Symphony by: Iman Al Hashemi
During the civil war in Nigeria that broke out in 1967, the two warring factions declared a 24-hour armistice; This is so that the two sides can watch the Brazilian soccer player Pele playing in the Nigerian city of Lagos, away from the sound of gunshots and the sound of cannons, and from here the world confirmed that sports and the arts are stronger than war, and smarter than the politics of peacemakers, so the question remains: What if music is made Peace forever?
Baghdadi, of Arab origin, with security, weak in structure and honest in intention, from an Iraqi father and a Jordanian mother. He lived his youth in the prime of Alexandria, and spent most of his life in Syria; There he founded the symphony orchestra, and also co-founded the opera house, to differ in his musical creativity from all the others. His story is bloody sad, rather tragic, and its end was an epic, if you will, iconic, career; but more precisely Beethoven; The National Orchestra stopped abruptly, and with it his artistic journey in a split second, while he was playing Beethoven’s Second Movement Concerto; And that’s when, after suffering a sudden hemorrhage in the brain, suddenly and inadvertently fell onto the stage during the concert, bleeding a blood-red melody into the void, and so the musicians spent the night in the hospital dressed in concert clothes, behind black suits lined up like a line of winces, awaiting the inevitable fate of their leader, Which paralysis decided not to lead them after that day.
The genius Sulhi Al Wadi left a valid valley of works, and it became a precious musical treasure that is not valued for money. He presented many compositions of chamber music and orchestral, theatrical and cinematic melodies, with unique methods and a non-chemical magical composition, but the difficulty lies in understanding how much and how the emotional aura surrounding his compositions, sometimes His tracks are scaled and ignored, and his sanctification is sometimes announced after his death. In his 73-year career of effort and jihad, the melodies of (the valley) are still roaming in every valley, drawing a smile in the heart, despite the wear of mourning and the color of black; Where his music simulates dark, violent irony, and wounded ambition that is difficult to categorize, as if it were a neglected human statement, or a documented testimony of general despair, as the sun’s threads are hardly understood except by sunset, as a result of dyeing the Arab region with the blood of wars; To tell the true colors that they were never real, but the real truth remains, that when we focus on pain, the torment increases, and when we focus on hope, the reward increases.
