A musical artwork written to be experienced by moving through space, “Composition for a Public Park” is a large-scale, multi-lingual musical artwork by artist and musician Hassan Khan, featuring multi-channel music and spoken narrative. Unfolding in three simultaneous movements, and composed especially for a public park, the scale and diversity of the work is experienced as you walk through the Jaddaf Waterfront Sculpture Park. At the heart of each movement is a spoken libretto, written by Khan and presented here in three languages; Arabic, Urdu and English.
