Lalo Schifrin Ascends on the First Day of the New Year


The first crescent moon of Muharram rose, marking the start of the Islamic New Year — a moment for reflection, remembrance, and quiet renewal.

And that very day, the world lost a master: Lalo Schifrin.
Composer, conductor, cinematic disruptor.
The man who made tension groove and danger swing.

His track Dirty Harry (Latin Soul) isn't just a theme — it's a philosophy:
Fate with a backbeat. Judgment in rhythm. Justice, but syncopated.
It was 1972. Lalo gave the law a new soundtrack — and it still hits like prophecy.

As a new spiritual cycle begins, so does Lalo’s journey beyond.
Two passages — one of time, one of soul — aligned.

Let us not mourn in silence. Let us begin the year
with that relentless, holy groove Lalo carved into the cosmos.

Play it loud. Begin again.
