DESCRIPTION:
Sami Yusuf’s instrumental composition ‘The Meeting’ is a deeply moving and intimate work. Direct and non-linear, the melodies and rhythms sustain and support one another flawlessly as the music moves fluidly between Western and Middle Eastern modal systems. Solos by Huseyin Can Pala on baglama, Eyüpcan Açikpazu on ney, Onur Cicin on qanun and Hasan Hekimoglu on oud circle each other to create an embracing ambience where each melodic line is a subtle gem, strong and fragile in equal measure.
Recorded live at The Holland Festival.

‘The Meeting’ has no lyrics. In your view, what is being communicated?

[@aseelkhalil578]

Your spiritual music resonates within us and makes our spiritual dimensions meet without words
The cultures are deeply intertwined, harmonious and majestic, creating for us a spiritual composition beyond any description
Your intelligence and musical genius is second to none 🎶🎼🎵

جواب السؤال في العنوان
اجتماع آلات موسيقية من حضارات مختلفة في معزوفة واحدة.جميلة تحاكي اجتماع وتناغم الشعوب رغم اختلافهم في معزوفة كونية واحدة 🎶🌸

[@banfsajiraq3444]

حلق عاليا حيث النجوم حيث المجرات حيث لا إله إلا الله تحيي القلوب.... موسيقى لامست قلبي وحلقت بروحي عاليا لا لامست سماءا ولا وطئت أرضا .... لكنني أرحل مع كل نغمة إلى معنى الأبدية في ذات الفناء....
سامي يوسف كل الحب والود لك ولقلبك ولفنك ولكل من أبدع معك....

[@al1celik]

Ön plana çıkan enstrümanlardan olsa gerek (bağlama, ney, kanun) bana Osmanlı müziğini fazlasıyla anımsattı. Sami Yusuf, doğu ve batı arasındaki müzikal sentezi çok başarılı yapıyor. Tüm ekibe tebrikler 👍

[@ahmadyasin_nex]

In fact, there is no alternative to Sami Yusuf. Love from Bangladesh 🥰🥰
