Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi, whose life and mystical poetry provided
the inspiration for the Mevlevi Sufi order, is one of the world's
best-known poets, yet the centuries-long musical tradition
cultivated by the Mevleviye remains much less known. In this deeply
researched book, renowned scholar Walter Feldman traces the
historical development of Mevlevi music and brings to light the
remarkable musical and mystical aesthetics of the Mevlevi ayin the
instrumental and vocal accompaniment to the sublime ceremony of the
'Whirling' Dervishes.
