Description: This work written for the Persian Ney (similar to a Western Recorder) and orchestra borrows its title from a poem by Sohrab Sepehri. “I must depart tonight/ Taking a suitcase,/ (the size of my loneliness),/ I must go,/ where the mythical trees are in sight./ Toward that endless plain,/ that always,/ is calling me to itself.” Movements: 1. Prelude: Ya Cahe Zolmát (The Abyss); 2. Sámâ (Ecstatic Dance); Interlude: Bárgásht (Return [to the Abyss]); 3. Foroud vá Fánâ (Descent and Dissolve).
