Simeon ten Holt: Canto Ostinato

Simeon ten Holt composed with the Canto Ostinato, literally translated ‘stubborn song’, a piece of music in which time and space become separate from each other and where it is about experiencing locally. As with improvisation, the musical choices are made at the time of the performance. The Matangis race through the piece and are in constant communication with each other. At Canto Ostinato there is therefore no leadership. The piece leads itself. Tension and relaxation create a desire that gives way to deep emotion.

Wassim Ibrahim: Salat- Al Amal Prayer of Hope

I composed this piece , It is written for a string trio with a rhythm that is both dance-like and deeply spiritual. The musical language draws on the mystical tones of chants from both churches and mosques in Damascus—echoes of Aramaic hymns and Islamic prayers.
