Various Artists

In Chinese Turkestan, the ancient brotherhood of the Naqshbandi Sufis perform the zikr, an Islamic ‘calling to God’ built upon wordless chanting. Jean During was allowed to record this rarely witnessed ritual of deep contemplation and inspired dancing. In Morocco, the Ganawa brotherhood performs a leela-serene and healing nights of music and trance. The pulsing bass of the guimbri and the chattering percussion of qaraqsh that accompany these rituals embody the spirit which lured musicians like Jimi Hendrix and Ornette Coleman to Morocco. In Bali, at a Hindu temple festival, the hypnotic pulsing of the gamelan - a bevy of gongs, metallophones and cymbals - drives participants into trance to perform ngurek, a frenzied ritual where trancers stab at themselves with long daggers. Includes 64-page hardback book.
