A fascination with polycultural synergy between diverse literary texts
drives the inspiration for much of Mohammed Fairouz’s prodigious
creative output, including instrumental music as well as vocal. In
his profound and extensive essay preceding the score, Fairouz sheds
light on how Edgar Allen Poe’s “Israfel” relates to the prophets
and prophesies of the Quran, Old Testament, and New Testament.
The eight-movement quartet may be heard as a dramatic gallery
of portraits and of story-telling, flourishing in a post-traditional
language that is at once vernacular and spiritual, Middle Eastern
and Western. The complete set of score and parts is included in this
publication.
