Preface: This piece “brings out the contrast between the 'little' flute and the 'monumental' organ, with reference to the lines from the Magnificat: 'He hath put down the mighty from thier seat and hath exalted the humble and meek'. The title of the piece can be explained as follows. 'Ain Karim' is the name of the place near Jerusalem where Mary, mother of Jesus, probably visited her cousin Elisabeth and spoke the words of the Magnificat.” – Daniel Roth
