يا قدس و يا صبيه قصه حب و حريه 
بعدك صارو الاغاني سيف وقلم وهويه 
ولو دار الزمن دار ووردك شبك نار 
وحصار جوا حصار لو تسألو الحجار 
كل ولد حافي صار يحمل بيت وقضيه 
كرمالك يا عروس النار يا حلوه يا صبيه 
يا قدس ويا صبيه 
ولو ضاع الحق وغاب وانكتب العزاب 
من قلوب ودمع ولاد يلي انغمس بتراب 
ما ينسى حجر الباب ولا وراق الزيتون 
من رمل و بحر ولون عيون منردك يا صبيه 

يا قدسُ يا صبيه قصه حب و حريه 
بعدك صارو الاغاني سيف وقلم وهويه 

ولو خنقوا الهوا بخيوط ولو يعصروا الياقوت 
ما يموت لا ما يموت لي فداكي يا صبيه 
وبالبال تبقى بيوت وعلى الصخر منحوت 
حدودك وسماكي و ارضك عربيه 
يا قدس ويا صبيه

يا قدس و يا صبيه

أنا سوري وفخور

مليت خدني عالبيت

Sheherezade
Once upon a time, long ago, there was a brave, smart and charming young woman. She was the daughter of the King’s Prime Minister, and her name was Sheherezade. She possessed the most enchanting voice. People would come from afar to listen to her tell the most captivating stories. 

The Arab King at the time was a mad ruler. He would choose a young woman to marry every night, and at the end of each night, he would send his new wife to be beheaded. Eventually, 3,000 women were killed by the hands of the Arab King. “No woman should ever be trusted,” he would say.

Sheherezade heard about what the King was doing, and one day decided, she would spend a night with the King. Her father objected, but she insisted. She believed that she could put a stop to the killings and wanted to save the rest of the women. She spent the whole night telling the King a story. The King was so enchanted, he asked to hear the ending, but it was the end of the night. Sheherezade told him he will need to wait until the next night to hear the ending. Excitingly, Sheherezade was able to escape the King’s intent to kill her. 

The next night, she finished the story and began a new one, stopping again at the break of dawn. She told the King again, he would need to wait until the next night to hear the ending. Night after night, Sheherezade repeated this storytelling until 1001 nights had passed. She had told him 1001 stories from Aladdin, to Ali Babba, to Sinbad. 

On the 1002 night, Sheherezade ran out of stories to tell to distract the King from wanting to kill her. But the King had changed over this time with Sheherezade. He fell in love with her, and listening to her stories allowed him to grow wiser, more patient, and more kind. The King married Sheherezade and they had three children.

The great composer, Rimsky Korsakov, in his famous ballet, “Sheherezad”, used the violin to portray the voice of Sheherezade and horns to portray the voice of the King. He told the Sheherezade story with music in a wildly imaginative way using many interesting instrumental and orchestral techniques.

This is my own original musical piece and my own interpretation of Sheherezade! I’ve always loved the Sheherezade story and was also inspired by the incredible work of Korsakov. In this piece, I used improvisation as a tool to portray Sheherezade’s voice, mimicking the long suspenseful narrations of the stories she would tell. I also used traditional Middle Eastern instruments, rhythms, and scales, to tell the story in my own way that I’ve always imagined.

Do you hear Sherehezade’s voice?

Do you hear the voice of the mad King at first threatening to kill her, and then being seduced by her stories?

Do you hear the voice of Sheherezade’s maid helping her to plan and weave the tales she would tell the King?

Can you hear and identify the time period and environment this music depicts?
Listen and let Sheherezade enchant and take you with her!

يوم جديد

يوم جديد-يزن الهجري

1: Moderate -Allegretto: 0:00
2: Andante: 3:04
3: Allegretto- Allegro vivace : 3:56
4: Coda : 5:35

compose and orchestrated by Yazan AL Hajari 
performed and recorded by Budapest scoring Orchestra.

Instrumentation: 
2 Flutes, 2 Oboes, 2 Clarinets in Bb, Bass Clarinet, 2 Bassoons, 4 Horns in F, 3 Trumpets in C, 3 Tenor Trombones, 1 Tuba, Cymbals, Timpani, glockenspiel , triangle, tambourine, snare Drum, Harp, Strings (12-10-8-6-4)

 Note:
The orchestral works are a voyage into my mind and a diary of my emotions and thoughts. Sometimes they are raw, sentimental, and nostalgic, but other times calm and grounded. They are the fruit of years of dedication, work, and daydreams.
This particular work has four movements expressing the complicated, chaotic, but also edgy and rich feelings that I have had in the past year.
The main tango theme was taken from an original song that I wrote before orchestrating it. I expanded the composition by using classical compositional techniques such as motif and thematic material development.

1:Prelude 0:00
2:Allegro: 1:43
3:Adagio: 2:40
4:Nocturne: 3:10
5:Waltz: 4:00

compose and orchestrated by Yazan AL Hajari 
performed and recorded by Budapest scoring Orchestra.

Instrumentation: 
2 Flutes, 2 Oboes, 2 Clarinets in Bb, 2 Bassoons, 4 Horns in F, 3 Trumpets in C, 3 Tenor Trombones, 1 Tuba, Timpani, Cymbals, snare Drum, Harp, Celesta, piano, Strings (12-10-8-6-4)

Note:
This work 2 begins with a prelude, establishing an opening mood that leads into different musical forms such as a nocturne, adagio, and allegro, and ends with a waltz. This is to explore the possibilities, richness of sounds and imagery of the orchestra through a narrative that connects the music in five movements, through a dramatic form.
Suite No. 2 is another chapter in my musical diary, concentrating its attention on explorations of orchestral colors and dialogue, representing initial themes and motifs and then developing them in a variety of ways throughout the movements, setting sonic environments and trading materials between the orchestra's instruments and sections, reaching build-ups and climaxes.

من وقت ل شفتك شغلت عيوني 
بنسى المواعيد بخلق اعذار
وصحابي عرفوا قالوا ونصحوني
اللي بيبدا جنّة بيخلص نار
  
يا قلبي اهدى اهدى ولا تكشف اسراري 
يا وقت اوقف لحظه تا رتِّب افكاري 
يا عيون حاج تلوحي يميني وشمالي   
معقول شو انا عم بحلم او يمكن حبّيت؟
 
مش عم تخلص ضحكاتي ولا عم توقف بسماتي
هلق بحسّوا عليّ وبقولوا عم بخوت ويمكن جنّيت
يمكن حبّيت 
يمكن يمكن جنّيت 
 
يا قلبي اهدى اهدى واوقف لحظة 
ويمكن يمكن انا حبّيت 

شو يلّي عم بدور ببالو؟
بظهر شعوري ولا بخفيه؟
وإزا مرّة مرقت ولوحدي قبالو 
بتبيِّن حركشة فيه؟

معقول عم يتردَّد او انا عم بتسرَّع 
او يمكن حدا بباله 
او حاسه عم يتسمَّع؟

يا قلبي اهدى اهدى ولا تكشف اسراري 
يا وقت اوقف لحظه تا رتِّب افكاري 
يا عيون حاج تلوحي يميني وشمالي   
معقول انا عم بحلم او يمكن حبّيت؟

مش عم بكفّي ليلي و لا عم بكفّي نهاري
طلعت من البيت فلّيت
وضلّوا جوّا المفاتيح وفاضي البيت
يمكن حبّيت 
يمكن يمكن جنّيت 
   
يا قلبي اهدى اهدى واوقف لحظة
ويمكن يمكن انا حبّيت

يا قلبي اهدى اهدى ولا تكشف اسراري 
يا وقت اوقف لحظه تا رتِّب افكاري 
يا عيون حاج تلوحي يميني وشمالي  
معقول انا عم بحلم او يمكن حبّيت
لا يمكن جنّيت لا يمكن جنّيت

مارح قلا

This is for you Syria, for your struggle, melancholy, wounds and your wild bloody roses
for your freedom, for your tired restless eyes and heavy grey skies
this is for your silent  stones and your curved fragile houses,

this is the story of you Syria ,a story of me,
a story of both of us ..a story of death and birth and every gleams in between 
 
music and songs only !
but more than that, a skin I want you to wear,
a drug I want to you to swallow 
sins in heavens  in air 
a wind to carry and follow  
a hope to keep in despair 
a faith to hold in tomorrow 
and a sea I want you to measure 
for a smile in front of death
and a laughter in the face of fear 
for a hope in the face of misery,
a melody in the face of darkness 
to rise against death, to hold a fire in a hand 
in lands of ache and sorrow 
this is for you Syria
its my heart in sounds 
its my blood in waves 
from yesterday's agony
from yesterday's pain 
from yesterday's hell
it's music for tomorrow .
