Seven Heavens for brass

Artikel-Nr.: EP73765 (H)

"When brass septet, Septura, approached me about a 10th anniversary commission and mentioned the word spiritual the Muslim concept of seven levels, or Jannah', of paradisiacal afterlife came to mind. Each heaven has its own unique mood and atmosphere, with metaphorical imagery, and is be portrayed in a short movement, where one of the players will be featured as a soloist, with the other six accompanying them. Throughout the piece I have used Arab maqams (or scales) to place the works sound world at the source of Islam.
1. Paradise of Adan (residence and eternal place) Repentant and discordant harmonies after punishment for sins introduce this movement. The tuba takes the solo role, accompanied by a river of rushing and swirling maqam, flowing below beautiful gardens where every wish is granted. The music mellows as acceptance from God is granted.

Details für "Seven Heavens for brass"

"When brass septet, Septura, approached me about a 10th anniversary commission and mentioned the word spiritual the Muslim concept of seven levels, or Jannah', of paradisiacal afterlife came to mind. Each heaven has its own unique mood and atmosphere, with metaphorical imagery, and is be portrayed in a short movement, where one of the players will be featured as a soloist, with the other six accompanying them. Throughout the piece I have used Arab maqams (or scales) to place the works sound world at the source of Islam.
1. Paradise of Adan (residence and eternal place) Repentant and discordant harmonies after punishment for sins introduce this movement. The tuba takes the solo role, accompanied by a river of rushing and swirling maqam, flowing below beautiful gardens where every wish is granted. The music mellows as acceptance from God is granted.
2. Paradise of Firdaus (Garden) This is the most prestigious and superior level with every kind of plant: fruit, trees and especially grapevines so the noble bass trombone solo is accompanied by entwining gentle maqams and little fanfares.
3. Paradise of Naeem (blissful paradise or delight) Warm, comforting and tranquil harmonies accompany the 2nd trombone as this heaven rewards its inhabitants with a prosperous and peaceful life, abundant in happiness and numerous blessings. The river of the first movement reappears, more serenely, towards the end.
4. Paradise of Mawa (a place to take refuge, dwelling, home, to descend home) The first trombone starts its solo on its own, depicting the Lote tree which abides here. The music for the tree is rising up, growing and healing. The other players accompany by rattling pencils in their instruments bells and blowing gently through their instruments to make a sound like the trees leaves rustling in the wind. Angels accompany the soul descending home.

5. House of Qurub (near/close in proximity to God) The music becomes intimate and reverential. The second trumpets ardent solo is accompanied by hymn-like harmonies, the instruments closer in pitch to each other.
6. Paradise of Al-Aliyah (high, elevated, superior, in location and rank). The highest place in Paradise naturally features the piccolo trumpet as soloist, accompanied by ascending maqam scales and rising harmonies as we are under the throne of God and his incomprehensible greatness.
7. House of Al-Salam (home of peace and safety) We come home to where the piece started, safe from visible and invisible harms, no grief or sorrow, death or illness threatens abode of well-being. Initially, the 1st trumpet plays their solo against a backdrop of the first movements tuba theme, harmonised in all the other parts. Then the river returns and every instrument reminds us of a few bars of their theme. We end in jubilant splendour as God, with the light of guidance, illuminates our hearts. I am hugely grateful to Septura for commissioning me and particularly to eminent Islamic scholar Imam Dr. Sayed Ali Abbas Razawi and his students, for their fantastic and informative research notes.
