About Gospodi - I am the light

Gospodi – The Light Of Christ is a collaborative studio album released in 1997. The recording pairs Austrian composer and multi-instrumentalist Felix Maria Woschek with Indian classical musician Ustad Sultan Khan. The album emerged as a fusion of Western sacred music traditions and Hindustani classical elements.

The release adopts a CD format under an unspecified label. The sole track, titled Gospodi – I am the light, occupies the entire runtime of 33 minutes and 17 seconds. The composition integrates Khan’s sarangi performance with Woschek’s vocal and instrumental arrangements, though specific production details and additional contributing artists remain undocumented.

The album title references Gospodi, a Slavonic term for \"Lord\" often associated with Eastern Christian liturgical music. The track structure suggests an extended meditative or devotional form, blending textual and melodic motifs from Christian and Indian spiritual traditions. No further information exists regarding live performances, alternate editions, or subsequent reissues of the work.

Ustad Sultan Khan (1940–2011) contributed as a sarangi virtuoso and vocalist, recognized for his role in popularizing the instrument in cross-genre collaborations. Felix Maria Woschek, active in sacred and world music projects, composed and likely arranged the album’s material. The release date of 1997 places it within a period of growing interest in East-West musical synthesis, though its reception and commercial performance remain unrecorded in available sources.
