'Visions, Fantasies and Dances' for string quartet composed by Yitzhak Yedid in 2007. The composition is in seven parts, its duration is 60 minutes. Each part contains several images. Here you can hear Part 4, The images of this part are: Celebration of the promiscuous dancers; Chorus about the hallucinations; "A time to weep, a time to laugh, a time to mourn, a time to dance." (Ecclesiastes 3:4); Wondering about the hallucinations; And behold, again the celebrators; Creating like mad. This clip is from a concert in Tel Aviv in February 2008. It performed by Yedid Ensemble: Hadas Fabrikant -- Violin, Carmel Raz -- Violin, Amit Landau -- Viola, Jonathan Gotlibovich -- Cello

  • Thank you. I wouldn't be able to see this played locally...and seeing Yedid played adds to hearing him.

  • Yedid's offers a map of the almost cinematic images and feelings that inspired him through the composing process, but states clearly that he welcomes other narratives that the listener may imagine for himself.

  • beautiful dissonance...

  • Incredible performance!!! Good Job!!

  • Think about it, the fact that the music made you picture such a story, and open your imagination, even if it's not a 'nice story' means something.

    I actually like your 'story' and the music.

  • Makes me picture some kid dying of a bad acid trip. he lies on the floor of his bedroom shaking, his breaths coming in ragged gasps as his mind reels with disjointed, impossible images. He scrabbls feebly towards the bathroom and the sink for needed water only to perish at the threshold imagining a belly dancer tap dancing on his skull with stletto heels. All that is heard is the drip drip of the faucet. The scene fades out only to replay again.

    Creepy music.

  • Yitzhak Yedid, der 1971 als Sohn syrisch-jüdischer Einwanderer in Jerusalem geboren wurde, bringt durch seine eigenen Wurzeln eine Menge Konfliktpotential mit sich. Mit etwas Phantasie und Interpretationswillen kann man dies auch seinen Kompositionen anhören, die oftmals von Disharmonien und extremen Tempiwechseln begleitet sind. Dennoch -- oder gerade deswegen -- wird Yedid als "einer der kreativsten lebenden Komponisten" betrachtet.

  • Yedid es el compositor contemporaneo que más me agrada oír, por su reconocible estilo y su conocimiento de los instrumentos para los que escribe.
