The idea for this piece came in a conversation with my Afghan friend, Gulwali Passarlay, in which he was expressing the hope that people would continue to think about Afghanistan and to remember, violent political upheaval aside, what an incredibly rich, beautiful and ancient culture this country has.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart of this wonderful culture are the centuries-old, mythical tales, often with a moral message, that have been passed down through many generations. The Faithful Gazelle tells of a Beggar raised to riches by a magical Gazelle, only to lose everything again when she becomes sick and he ignores her pleas for help.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe clarinet with its enormous scope of timbre and pitch seemed the perfect vehicle for the Gazelle and the cello a gruff, then majestic, then gruff again Beggar!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI am deeply grateful to West Cork Chamber Festival for commissioning this work and to clarinettist Matt Hunt and the Signum Quartet for working so patiently on it, with me. Also to Gulwali Passarlay and specialist Afghan musicologists John Baily, Katherine St John and Dr Lloyd Miller for sharing their immense knowledge and love of Afghan music and culture.\nRoxanna Panufnik, 31 January 2022\u003c\/p\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Edition Peters","offers":[{"title":"Score \u0026 Set of Parts","offer_id":42659418112135,"sku":"EP73642","price":102.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Score \u0026 Set of Parts - Digital Download","offer_id":44757645721735,"sku":"PET.51124","price":102.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8635\/5591\/files\/a9c71c7245e1b40802ace19444af0cb0.jpg?v=1750716145","url":"https:\/\/www.editionpeterspublications.us\/ja\/products\/panufnik-the-faithful-gazelle-peters","provider":"Edition Peters Publications","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
