Description
What does the Lotus Effect have to do with modal structures and prosodic forms of ancient Armenian sacred music? Tigran Mansurian attempts to fathom these mysteries – the magical plant with its unique qualities, and the magnificence of ‘material folds’ in Armenian music – in his Ode to the Lotus. The mystic sound of the viola seemed to him the most appropriate tonal medium for this purpose.
