Op dat vlak had Pickett, een ervaren veteraan van de oude muziek en de historische uitvoeringspraktijk, natuurlijk al uitgebreid zijn sporen verdiend, zowel in zijn werk met het New London Consort als met de Musicians of the Globe. Met Sharona Joshua op renaissance klavierinstrumenten (virginaal, klavichord, regaal,…), Pickett zelf op allerlei blaasinstrumenten (kromhoorn, schalmei, blokfluit,…) en violist Pavlo Beznosiuk had de cd alle troeven om de beginselvaste oude muziekliefhebber te overtuigen. Maar Picketts naam prijkt op de cd-hoes broederlijk naast die van folkrock-legende Richard Thompson, die samen met de ‘Fairport Rhythm Section’ een heel andere toets toevoegt: een zinderende elektrische gitaar, geruggesteund door een trio dat de kern van iedere rockgroep weerspiegelt: ritmegitaar, bas en drums. Diezelfde beginselvaste oude muziekliefhebber die bij het begin van de eerste track nog het vertrouwde, ‘authentieke’ renaissance-klankbeeld hoorde, zal na een halve minuut bruut uit zijn stoel opveren wanneer de ritmesectie invalt en Richard Thompson de melodielijnen op elektrische gitaar in dialoog met de historische instrumenten begint te spelen. Nochtans is die combinatie geen echte verrassing te noemen voor wie vertrouwd is met de carrières van Pickett en Thompson. Richard Thompson begon zijn carrière al op zeer jonge leeftijd als gitarist bij de legendarische Britse folkrockgroep Fairport Convention, waarvoor hij ook zijn eerste eigen nummers schreef. De mengeling van folk-, blues- en rockelementen bij Fairport werkt Thompson in zijn rijk gevulde carrière nog verder uit: in duo met zijn toenmalige echtgenote Linda Peters en sinds 1982 solo. Zowel zijn kwaliteiten als gitaarvirtuoos, met een stilistisch heel breed palet, van epische solo’s op elektrische gitaar tot fenomenale subtiliteiten op akoestische gitaar, als die als songwriter worden steeds weer geprezen. Opvallend daarbij is dat Thompson ook in zijn eigen songs een vrij breed gamma van muzikale invloeden betrekt en zelfs laat versmelten. Symbolisch voor die brede achtergrond zijn de ‘1000 Years of Popular Music’- programma’s die hij sinds een kleine tien jaar speelt, waarin hij effectief een dwarsdoorsnede van populaire muziek uit het jongste millennium speelt, van de middeleeuwse canon ‘Summer is icumen in’ tot Britney Spears’ ‘Oops I Did it Again’. Op het einde van de jaren 1970 speelde Thompson in The Albion Richard Thompson © Ron Slenzak Band, waarin heel wat grote namen uit de Britse folkrock opdoken, maar ook opdelingen enkel nog. Er is oude en nieuwe muziek, er is jazz, klassieke enkele muzikanten met een achtergrond in de oude muziek, waaronder … muziek en popmuziek, er zijn schlagers en opera’s, er is traditionele muziek Philip Pickett. Later zou Pickett nog regelmatig als gastmuzikant op cd’s van en er is wereldmuziek. En dan zwijgen we nog over de versnippering Thompson meespelen. De interesse voor het raakvlak tussen traditionele van genres en subgenres in de rock of de elektronische muziek. Zulke muziek (waarvan de folkrockers een hedendaagse ‘lezing’ gaven) en de onderscheiden bouwen misschien wel op muzikale criteria (het verschil oude muziek (waarvan de historische uitvoeringspraktijk de banden met de tussen blues, rock ‘n’ roll en rhythm ‘n’ blues valt op basis van muzikale volkse wortels van een deel van het repertoire niet kon negeren) is wat de kenmerken te duiden, al zijn het in dit voorbeeld muziekstijlen die misschien muzikanten in de Albion Band samenbracht. In de vindingrijk vormgegeven meer verbonden worden door wat ze gemeenschappelijk hebben dan clash tussen beide werelden op ‘The Bones of All Men’ kwam dat aspect dat ze met elkaar contrasteren), maar dat heeft minstens evenveel met enkel nog veel radicaler uit de verf. sociale verschillen te maken. Deelgenres worden benoemd als een nieuwe afgebakende categorie omdat een bepaalde sociale groep of subgroep zich Kan je dat nog authentieke uitvoeringspraktijk noemen? Op basis van ermee identificeert. de instrumentenkeuze natuurlijk niet, maar de aandachtige luisteraar Dat principe is natuurlijk niet nieuw. Dat sociale verschillen ook aparte zal wel opmerken dat de frasering, het spelen met kleur en textuur muzikale werelden in stand houden, is evident. Het gros van wat we nu en de nauwkeurigheid waarmee de oorspronkelijke partituren ook als oude muziek en klassieke muziek bestempelen, speelde zich af in door die anachronistische instrumenten gerespecteerd worden het een exclusief milieu van religieuze orden en adellijke hoven. Pas vanaf origineel allerminst als excuus gebruiken voor zomaar een potje rockend de 18de eeuw bereikt die muziek ook de (hogere) burgerij, maar blijft het freewheelen. Als ‘The Bones of All Men’ één ding duidelijk maakte, dan is een muziekleven voor een kleine minderheid, netjes gescheiden van het het wel dat categorieën relatief zijn, dat oude muziek die wij doorgaans muziekleven van de ‘gewone man’. Een ander repertoire, andere genres, onder de ‘klassieke’ categorie en hedendaagse muziek die wij in het pop/ andere contexten, vaak ook andere muzikanten bestonden zo volledig rock segment situeren niet zo ver uit elkaar hoeven te liggen. Uiteindelijk naast elkaar. Maar die grens was niet altijd even strikt. En in deze tijden waren het instrumentale dansen, uitgecomponeerde (en hooguit lichtjes waarin zoveel informatie beschikbaar is dat nieuwsgierige verkenning van gestileerde) amusementsmuziek die in de jaren 1500 hetzelfde brede onbekende genres en stijlen vergemakkelijkt wordt en kruisbestuivingen appèl had als de rocktraditie vandaag.

  • Galicia's Carlos Nuñez, 'The Jimi Hendrix of The
    MUSIC & NIGHTLIFE | Posted on Fri, Jan. 31, 2014 | Article Page 1 of 2 Galicia’s Carlos Nuñez, ‘the Jimi Hendrix of the bagpipes,’ plays here Wednesday By Fernando Gonzalez | Special to the Miami Herald Carlos Nuñez is far more than “the Jimi Hendrix of the bagpipes,” or the “the seventh Chieftain,” an honorary member of the legendary traditional Irish band. But if you happen to be the modern master of the gaita, the bagpipe of Galicia, a region in the northwest corner of Spain, maybe such barker’s calls help make new audiences stop and look. The truth is richer. Nuñez is a classically trained multi-instrumentalist. (He also plays flute, recorder, whistles and a number of traditional instruments.) And he is both a traditionalist and an innovator, playing a key role in preserving the gaita, an instrument that is a symbol of Galician culture yet was once fading to extinction. His collaborations speak to the universality of this instrument and the possibilities for its future. Over the years Nuñez has collaborated with The Carlos Nuñez plays the gaita, the bagpipe of Galicia. Chieftains, Ry Cooder, Compay Segundo, Mike Scott of The Waterboys and Japanese composer Ryuichi Sakamoto as well as flamenco guitarists and Sufi singers from Tangier. His 1996 debut recording, A Irmandade Das Estrelas (The Brotherhood of Stars), an improbable platinum seller in Spain, featured more than 50 guests. “Collaborations are my modus operandi,” says Nuñez who begins his new North American tour at the Coral Gables Congregational Church on Wednesday night. “It´s a philosophy that comes from traditional music — especially Celtic music.

  • Johann Sebastian Bach: Dazu Ist Erschienen Der Sohn Gottes – BWV 40 Allegorical Symbolism and Rhetorical Devices
    Johann Sebastian Bach: Dazu ist erschienen der Sohn Gottes – BWV 40 While most commentators observe the military aspects present in the cantata’s text, a great deal of the commentary overlooks or is unaware of the important element of rhetoric (“musical speech”) in the Baroque, especially the use of the horn and its connection to classical Roman motifs. I’m focusing the discussion on that subject for this week, and specifically for the opening chorus for this cantata; I believe that for Bach and his peers, the use of the horn in Christmas cantatas was a rhetorical device to conjure images of Roman triumphal processions: the triumph of Caesar marching into Rome, with Jesus Christ as the new victor, having conquered Satan. Allegorical symbolism and rhetorical devices Philip Pickett’s research into Baroque notions of rhetoric and its background in allegorical drama and court spectacle is vitally important, and I’ll do my best to give a summary of his theory, with extensive quotes from his notes to the Brandenburg Concertos. During the Baroque, composers saw music as a form of speech, and compositions were seen as musical conversations. Using classical authors such as Quintilian and Cicero, the five elements of rhetoric were applied to music: inventio and dispositio were applied to musical composition: elocutio, memoria and actio were applied to musical performances. Using his poetic text as a launch point (the loci topic), Philip Pickett a composer would use nuggets of musical inspiration which could be expanded into a complete movement or even composition of several movements. This composition could then be understood as a sophisticated speech.

  • Decca Discography
    DECCA DISCOGRAPHY >>4 GREAT BRITAIN: digital, 1979-2008 In the early 1970s the advent of Anthony Rooley, the Consort of Musicke, Emma Kirkby, Christopher Hogwood and the Academy of Ancient Music brought a fresh look at repertoire from Dowland to Purcell, Handel, Mozart and eventually Beethoven. Solti recorded with the LPO from 1972 and the National Philharmonic was booked regularly from 1974-84. Also during the 1970s the London Sinfonietta’s surveys of Schönberg and Janá ček were recorded. Ashkenazy’s second career as a conductor centred initially on London, with the Philharmonia from 1977 and the RPO from 1987. Philip Pickett’s New London Consort joined the Florilegium roster in 1985 and Argo’s new look brought in a variety of ensembles in the 1990s. But after an LPO Vaughan Williams cycle was aborted in 1997, Decca’s own UK recordings comprised little more than piano music and recital discs. Outside London, Argo recorded regularly in Cambridge and Oxford. Decca engaged the Welsh National Opera from 1980-96 and the Bournemouth Symphony from 1990-96, but otherwise made little use of regional British orchestras. By the time they raised their performing standards to an acceptable level, Chandos, Hyperion and Naxos had largely replaced the old majors in the market for orchestral sessions. >RV0 VENUES One hundred and seventy different venues were used, eighty-eight in the London area and eighty-two elsewhere in Britain, but only one in ten (those in bold ) hosted thirty or more entries, whilst seventy were only visited once. LONDON AREA ABBEY ROAD STUDIOS , St.John’s Wood, London NW8 (1931), initially restricted to EMI labels, were opened to all from 1968.

  • Medieval Music©[
    Paul Halsall Listening to Medieval Music©[ Author: Paul Halsall Title: Listening to Medieval Music Date: 1999: last revised 01/18/2000] _______________________________________________________________ In the summer of 1999, I made a concerted effort to get a better grasp of medieval music -- better that is, than that acquired by listening to the odd recording here and there. In this document, I outline the general development of music in proto-Western and Western cultures from the time of the earliest information until the beginning of the tonal era, around 1600. Since I am not a musicologist, this outline derives from reading in secondary sources [see bibliography at the end], information supplied with the better CDs and some online sources. Appreciation of almost all serious music is improved by some effort to understand its history and development -- and indeed until very recently any educated person would have had some music education. In the case of Ancient and Medieval music, such effort is essential to enjoyment of the music, unless appreciation is to go no further that a certain "new age" mood setting. For each major period, I list suggested CDs [and occasionally other types of media] which document or attempt to represent the music. These CDs are not the only ones available to illustrate the musical history of Western civilization, but they are however, the ones I have available. [Those marked with * are additional titles that I have not been able to assess personally.] For a much greater selection of available CDs see The Early Music FAQ [http://www.medieval.org/emfaq/], which provides general overviews, and lists of the contents of the vast majority of recordings of early music.
