The Mevlevi brotherhood, founded by the followers of the great Sufi mystic, poet and Islamic theologian Jalāl al-Dīn Muhammad Rūmī (1207-1273), practice a form of Islamic mysticism expressed via esoteric rituals and ceremonies with sacred music and dance movements performed by whirling dervishes to achieve a trance-like ecstasy in the remembrance of God (Dhikr). 

 

This graceful, ecstatic music, recorded by ethnomusicologist and orientalist Jean-Claude Chabrier (b. 1931), features enthralling devotional ney flute solos by Hayri Tümer (1902-1973) (A1, A3, B2, B3), a call to prayer (A2), a prayer-offering sung by Münir Nurettin Selçuk (1900-1981) (A4), and ensembles with flutes, percussion and voices (A5, B1).

  1. Thank you!

    There is an inconsistence in the downloaded files: the record has eight tracks, but the download contains nine tracks. Two of them are tagged as "A3 Taksim", but one of them actually seems to consist of two tracks. So I thought it might be A3 and A4 together, but the spectral of the second part look very different (I haven't listened to the tracks yet) from the separate one of A4. Could you check?

    1. Thank you very much for pointing this out to me. I just corrected the issue by removing the extra file. Take good care.
