A Muli Media Performance starring Sussan Deyhim.

Conceived and created in collaboration with Shoja Azari, Ghasem Ebrahimian, Richard Horowitz, Sussan Deyhim and Shirin Neshat.

Electro-Persian excursion by Iranian vocalist Sussan Deyhim and composer Richard Horowitz. A groundbreaking album, dominated by Ms. Deyhim’s sublime voice surging from behind virtual dunes and electronic oasises.

This collection of classical melodies from the Persian repotiore is based on the poetry of Rumi, Hafez and other Sufi writers from the 11th to the 19th cenruries. These pieces are as well known by my grandparents as they are by my own generation, and they represent the torch songs of classical Persian music.

As a composer and performance artist, I;ve been looking for those rare occasions wherer a moment or situation freezes all thought processes and rhetorical rationalizations. All my soundscapes for Shirin Neshat have been romantic journeys into a deep sone, searching for universal, sonic metaphors to evoke language from her silent narrative abstractions; creating a space which travels beyond referential codes and transcends into the hyper-real, the surreal and the timeless
