Love, Crystal and Stone: VI. Casida de las palomas oscuras

from Love, Crystal and Stone by TAK ensemble & Ashkan Behzadi

/
  • 76-page book in paper slipcase with CD insert
    Designed by Sonnenzimmer
    With poetry by Federico García Lorca & translations by Ahmad Shamlou
    Original essay by Saharnaz Samaeinejad
    Paintings by Mehrdad Jafari

    The physical release weaves together the magical imagery and philosophical backdrop of Behzadi’s composition, taking the form of a beautifully constructed art book. The book, designed by Chicago-based graphic art studio Sonnenzimmer, creates an over-arching intermedia dialogue in three languages that enhances and elaborates upon Behzadi’s music. This material companion to the album weaves together Lorca’s poetry in Spanish side by side with Shamlou’s Farsi translations, paintings by Mehrdad Jafari, and both commentary and historically-informed imaginary letters in English written by cultural theorist Saharnaz Samaeinejad.
