SYNOPSIS
An Iranian man sits in a hotel room in Canada, writing his morning prayers.
MUSIC DESCRIPTION
Long chords in the piano and slow, pensive singing alternate with brisk, stirring sections and fragmented vocal lines—a reflection of the stop-start nature of this scene, as a young man struggles to write a letter. Improvisations on Daf, an Iranian frame drum, set the scene.
