Description

[Machine Translation] Iraqi oud player/composer Raheem al-Hajj tackles in this work a composition for string quintet and oud. All of the pieces are inspired by letters written by people living in Iraq. Even after the fall of the Hussein regime, the people of Iraq have not been living peacefully due to conflicts between religious factions and the invasion of Islamic extremists, and Raheem responds to the letters of the people of his homeland with carefully constructed compositions. The deeply emotional and emotional elements of classical music intersect and sometimes blend with Raheem's delicate oud playing, which is profound and emotional. More than a work of mixed music with oud and strings, this is a powerful work that should be savored as a concerto.

Note: This is an import edition (manufactured outside of Japan).

Description in Japanese

イラクからの手紙～ウードと弦楽五重奏 / ラヒーム・アルハジ

イラク出身のウード奏者/コンポーザー、ラヒーム・アルハジがこの作品で取り組んだのは、弦楽五重奏とウードの為の作曲。収録された楽曲は、全てイラクで暮らす人々によって書かれた手紙に着想を得ている。フセイン政権が倒れて以降も、各宗教派閥の対立やイスラム過激派の侵攻など、平和裏に暮らしているとは言い難い故郷の人々の手紙に、ラヒームは丁寧に構築された作曲で答える。深く感情を揺さぶる情緒的なクラシック音楽の要素と、ラヒームの繊細なウードの演奏が交差し、時に混じり合う様は、深淵でエモーショナル。ウードと弦楽の競演によるミクスチュア・ミュージックの作品という以上に、ひとつの協奏曲として味わあってほしい力作。
