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.
