Jordi Savall is a humanist musician. With Jerusalem, The City of Two Peaces, he proves it unerringly by taking the listener once again on travels of a spiritual nature. “This subject,” he states, “allowed us to demonstrate high and loud the greatness and madness of the history of a city, with all the problems of a place that still today shows us the limits and weaknesses of our civilization, especially in view of the pursuit of a peace that is just and viable for all, and the difficulty for East and West to agree on the very foundation of the spritual dimension of man.
The recording is made up of seven parts, a highly symbolic figure:
I. Heavenly Peace: The Prophecies of the Apocalypse and of the Last Judgment.
II. Jerusalem, Jewish city, 1000 B.C. – 70 A.C..
III. Jerusalem, Christian city, 326 – 1244.
IV. Jerusalem, City of pilgrimages, 383 – 1326.
V. Jerusalem, Arab and Ottoman city, 1244 – 1917.
VI. Jerusalem, land of refuge and exile, XV century – XX century.
VII. Terrestral peace: a hope and a duty.
Surrounded by singer soloists, narraters, the Capella Reial de Catalunya, the Hesperion XXI, the Trumpets of Jericho, but also invited musicians from Israel, Palestine, Armenia, Greece, Irak, Syria, Turkey, Marocco and Afghanistan, Jordi Savall offers us the most beautiful message of peace of all, one that makes the poet say, ” Music that leads to peace engenders a communion between the heart and the spirit. This communion is an act of love peopled with contradictions wherein all desires mix to give life to humanity. This song is one of loneliness. This music is one of love. All this is a universe of eternity… .
