Al Andaluz Project - Deus et Diabolus

Al Andaluz Project is the new musical adventure of Mara Aranda and Efren Lopez, L'Ham de Foc training with veteran German law Estampie recreating ancient music led by singer Sigrid Hausen and its director Michael Popp, joined them Andalusian singer Iman Al Kandousi a girl born in Tetuan. Has spawned a sweeping interpretation of a repertoire inspired by the historical moment referred to by the name of the project. Cantigas are medieval, and traditional Nuba Andalusí Sephardic music performed with a pulse excellent.

Al-Andalus (also Al Andaluz) is the name under which the Umayyad conquerors referred to the Iberian Peninsula. Hispania, ruled by the Moors were known for their high level of tolerance, learning, welfare, trade and flourishing artistic creation. Women and men of Muslim, Jewish and Christian coexisted and influenced each other for centuries. In the court of a western king as Alfonso X "The Wise" of Castile gathered philosophers, poets, artists and musicians, producing a unique and exemplary fusion of cultures.

Beyond borders sought religious truth, the philosophical, scientific and religious, and the diversity and disparity is considered an enrichment, rather than a problem. The Caliphate had nine public baths, thousands of mosques, water and well-lit streets. Toledo had become, in the eleventh century, the intellectual capital of Europe, a Christian town in that Arabic remained the language of culture and scholarship. Through Toledo and translators schools and libraries, the rest of Europe had access to the works of antiquity. After a thorough study of this period confirms the impression that the Middle Ages in Al-Andalus was a time of light rather than darkness, and that this level of religious and cultural fusion has never achieved.

The newly formed Al Andaluz Project attempts to revive these aspects for our present. Through dialogue with the old songs, the singing in different languages \u200b\u200band different cultures coming together of music, building a music conveys this vision of tolerance that described the Andalusian poet Ibn al-Arabi (* 1165, Murcia) in a poem :

"My heart takes all forms, is pasture for gazelles and a monastery for the monk, a temple for idols and the pilgrim Kaaba, tables of the Torah and Book the Koran. The religion they profess is Love, and where will I turn her caravan, for love is my faith and my religion. "
