摘要
早期音乐已经录制了半个多世纪,但其大部分1600年前的曲目抵制了古典浪漫主义专辑中所接受的编程惯例。相反,早期的音乐复兴发展了自己独特的录音方法,灵感来自于古典音乐以外的音乐风格的创新。20世纪60年代摇滚概念专辑的出现帮助塑造了艺术摇滚和前卫摇滚的流派,并将它们与其他子流派区分开来。早期概念专辑的一些成就——使用录音室技术和LP媒介,产生了一种大规模的音乐和叙事形式——吸引了早期音乐和民间音乐家。本文考察了杰出的早期音乐表演者的工作,他们采用了一种概念叙事的方法来记录早期的剧目。大卫·芒罗的第一张早期音乐专辑展示了他在民谣舞台上借鉴的技巧。托马斯·宾克利(Thomas Binkley)对大型音乐形式的精心处理有助于塑造他颇具影响力的“圣地亚哥之路”(Camino de Santiago)专辑中的朝圣叙事。本文进一步分析了Hildegard的几张音乐唱片,以及Jordi Savall和Pedro Memelsdorff作为早期音乐概念专辑的唱片。这些专辑展示了早期的音乐表演者如何使用叙事来创造一种准历史的幻觉,并创造抽象的音乐叙事。
ABSTRACT Early music has been recorded for over half a century but most of its pre-1600 repertoire resists the programming conventions accepted in classical-romantic albums. Instead, the early music revival has developed its own unique approach to recording, inspired by innovations in musical styles other than classical music. The emergence of the rock concept album in the 1960s helped to shape the genres of art rock and progressive rock and to set them apart from other sub-genres. Some of the achievements of the early concept album—the use of studio technology and the medium of the LP in a way that yielded a large-scale musical and narrative form—appealed to early music and folk musicians. The article examines the work of prominent early music performers who adopted a conceptual-narrative approach to the recording of early repertories. David Munrow’s first early music albums demonstrate techniques borrowed from his work in the folk scene. Thomas Binkley’s careful handling of large-scale musical form helped to shape the pilgrimage narrative of his influential “Camino de Santiago” album. The article analyses further examples from several recordings of Hildegard’s music, and from the recordings of Jordi Savall and Pedro Memelsdorff, as early music concept albums. These albums show how early music performers use narrativity both to create a quasi-historical illusion and to create abstract musical narratives.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Musicological Research publishes original articles on all aspects of the discipline of music: historical musicology, style and repertory studies, music theory, ethnomusicology, music education, organology, and interdisciplinary studies. Because contemporary music scholarship addresses critical and analytical issues from a multiplicity of viewpoints, the Journal of Musicological Research seeks to present studies from all perspectives, using the full spectrum of methodologies. This variety makes the Journal a place where scholarly approaches can coexist, in all their harmony and occasional discord, and one that is not allied with any particular school or viewpoint.
