L'ensemble Constantinople interprète la musique de Dimitrie Cantemir (1673-1723), prince, savant, compositeur et diplomate moldave. Si les compositions de ce personnage historique fascinant occupent une place à part entière au sein du répertoire de la musique ottomane, son influence est d’autant plus grande qu’il a aussi répertorié plus de 350 œuvres instrumentales dans son ouvrage Edvar-i Musiki. C’est en utilisant son propre système de notation qu’il a offert au monde l'une des plus importantes sommes de musique ottomane et du Moyen-Orient des 16e et 17e siècles.

Ensemble Constantinople performs the music of Dimitrie Cantemir (1673-1723), a Moldavian prince, scholar, composer, and diplomat. A fascinating historical figure, Cantemir’s compositions are considered part of the Ottoman music repertoire. More influential though are the over 350 instrumental works that he preserved in his book, Edvar-i Musiki, using his own innovative notation system, which remains as one of the most important collections of 16th and 17th century Ottoman and Middle Eastern music.

No matter the origins, it's part of the common heritage of humanity. It has no nationality, no religion. It's just an eternal momentum to be shared by all those who open their heart to the beauty of true connection with Source.
We're all linked.

Love am a musician....and my family name was Anglicized from Kantymir to Ketemer when my great-grandfather came to Canada from Bukovina in 1902. I do not know if my descent was genetic or only nominal.

desde Chile, admirada de tan bella musica e interpretes, como dice un señor, esto es herencia, patrimonio del mundo, para el mundo, felicitaciones, me imagino en esa epoca, bailando al ritmo cadencioso de estas notas que fluyen con tanta naturalidad de cada instrumento, gracias

This is so beautiful, a balm for the soul! I first came across the music of Dimitrie Cantemir through Jordi Savall, and then Anton Pann Ensemble. Words cant describe how much I love this - so divine and peaceful, speaks to our common humanity. Thank you for sharing.

The most natural sounding and captivating interpretation of Cantemir and Safavid era music available today! Hopefully these old rhythmic cycles and compositional techniques can influence modern Persian dastgah music. I think the Qajar era lost some of this beauty in its rhythmic compositions, they seem to usually just stick to slow tasnifs and athletic chaharmezrabs almost all in 6/8. And these frame drums seem more suitable to Persian music than the modern daf, which I think is Kurdish in origin, or a solo tonbak, which often gets drowned out in larger ensembles.

[dr_lulz]

Transcendent. Easily taken for granted but the skill, devotion, spirit that these humans have put into crafting this for us all is truly phenomenal. Thank you, I will aim to purchase your entire catalogue.

[WaftyHippyLass]

Another beautiful, beautiful concert. Thank you so much. :)
