Like the Japanese geisha, the qiyan were highly skilled in music, poetry, the arts in general, and wrote a large amount of surviving medieval Arabic poetry. As a result, during the pre-modern Islamist women's society, they were regarded as the highest order of slaves. The region of Al-Andalusia experienced its golden age under the Córdoba Caliphate (929-1031), when the economy and culture flourished universally. The Córdoba Caliphate was generally characterized by it’s religious and cultural tolerance: this was true for the Jews as well as for many of the Christians who had converted to Islam. At this time a distinct musical tradition developed in Al-Andalusia from the melodic treasures of the qiyan trained in Medina, Baghdad and Córdoba. It continued as an artistic form even after the abolition of slavery.
The band Qiyan draws on the incredibly rich Arab-Jewish musical output of this period and celebrates the artistic contribution of an enslaved people. This large ensemble was created by the bassist Péter Ajtai (AMP, Akosh. S. Trio, Baló Project, Geröly Trio, Aram Shelton Quartet and others.), and the album will be his debut as a leader.
Featuring:
Péter Ajtai - double bass
Ákos Szelevényi - saxophone
Dániel Cseke - saxophone
Ádám Mészáros - guitar
