| From Robert Fripp's online diary
Thursday 27th. January, 2005 12.46 DGM HQ. May the consequences of my actions visit me swiftly and as much as I can bear. In this morning's e-box, a letter from Jason Elliot. Jason is the author of An Unexpected Light, on his journeying in Afghanistan, and son of Pierre & Vivien. We re-met at Pierre's recent flying-away service & discussed a building Jason has discovered in Persia (ie Iran) while researching his current book. A note on the theme of the monument I mentioned. 
This 'discovery', along with one or two others, fills me with a private kind of excitement, but I am not at all sure who I may be able to usefully share it with, or to what purpose. But in brief: in northern Iran stands a celebrated tower, built entirely from brick and dating from the twelfth century, which commemorates the rule of a local monarch. It is generally thought of as a sort of folly, and indeed rather resembles an English one, though it is far more ancient and generally held up as an architectural marvel and something of an anomaly, if not a work of genius. I attach a photo I took. But that is about all, conventionally. It is publicly accessible but, being empty inside, is not used for anything at present. However... even from the exterior, the configuration of the structure reveals an advanced understanding of acoustics. At a distinct point about twenty metres from the entrance, one's voice is unmistakably reflected to one's ears, as though amplified, in a most disturbing (to me!) fashion; and inside - well, yes, it's empty, but what an emptiness! I'd often wondered, from a distance as it were, what the place might have been for. And last year, when I was visiting for the second time, out of curiosity I sang the lines from La Boheme when Rodolfo seizes Mimi's freezing hand in the darkness... and it knocked my socks off. The sound generated was truly extraordinary. I might have been Pavarotti. My voice was taken upwards, swirled around, and returned, resonant and purified. I was with two friends; we froze on the spot. I had never heard such sound. It is very hard to describe; a real voice would have sounded heavenly. It really went into our bones, and left us stunned. Nothing I have heard came close to it. The latest digital mixer couldn't have done a more sublime job. It dawned on me then that such acoustic genius could not have been accidentally created, and I am convinced that the building was used for musical sessions long ago. There is nothing inside but a circular stone platform at the base, where people used to sit; and suddenly it took on new meaning. So, my experience there confirms what I have encountered in writing about Iran and aspects of Persian culture; namely that in essence Persian music is all connected with the idea of Paradise and its intimations here on Earth; and they knew how to make you feel you've died and gone to Heaven. Until recently there was no such thing as 'popular' Persian music as this was confined to the (formerly) royal and intellectual elite. But to mention the very word 'music' is problematic in the sense of what music is designed to achieve, since we are mostly trained to think of music as a sort of recreation. And it strikes me as likely that the building in question was used as a musical forum. The only comparable site I know personally is Thoronet Abbey near Provence, which demonstrates exceptional resonance. Such things are seldom accidental; but the European dimension has been competently investigated already. There is another structure in Isfahan where the elaborate, hollowed out spaces in the walls have been put forward as resonating chambers, again for royal musical sessions. The point is that the people of the era knew what they were doing. I am sure one day the tower's acoustic/harmonic properties will be rediscovered, and people will flock there. But not quite yet. Meantime, everyone from Caruso to Sting can eat their hearts out because for a moment I sounded better than all of them......... | ||
