About Kyrie - I am the light
Gospodi – The Light of Christ is a 1997 studio album that blends Indian classical music with Western sacred choral traditions. The release features a collaboration between Austrian composer and vocalist Felix Maria Woschek and Indian sarangi virtuoso Ustad Sultan Khan. The album appeared on CD through an unspecified label, with distribution details remaining unconfirmed in available sources.
The third track, Kyrie – I am the light, runs 23 minutes and 40 seconds. The composition integrates Sultan Khan’s sarangi improvisations with Woschek’s vocal delivery of liturgical texts, merging Hindustani classical phrasing with Gregorian and Byzantine chant influences. The piece exemplifies the album’s fusion of devotional themes across cultural boundaries, though specific recording locations or session musicians beyond the two primary artists are not documented.
Critical reception and commercial performance of Gospodi – The Light of Christ are not widely recorded. The album’s format and tracklist suggest an emphasis on extended meditative works, with Kyrie – I am the light serving as a central example of the project’s cross-cultural experimentation.
