the projectSüleyman the Magnificent is the soundtrack
for the film of the same name which focuses on the life of the great
Sultan of the Ottoman empire. Sultan Süleyman reigned from 1520-1566
and was renowned as a consummate reformer of law and administration.
His was a golden age of art and architecture. Brian Keane's soundtrack
embodies this historic sense of greatness and splendor. The music
is at once exciting and profound. Keane has brilliantly scored traditional
Turkish melodies and his own original melodies from a combination
of authentic Turkish instruments. These instruments include the tanbur
(long necked lute), daire (drum), kanun (plucked
boxed zither), and kaval (rim-blown flute—a pastoral
instrument associated with shepherds and nomads). The film aired on
the PBS network and was a winner of the American Film Festival and
the Ohio State Film Festival awards. It was produced in conjunction
with the opening of an art exhibit at the National Gallery of Art
in Washington, D.C. for which major funding for the film was provided
by the Republic of Turkey.
