Elmir Mirzoev, "Fayum Portraits I" (2004), Seattle Chamber Players Ensemble by XP5 published on 2012-11-30T12:05:13Z "Fayum Portraits I" for bass flute/or flute, percussion, harp, violoncello and tape What attitude has the ancient Egyptian doleful picturesque portraits in modern life? What do these apocalyptic silent faces transmitting their message through millenniums speak us about? These faces symbolize the preventions - future accidents, ruthless, ominous nightmares, misfortunes, expecting all of us inevitably. What does our modern civilization - epoch of expanding epidemic of metaphysical famine, technocratic manufactures and consumptions means? It is the certain apogee where all obscure magic and occult methods, all curved energetic lines and the deformed fields converge. Here it is happened our real “initiation", and it is our "dedication", it is the finished "harmonious" composition in which it is clearly looked through existential many-sided foresights.
