle vier de
teksten zijn geschreven
door de Australische
dichter Graeme King,
wiens werk Pütz bij
toeval tegenkwam op het
internet. Hij werd
getroffendoor Kings
helderheid en raakte ge
ntrigeerd door de
mogelijkheid de sterke
ritmische structuur van
Kings teksten om te
zetten in zijn eigen
muzikale taal. De vier
delen zijn de volgende:
1. Tears of Nature 2.
Grrrevolution 3.Stand up!
4. Tomorrow De
wereldpremière van
Four Earth Songs vond
plaats op 7 juli 2009
tijdens de 14e WASBE
Conference in Cincinnati
(VS). Dit werk is in
vriendschap opgedragen
aan dirigent Jouke
Hoekstra en zijn Fryskt
Fanfare
Der Choral
Nun ruhen alle Wälder,
hier in einer Bearbeitung
von J.S. Bach (Nr. 6 So
sei nun, Seele, deine aus
der Kantate BWV 13),
zieht sich wie ein roter
Faden durch diese
viersätzige
Komposition, die als
musikalischer Aufschrei
(Anfang!) gegen die
mutwillige,
profitgesteuerte
Zerstörung unserer
Umwelt gedacht ist.
Sicher hatte das Wort
ruhen“ vor
über 350 Jahren,
als der Liedtext
entstand, eine andere
Bedeutung als heute. Zu
Beginn des 21.
Jahrhunderts, im
sogenannten Zeitalter des
Fortschritts,
müsste es leider
wohl eher heißen: Nun
sterben alle
Wälder“...
Massive
Industrialisierung,
Globalisierung, aber auch
Profitgier, Korruption,
politische
Unfähigkeit,krasse
Unterschiede zwischen arm
und reich, und
schlussendlich die
Uneinsichtigkeit des
einzelnen Menschen haben
dazu geführt, dass
der Blaue Planet“
heute kurz vor dem
Kollaps steht. Dieses
Werk soll jedoch nicht
nur anklagen, es soll
auch die verbliebenen
Schönheiten unserer
Natur aufzeigen, in der
Hoffnung, dass es einmal
gelingen wird, die
Rettung der Natur und den
Schutz der Umwelt
über die oben
genannten Interessen zu
stellen. Alle vier Texte
stammen aus der Feder des
australischen Dichters
Graeme King, dessen Werk
der Komponist durch einen
glücklichen Zufall
im Internet entdeckte.
Besonders inspirierend
war die Direktheit von
Graemes Aussagen, aber
auch die kraftvolle
Rhythmik seiner Verse mit
den daraus resultierenden
Möglichkeiten der
musikalischen Umsetzung.
Die vier Sätze sind
wie folgt
überschrieben: 1.
Tears of Nature 2.
Grrrevolution 3. Stand
up! 4. Tomorrow Die
offizielle
Uraufführung von
Four Earth Songs fand am
7. Juli 2009 statt,
anlässlich der 14.
WASBE-Konferenz in
Cincinnati (USA). Das
Werk ist dem Dirigenten
Jouke Hoekstra und dem
Frysk Fanfare Orkest
(Friesischen
Fanfareorchester) in
aller Freundschaft
gewidmet.
Le
cantique Nun ruhen alle
Wälder, dont la ligne
mélodique fut reprise
par Jean-Sébastien
Bach pour son choral So
sein nun, Seele, deine
(Choral n°6 - Cantate
BWV 13), est le fil
conducteur de cette
oeuvre en quatre
mouvements conçue
comme un cri contre la
destruction volontaire de
la nature pour le profit.
Plus de trois siècles
nous séparent du temps
de Bach. Si les mots sont
restés les mêmes,
leur sens primitif
connaît cependant
quelques nuances. Ainsi,
au XXIe siècle -
considéré comme le
« siècle du
progrès », il
conviendrait de traduire
Nun ruhen alle Wälder
(“les forêts se
reposent “) par
“Les forêts se
meurentâ€. La
mondialisation et
l’industrialisatio
n massiveassociées
l’avidité
prédatrice, la
corruption politique, aux
actions humaines
irrationnelles et au
fossé grandissant
entre riches et pauvres
conduisent notre
planète bleue se
rapprocher chaque jour un
peu plus du point de non
retour. Cette composition
n’est pas une
accusation acerbe, mais
plutôt une exhortation
prendre soin de cette
beauté si harmonieuse
que nous offre la nature.
Et peut-être,
prendrons-nous enfin
conscience de
l’importance
d’une situation de
coexistence avec la
nature, nécessaire
pour la survie de
l’espèce
humaine, et non
d’exploitation qui
conduit la destruction.
Un jour, alors
qu’il naviguait
sur Internet, Marco
Pütz découvrit
l’oeuvre du
poète australien
Graeme King. Fasciné
par la clarté de
l’écriture et
le rythme des vers, Marco
Pütz imagina les
multiples possibilités
d’adaptation et de
mise en musique
qu’offrent les
poèmes de King. Il
choisit quatre poèmes
sur la nature pour
créer son oeuvre Four
Earth Songs (Quatre
chants de la terre). 1.
Tears of Nature (Les
larmes de la Nature) 2.

   Choral
Journal (September 2020)
These tracks represent
the first full CD of a
new American choral
ensemble: The Same
Stream. The
choir’s very
existence is the living
result of questions
regarding what it means
to sing together within a
deeply
“knittedâ€
community, a community
that shares answers to
commonly held questions
and beliefs about what
creates a truly human
resonance within and
among singers. For me,
this ensemble is a
continuation of beliefs
that have been my North
Star all of my career. To
hear those questions
answered and dreams
become a reality with the
establishment of The Same
Stream choir is deeply
humbling, gratifying and
life affirming. It is our
hope that these
recordings enrich those
who hear them—as
much as making them has
made our lives deeper and
more meaningful. —

in the lives of children.
Now in this wonderful
book, prepared in
collaboration with Marty
Haugen, artist Stephen
Nesser accompanies the
lyrics with scenes of
birth and new life
rituals from faith
traditions and cultures
around the world and then
shows these growing
children as they play
together to form
community. The vibrant
illustrations are a
perfect compliment to
Haugen's inspired poetry.

well as the full notation
of Child of Wonder for

9781622774647. We
can all be artists with
our voices, here and now.
I’m not talking
about singing lessons, or
reading music, or any
kind of study. We can
learn a song as easily as
children do, just by
opening our ears and
mouths. —Alice
Parker In this series of
beautifully detailed and
thought-provoking essays,
world-renown composer and
conductor Alice Parker
beckons us all to return
to the natural state of
singing. We move beyond
the scientific precision
of the printed page to
uncover the core of
creative expression.
Drawing on her decades of
experience as a musician,
teacher, and leader of
SINGS, Alice’s
insights and advice are
profound in their
simplicity. She reveals
the true importance of
our voices, encouraging
all of us to open our
ears and then our mouths
to express our common
humanity. Like Alice
Parker's music making,
the book is simple, but
moving and profound. She
honors singing, as you
would expect, saying in
the very first sentence
of the book, Song is a
gift given to all human
beings who have ears and
a voice. And a few pages
later, Song is truly the
most democratic of the
arts. We need no
equipment other than ears
and voices, no instrument
other than heart and
mind. If you found
yourself thinking: What
about eyes to read the
notes? This book would
reply that you are
thinking about song(s)
instead of Song. Songs
can be stored in a book
or file cabinet, Song
happens only when there
is singing. Song is about
listening and singing

Hungarian Folk. In
2014, Chanticleer
commissioned me to make a
new arrangement of the
Hungarian-Romani folk
song Jarba, Mare Jarba
for their 2014 touring
program. Passed down
orally through the Romani
communities, this
beautiful folk song, with
text in a language called
Beas (beh-osh), speaks of
a deep longing to visit
one's homeland, a place
where the singer can
never return. Chanticleer
consists of twelve men
whose vocal ranges span
from low bass to high
soprano, equivalent to
the range of a mixed
choir of women and men. I
composed slow sections of
original material to
represent the singers'
longing to return home;
these are interspersed
with the folk song's
traditional fast
sections. The
incorporated shouts and
calls in the score are
typically found in the
performance of Central
European folk songs. I
hope you enjoy singing
this new version of
Jarba, Mare Jarba that
contains all of the vigor
and excitement of the
Chanticleer version.

inches. A
fascination with
polycultural synergy
between diverse literary
textsdrives the
inspiration for much of
Mohammed Fairouz’s
prodigiouscreative
output, including
instrumental music as
well as vocal. Inhis
profound and extensive
essay preceding the
score, Fairouz shedslight
on how Edgar Allen
Poe’s “Israfel”
relates to the
prophetsand prophesies of
the Quran, Old Testament,
and New Testament.The
eight-movement quartet
may be heard as a
dramatic galleryof
portraits and of
story-telling,
flourishing in a
post-traditionallanguage
that is at once
vernacular and spiritual,
Middle Easternand
Western. The complete set
of score and parts is
included in
thispublication. (See
pages 2-3 of score for
clear distinction of
paragraphs,
etc.)Prophesies, by
Mohammed FairouzEdgar
Allen Poe’s rendition
of Israfel was the point
of departure for the
final movement of my
previous stringquartet
which is titled The Named
Angels. At the opening of
his poem, Poe evokes the
Quran:“And the angel
Israfel, whose
heartstrings are a lute,
and who has the sweetest
voice of all God’s
creatures.”This informs
the first lines of the
poem that, in turn, gave
me the title for the
final movement of The
Named
Angels,“Israfel’s
Spell”:In Heaven a
spirit doth dwell“Whose
heartstrings are a
lute”None sing so
wildly wellAs the angel
Israfel,And the giddy
stars (so legends
tell),Ceasing their
hymns, attend the spellOf
his voice, all mute.It is
the end of that poem,
however, that is the
starting point for the
current quartet,
Prophesies, which
concernsitself with
mortal prophets rather
than eternal Angelic
spirits.If I could
dwellWhere IsrafelHath
dwelt, and he where I,He
might not sing so wildly
wellA mortal melody,While
a bolder note than this
might swellFrom my lyre
within the sky.Islamic
thought has asked us to
look at the example of
the prophets. That’s
significant because of
the fact thatJoseph and
all the prophets were
human beings with the
flaws of human beings. No
prophet was perfect,
andIslamic tradition has
never asked its followers
to aspire to the example
of the Angels, the
perfected ones. Instead
weare given the gift of
our prophets. While The
Named Angels drew on the
motion and energy of
everlasting
spirits,Prophesies is a
depiction of the
movements within our own
mortal coil.This quartet
is a continuation of a
long tradition of Muslim
artists telling their
stories and singing their
songs.Many of these
renditions are, in fact,
figurative and (contrary
to popular belief) the
Quran contains no
“Islamicedict”
prohibiting figurative
renditions of the figures
described in the Old
Testament, New Testament,
or Quran.The majority of
artists, however, have
preferred eternal and
abstract forms such as
words and their
calligraphicrepresentatio
ns, poems (Yusuf and
Zuleikha or the
Conference of Birds come
immediately to mind),
architecture,and many
other non-figurative art
forms to the
representation of man.
These cold, ancient, and
everlasting shapesof
unending time flourished,
and the divine infinity
of representing geometric
forms gained favor over
the placementof the
explicit representation
of mankind and our own
likeness at the center of
the universes.Adding the
string quartet to these
forms which express the
recursive spheres of
heavens and earth
abstractly shouldexplain
why I have chosen to
render higher things
through the use of music
without the addition of
words or anyother
art-form. It is the
abstract art of pure
form, in which all is
form and all is content,
which compels me.
Thisquartet should be
seen as no more
programmatic than the
arches of the Great
Mosque at Cordoba.The
first movement, Yāqub
(Jacob), is slow, quiet
and prayerful. It evokes
the patient sorrow of a
slow choraledeveloping
over time as it coaxes
our pulse out of the
ticking of a clock-like
meter that defines our
day-to-day livesand into
a divine eternity.The
second, Saleh, imagines
the spirit of that
desert-prophet through
the use of a Liwa; the
dance-sequence that
hasbeen such a prevalent
form of expression in the
Arabian Peninsula for
much of our recorded
history.The third
movement is titled
Dawoōd, and it is
emblematic of the beloved
Prophet, King, and
Psalmist, David.Though it
has no lyrics, the
movement functions as a
dabkeh (an ancient dance
native to the Levant) and
also “sets”the
opening of Psalm 100
(Make a joyful noise unto
the Lord, all ye lands).
This line is never set to
music or sung inthe
quartet but is evoked
through the rhythmic
shape of the violin part
which imitates the
phonology and rhythmof my
speaking the opening line
in the Hebrew and
develops the contours of
that line incessantly
throughout
themovement.3The fourth
movement is an ode to
Yousef (Joseph) and
relates to the first
movement in tempo and
tone just as
Josephrelates to Jacob,
his father. Together, the
first and fourth
movements provide a sort
of Lamentation and
relief.Joseph had the
appearance of a noble
angel, but he was very
much a human being. And
the story of this
particularprophet had
tragic beginnings many
years before he found
himself in a position of
power in Egypt. Back in
his youth,still among the
Israelites, Joseph
experienced a series of
revelations through his
dreams that spoke of his
impendingcareer in
prophecy. He confided his
dreams to his father, the
Prophet Jacob, who told
his son of the greatness
thatawaited him in his
future only to have his
brothers throw him into a
well and leave him for
dead. Joseph
eventuallyfound his way
from Israel to Egypt and
rose out of slavery into
a position of power.
Meanwhile, famine engulfs
Israel.Forty years pass,
and back in the land of
Jacob and Rachel, of
Joseph’s brothers and
Abraham’s tribe, Israel
wasnot spared the effects
of the famine. They
sorely lacked Joseph’s
prophecy and his vision.
The Qur’an then tells
usthat Jacob, sensing
Joseph, sends the other
brothers to Egypt
instructing them to come
back with food and
grain.Arriving in Egypt,
they unwittingly appear
before Joseph. They
don’t recognize their
little brother who has
risen toa position of
might, dressed in his
Egyptian regalia. They
ask for the food and the
grain.After some
conversation, Joseph is
no longer able to contain
his emotion. Overcome, he
reveals himself to his
nowterrified brothers. He
embraces them. He asks
them eagerly, “How is
our father?” Joseph
gives them the gift of
thefood and the grain
that they came in search
of. He relieves them from
hunger and alleviates
their fear. He sendsthem
back with proof that he
is alive, and it is this
joyful proof from the
miraculous hands of a
prophet that bringsback
the ancient Jacob’s
vision after 40 years of
blindness.In this story,
I am struck by the fact
that Joseph may not have
made the decision to
forgive his brothers on
thespot, but that
something inside the
prophet’s soul found
forgiveness and peace for
the brothers who had so
gravelywronged him at
some point along his
journey. I would suspect
this point to have been
present at Joseph’s
inception,even before he
had ever been
wronged.This is proof, if
we needed it, that
Joseph’s angel-like
beauty was not only
physical and external,
but also internalas well:
Joseph possessed a
profound loveliness of
spirit that bound his
appearance and his soul.
In Joseph, formand soul
are one.Time is to
musicians what light is
to a painter. In this
way, the story of Joseph
also shows us that time
can affectour perception
of even the most tragic
wounds. In fact, the most
common Arabic word for
“human being” is
insaan,which shares its
roots with the word
insaa, “to forget.”
While our ability to
remember is essential to
how we learnabout
ourselves, our capacity
to “forgive and
forget” may also be one
of our great gifts as
human beings.The fifth
movement follows my ode
to Joseph with a
structural memory of
Mūsa (Moses). The
movement consistsentirely
of descending motifs
which I constructed as an
indication of Moses’
descending movement as he
emergedto his people from
the heights of Mt. Sinai.
The music is constructed
in five phrases which
function as a
formalreference to the
five books of Moses, the
Pentateuch. The movement
is placed as the fifth of
the quartet for the
samereason.While Joseph
is always evoked as
supremely beautiful in
the Books of Judaism,
Christianity, and Islam,
Suleiman(Solomon) is
described as surpassing
in his quicksilver
intelligence. This
movement is composed of a
seven-partriddle which
passes by in an instant
but can be caught by the
attentive listener. From
Solomon, we work our
wayback to Yishak (Isaac)
in a seventh movement
that evokes Isaac’s
literal meaning in Arabic
and Hebrew: laughter.The
eighth and final movement
of this quartet is named
for the Patriarch of the
entire Book: Ibrahim
(Abraham). Itrelates to
Isaac just as Joseph
relates to Jacob; they
are father and son. The
lines are prayerful and
contemplative;the form of
the music evolves from a
fugue joining together
many different forms of
prayer into a single
tapestry ofcounterpoint,
to the cyclical form of
this entire quartet which
is rendered through the
motion of pilgrims
circling theKaaba (cube)
in Mecca — a structure
which was built by
Abraham for Hagaar and
their son Ismail.These
are just some of the
figures that are
cherished by all three of
the Middle Eastern
monotheisms
(Judaism,Christianity,
and Islam) that the
Qur’an refers to
collectively as Ahl
Al-Kitab. This Arabic
phrase is most
commonlytranslated as
“The People of the
Book,” but here the
most common translation
is a flawed one: the
Arabic word“ahl”
means “family” and
not just “people.” A
better translation would
be “Family of the
Book.” Each of the
eightmovements of
Prophesies grows from a
single musical cell.This
quartet is a family
album.—Mohammed Fairouz
