Rumi's Love
Sina
2008"Come, let's fall in love again," begins Rumi's Love, a collection of poems by the 13th-century mystic poet, with a musical score by Hamoon Tehrani and voiced by Sina Yasavolian. Echoing and enhancing Rumi's timeless words of universal love, Yasavolian's sweet, sultry voice reaches out to embrace us on the currents of Tehrani's music, and we're on our way to fall in love again with everything: a flower, the sunshine, each other, the ocean, our world, ourselves. Rumi's Love roams musically freely in style and sound, from simple piano and zither to full on Sufi abandonment-cum-Arab rock with impassioned singing. The album unfurls like a complex, free-form flag, where every word and thought has its echo in the music and in our minds.
"Come, my sweetheart, don't talk about the journey / Say no more about the path / You are my path," Yasavolian urges. "You are my journey / Come, come." Zither and organ provide an easy atmosphere for her sweet accent and echo-laden invitation ("Come"). In "Restless" Yasavolian lends a yearning urgency to Rumi's search for one's heart's desire: "Now I go to the door / Now I go on the roof / Until I see your face." As we contemplate this transcendent love, Hamoon Tehrani suffuses the atmosphere with gentle raindrops of piano and darkening clouds of zither and organ. The feeling of gathering forces and preparation for departure suffuses the air, as if you are in a terminal lounge waiting for a faraway flight to a far-off lover.
"Ode to Rumi" closes the album with the sweep of an orchestral film score. We can feel ourselves rise up and leave the beautiful scenes of ancient Persia that our Sufi mystic poet has created through the sweet voice of Sina Yasavolian: "Come, come, my sweetheart." She's talking to you, connecting directly to the true inner soul of us all. It's all the same葉o love one is to love all, the way one loves the light from, say, a lamp. The bulbs take different shapes and sizes, but the light is the same: the same source, the same glow, the same object of your love, as potent and healing now as it was in the 13th-century. So say no more about the path. Come.
