Tan Dun (b. 1957) - Violin Concerto ‘Fire Ritual’: A music ritual for the Victims of War (2018)


The violin concerto Fire Ritual – ‘a music ritual for the Victims of War’ – was written for and premièred by Eldbjørg Hemsing. The musical narrative is divided into four parts: Cruel Wars, Innocent People, Mantras of the Heavenly Birds and Eternity. These four themes create a musical ceremony for the victims of war, for those who have suffered through human history, and a prayer for eternal peace.

Fire Ritual unfolds and extends from a single note D (‘re’ on the solfège scale) - Re is a prefix used with the meaning ‘again’: REnew, REstart, REsurrect… As a ritual and ceremonial rite, the work is centred on the note ‘re’, calling for the REturn of souls and the REbirth of all victims of war so that they may RElive another life, and love once more.
