黑非洲:伊图里雨林的姆布蒂俾格米人音乐 豆瓣
Smithsonian Folkways
发布日期 1991年1月1日 出版发行: FOLKWAYS
专辑介绍:
非洲中部,扎伊尔东北的伊图里(Ituri)热带雨林地区,是一个多种族分布的区域。
几百年来,北面的尼格罗苏丹人、南面的班图族人以及一些其他种族纷纷入住这片雨林。
而与他们截然不同的,是伊图里雨林的原住民——姆布蒂俾格米人(Mbuti pygmies)。
Mbuti俾格米人的音乐,长于声乐而鲜见器乐。
其复调性的声乐特点具有高度的复杂性,常令研究者既困惑又神往。
这也是俾格米人音乐的共同特点之一。
人类学家Colin Turnbull(1924-1994),
在20世纪50年代曾多次考察伊图里雨林的Mbuti俾格米人的文化生活。
但一开始,他并没有深入到丛林里,而只是在外围的村落考察。
当Turnbull于1954年再次来到伊图里地区,
俾格米人发现他对他们的音乐兴趣浓厚,于是建议他到丛林中去,考察他们"真正的"音乐。
于是,便有了1957年和1958年的两张唱片——
这两张由美国老牌民族音乐厂牌FOLKWAYS出版的黑胶唱片,
记录了Mbuti俾格米人音乐的方方面面,是非洲俾格米人音乐的经典录音。
这里发布的CD版本于1991年发行,是这两张唱片的选集,曲目主要来自后一张。
这张唱片从Mbuti人围猎大象的狩猎音乐开始,
然后进入一个村落,记录了Mbuti人的班图族入会仪式音乐,
最后回到雨林,以Mbuti人自己的仪式音乐结束。
唱片忠实展现了黑非洲密林深处那原始而瑰丽的音乐图景,奇妙又不乏梦幻色彩。
Colin Turnbull出版过一系列的人类学著作。
其中最有名的,便是关于他数次考察伊图里雨林的《the forest people》(1961年出版)。
Triplicate 豆瓣
Bob Dylan 类型: 摇滚
发布日期 2017年3月31日 出版发行: Columbia
Triplicate, is the new three disc studio album from Bob Dylan. The collection features 30 brand-new recordings of classic American tunes and marking the first triple-length set of the artist's illustrious career. With each disc individually titled and presented in a thematically-arranged 10-song sequence, Triplicate showcases Dylan's unique and much-lauded talents as a vocalist, arranger and bandleader on 30 compositions by some of music's most lauded and influential songwriters. The Jack Frost-produced album is the 38th studio set from Bob Dylan and marks the first new music from the artist since Fallen Angels, which was released in early 2016.
For Triplicate, Dylan assembled his touring band in Hollywood's Capitol studios to record hand-chosen songs from an array of American songwriters such as Charles Strouse and Lee Adams ("Once Upon A Time"), Harold Arlen and Ted Koehler ("Stormy Weather"), Harold Hupfield ("As Time Goes By") and Cy Coleman and Carolyn Leigh ("The Best Is Yet To Come"). The titles of the individual discs are 'Til The Sun Goes Down, Devil Dolls and Comin' Home Late. According to Bob Dylan, "I am finding these great songs to be a tremendous source of inspiration that has led me to one of my most satisfying periods in the studio. I've hit upon new ways to uncover and interpret these songs that are right in line with the best recordings of my own songs, and my band and I really seemed to hit our stride on every level with Triplicate."
Dylan's two previous album of classic American songs, 2016's Fallen Angels and 2015's Shadows in the Night, were both worldwide hits and garnered Grammy Award nominations in the category of Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. Both albums received worldwide critical acclaim, with Randy Lewis writing of Fallen Angels in The Los Angeles Times, "[Dylan] immediately liberates songs from the big band/big orchestra world from which they emerged, and in which they are most frequently revisited…. [He] reaches to the blues at the core of many of these songs. Thus, they elicit the ache of romantic yearning and loss that often gets subsumed by swelling orchestral forces, background choirs or by singers who are more focused on crafting elegant vocals than finding emotional resonance." The Telegraph's Neil McCormick awarded Shadows in the Night five out of five stars and described the work as "spooky, bittersweet, mesmerizingly moving [with] the best singing from Dylan in 25 years." Jon Pareles wrote of that album in the New York Times, "Mr. Dylan presents yet another changed voice…a subdued, sustained tone….Shadows in the Night maintains its singular mood: lovesick, haunted, suspended between an inconsolable present and all the regrets of the past."
Bob Dylan has sold more than 125 million records around the world.
