road to Damascus..

6/3/2014

is an improvisation on J. S. Bach's holy cross theme (in this case e,c,f,g#) and arabic sounding effects. In 2006 I travelled through Syria and was captivated by the arabic culture; not only unforgettable landscape and delicious food, but also warmth and friendliness of the people and the mixture of different religions. In Damascus, I saw a church and Mosque built next to each other and so in this piece, I was wanted to somehow unite the spiritual elements of these religions in music. This piece is dedicated to Dr. Bettina Engelke and visual artist Wolfgang Tiemann with whom I travelled.
