Persival
Second Movement Of the Composition "Fool..."
     

"Searching" - (Nostalgia, Dreaming, Nerosis)

Persival, named for the most desperate seeker in European mythology, is a sitar performance that mimics the questing hero in its tonal exploration: at moments hesitant and neurotic, at others rash and unthinking, yet always intensely intellectual in perspective. The musical whole, however, is paradoxically enough a smoothly paced raga that brings the search to climactic and potent closure.
