Radīf at home I am also very pleased to announce, that the concert recording of the world premiere of Elshan Ghasimi's Radīf interpretation on the 10th of November 2022 is available online. Enjoy the concert by clicking on the video above, or click on the video below, if you want to first listen to the introductory and contextualising speeches by the British music critic Michael Church and the director of the Museum für Islamische Kunst (Museum of Islamic Art), Stefan Weber. The first chapter of the systematic and comprehensive reinterpretation of the system of Persian art music has begun. As artistic director of the project and of Bublitz, my thanks go first and foremost to the composer and musician Elshan Ghasimi, who has set out to preserve and renew an important piece of world culture. Special thanks also go to the Museum für Islamische Kunst (Museum of Islamic Art) as a partner, the Bode Museum and the State Institute for Music Research as hosts, as well as to all the sponsors and our wonderful audience. With warmest regards, Julian Malte Hatem Schindele |
