Recitation of The Call To Prayers - SLSC Presents The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace Choral Suite

Presented by the Salt Lake Symphonic Choir and conducted by Erin Pike Tall, Karl Jenkin's The Armed Man: A Mass for Peace includes The Call to Prayers. With Islam the predominant religion in Kosovo, the suite opens with the Moslem Call to Prayers (Adhan), connecting the audience with each other and with God. For the performance of Jenkin's Suite, this was recited by Sadam Rahmani. The Adhan (Call to Prayer) services both a spiritual and communal function--reminding belivers to pause, take a break and reconnect with God.
