Silkroad Ensemble Re-records Two Traditional Pieces as “Palestinian Lullabies”

Silkroad Ensembe re-recorded two traditional Arabic folk songs - “Khet el Sobeh” and “Wa’ouyouneha” - and released them as one piece titled “Palestinian Lullabies.”

“These lullabies belong to Palestinian and Levantine Arab folk repertoire, traditionally transmitted orally for generations in the whole region of the Arab Levant,” the global confederation of musicians under the leadership of artistic director Rhiannon Giddens said in a statement.

Silkroad issued the pieces as war rages between Hamas and Israel in the Gaza Strip. The exotic-to-Westerners music is hypnotic, much of it improvised, and made more entrancing via an accompanying animated video that finds images of sleeping children under the care of loving adults morphing into a city on fire and back again.

Sung in Arabic by Giddens, Layale Chaker and Nora Fischer, accompanied by a mix of strings, woodwinds, percussion and keyboard instruments, the songs are translated as “Thread of the Morning” and “Her Eyes,” respectively.

His eyes are full of sleep/oh thread of the morning/oh separator between him and I/his eyes are full of sleep/if only morning did not start appearing/his eyes are full of sleep, goes the first, as translated by Silkroad.

Goes the second: My bird, you’d say that her eyes are like cups/cups full of coffee/your beautiful, black eyes/your beautiful, black eyes/oh your eyes

Louis Andriessen's 'The only one' is out now on Nonesuch Records; you can get it and hear it here. This world premiere performance by the Los Angeles Philharmonic was recorded live at Walt Disney Concert Hall in May 2019, conducted by Esa-Pekka Salonen, with solo vocalist Nora Fischer. Two artistic discoveries influenced Andriessen as he wrote The only one: a collection of poems by the Flemish poet Delphine Lecompte from The animals in me, and the work of Nora Fischer, an Amsterdam–based singer known for developing dynamic creative projects that fuse classical and pop music.
