TAFELMUSIK BAROQUE ORCHESTRA Renowned for its dynamic, engaging, and soulful performances, Tafelmusik is one of the world’s leading period-instrument ensembles, performing on instruments and in styles appropriate for the era of the music. Tafelmusik seeks to transport audiences to the Baroque and Classical periods through adventurous cross-cultural collaborations. Last season Tafelmusik welcomed Elisa Citterio as Music Director, only the second Music Director in their history, replacing Music Director Emerita Jeanne Lamon. As Canada’s most widely traveled orchestra, Tafelmusik has performed in over 350 cities in 32 countries. Proudly based in Toronto, Tafelmusik performs some 80 concerts each year for a loyal and enthusiastic audience in diverse venues across the city, often joined by the critically acclaimed Tafelmusik Chamber Choir and its director, Ivars Taurins.

Working to share their knowledge and experience, Tafelmusik’s musicians offer artist-training initiatives, such as the Tafelmusik Baroque Summer and Winter Institutes. Their recordings on the Sony, CBC Records, Analekta, and Tafelmusik Media labels have garnered nine JUNOs and numerous international recording prizes. www.tafelmusik.org

Tales of Two Cities: The Leipzig-Damascus Coffee House is a celebration in music, words, and images of eighteenth-century culture in two fascinating cities. Though separated by 3,000 kilometers, Leipzig and Damascus had a number of characteristics in common. Both lay at the crossroads of ancient commercial routes and became important centers for international trade fairs.

Leipzig lay at the intersection of the Via Regia (the east-west route from Santiago de Compostela in Spain to Kiev and Moscow) and the Via Imperii (the north-south route from Rome and Venice to the Baltic Sea). Merchants from many countries converged on Leipzig three times a year, bringing furs, wines, textiles, and books to be sold at trade fairs that were among the most famous in Europe.

Damascus lay at the intersection of the Via Maris, which linked the Mediterranean Sea with Syria, Iraq, Iran, and the Far East, and the north-south route from Turkey to Yemen and the Arabian Sea. Important trade fairs were established for the sale of silks, jewels, and coffee from the Levant and the Far East.

Leipzig and Damascus were also both famous centers of scholarship and learning. Leipzig was a vital center for book publishing and the dissemination of ideas. Its university was one of the oldest in Europe, attracting students and scholars of theology, philosophy, and law from all over Germany.

NOTESProgram Notes by Alison Mackay

TRIO ARABICA Trio Arabica (also known as Al Qahwa Ensemble) features Maryem Tollar on vocals, qanun, and percussion; Demetri Petsalakis on oud; and Naghmeh Farahmand on percussion. They perform traditional songs from Arabic classical and popular repertoire, including folk songs from Syria, Egypt, and Iraq, and songs from the Muwashah tradition, where devotional poetry is set to exquisite melodies and hypnotic rhythms which Maryem learned in Aleppo, Syria.


The ancient city of Damascus, which had been conquered by the Ottoman Turks in 1516, was a cosmopolitan hub of intellectual activity. Scholars speaking Arabic, Persian, and Greek used the services of the city’s scribes for their treatises on medicine, astronomy, and philosophy.

Leipzig and Damascus had another striking feature in common: they both enjoyed a lively tradition of coffee houses in which the finest musicians of the city performed. The autobiographical writings of Georg Phillip Telemann recount how he began to direct a music club called the Collegium Musicum for the students at Leipzig University in the early years of the eighteenth century. In 1702, the first public streetlights were installed in the city, making it possible for respectable people to be out after dark. Coffee houses soon became destinations for refreshments, conversation, and entertainment, and the student musicians began to perform at several local establishments.

In 1729 the Collegium Musicum was taken over by Johann Sebastian Bach, who directed weekly concerts for the patrons of Zimmerman’s Coffeehouse. He supplemented the ensemble of student performers with members of his family, visiting virtuosi, and Stadtpfeiffers — elite performers from the town band. The repertoire by Telemann, Handel, and Bach included in tonight’s concert is typical of the music performed there.

The public coffee houses of Damascus were also venues for famous musicians who performed instrumental doulabs, improvised taqsims, and settings of strophic poems called “muwashshahs,” forms of classical Arabic music that are the specialty of our guest ensemble, Trio Arabica.

Our performance includes the telling of a story about a destitute migrant, a tale told by Scheherazade in some manuscript collections of the Arabian Nights. It originates as a moral tale in a work now known as the Mirror for Princes by the medieval Islamic philosopher Al-Ghazali. A copy of this work from the collection of an eighteenth-century Syrian coffee-house storyteller named Ahmad al-Rabbat may be found in the library of the University of Leipzig.


Verses from a poem attributed to Al-Ghazali, who was highly esteemed in Damascus, decorate the exquisite room that has inspired our theatrical set piece. It is a room with exuberant Islamic designs and baroque European influences which was brought from Damascus to the Ethnological Museum in Dresden in 1899.

In its original setting, this room would have been a place for relaxation, for business, and for cross-cultural encounters over coffee. The dividing lines between the ancient communities of Muslims, Jews, and Christians who had been part of the fabric of Damascus for centuries were blurred, and the beautiful calligraphy around the room, which avoids overtly religious content, betrays a desire to make visitors from other traditions feel welcome in the house. In the present time, when so many Syrians are making new homes in Germany, the people of Leipzig and newcomers from Damascus are seeking similarly creative ways to accommodate and enrich each others’ cultures in their new and challenging reality. In the process of restoring the Damascus Room in nearby Dresden, young Syrian scholars are being trained by German mentors in the restoration of the historical interiors of their homeland. It is their and our dream that they will one day be able to practice their art and enjoy coffee and music in a peaceful Damascus.

Program NotesContinued

Badat Min al Khidri

She appeared from the tent in a temple of lightShe shines over the moon and puts the moons to shameFrom her saliva comes drunkenness and her mouth causes intoxication.Come back O cup bearer, let us pass the cupsO fill up, O my friend, how beautiful it is to drink with nice companionsShe was plentiful but not avaricious to give from the world of lights.

Yamul ‘Uyoun Issoud

I am mesmerized with your black eyes — Your golden complexion bewitched our hearts.

She came out with her pretty rose dressand the sun hid when she came out.Her figure sways like a branch in the breeze —She walks slowly as if she’s flying slightly above the ground.

She stands at the door crying out “Oh mercy” — I am not crazy and my mind is sound.From behind the oven she gives me a loaf of breadThe loaf from the pretty one would last for a year.Who needs food if he is close to her?

Ya Malikan

You who own my heart, you who have stolen my sleep,Until when will you deny my love? Enough of this persistence!I adore you — why do you torture me?You are the one I seek and want,Reward me with your closeness and love.Until when will you keep your distance?


TRANSLATIONS OF ARABIC SONGS


Afdihi in Hafidhal Hawa Ow Diya’a

My life is yours whether your love is there or I have lost it.You own my heart — what else can I do?He who did not taste his lover’s cruelty as sweetnessLived in ignorance of true love and pretended.You with the pretty face have withered the beautiful patience.Is there mercy in your heart for someone who adores youAnd whose heart is aching?Is there a way to show you my loveOr to tell you of my agony, or plead?I feel too shy to plead with you as you got me used to doing.I do it only because I want your approval.

Tala’a Min Beyt Abouha

Going from her father’s house to the neighbor’s houseShe passed me without greeting me. Maybe the pretty one was upset.I said, “Sweet one, quench my thirst, give me a drink of water.”She said, “Go away, poor soul — our water will not quench your thirst.”I told her, “Sweet one, quench my thirst, show me your figure.”She said, “Go away, poor soul, my figure is like a stem of basil.”I told her, “Sweet one, quench my thirst — show me your eyes.”She said, “Go away, poor soul, my eyes are those of a gazelle.”I told her, “Sweet one, quench my thirst — show me your cheeks.”She said, “Go away poor soul, my cheeks are like that of a pomegranate.”

BRINGING MUSIC TO LIFEBringing Music to Life Presents

2019 Instrument Drive, March 11-23 From March 11th through the 23rd, Bringing Music to Life will hold their 2019 Instrument Drive, collecting donations of gently-used band and orchestra instruments that will be repaired and awarded to deserving music programs throughout the state. It has been proven time and again that learning to play an instrument can have a profound, positive impact on a child, teaching valuable life skills as well as boosting confidence and self-esteem.

Over the past eight instrument drives, more than 4,200 instruments have been awarded to more than 200 elementary, middle and high schools throughout the state. But there are still many more children who want to learn to play but can't afford to rent or buy an instrument. If you have an instrument you can donate, please do so beginning March 11th. Even if you don't have an instrument, you can help by contributing to Bringing Music to Life's repair fund. $155 is all it takes to repair a donated instrument and put it in the hands of a child. Complete information about the upcoming drive, including drop off locations, is available at www.bringmusic.org.
