简介:
Appalachian Journey, the long-awaited follow-up to the best-selling album Appalachia Waltz (SK 68460) is here, this time with superstar guest vocalists James Taylor and Alison Krauss, and a 7-city US tour that kicks off on March 30, 2000 in Nashville.
Appalachian Journey features a powerful combination of original music plus innovative arrangements of traditional American favorites. Tracks range from foot-tapping jigs to heartbreakingly beautiful songs as the worlds of country, jazz, bluegrass and classical music reunite for a unique sound that People Magazine hailed as one of the year's best albums.
Like its predecessor, Appalachian Journey features all-new music by Edgar Meyer and Mark O'Connor, and this time James Taylor contributes his own original instrumental track, "Benjamin", which he has performed in concert but never before recorded. Taylor lends his multi-platinum vocals to the timeless "Hard Times Come Again No More", bringing that Civil War era gem into the 21st century with what is sure to become the definitive version of the song.
Highlights of the new album also include performances by country superstar Alison Krauss, who joins Yo-Yo Ma, Mark O'Connor and Edgar Meyer on two tracks: the poignantly beautiful ballad by Civil War era composer Stephen Foster called "Slumber, My Darling", and a new arrangement of the traditional "Fisher's Hornpipe".
马友友首张融合了流行音乐元素的新概念专辑,为您带来丰富多样的音乐风格!
马友友与美国著名乡村摇滚巨星James Taylor、民谣歌手Alison Krauss精诚合作!
本张专辑最大的不同在于古典结合流行的音乐新概念,并且请到著名的美国乡村摇滚巨星James Taylor詹姆斯泰勒(以专辑〈沙钟〉荣获2000年第40届格莱美奖最佳流行专辑大奖)以及另一位民谣歌手Alison Krauss艾莉森克劳斯(曾与Union Station合作‘When You Say Nothing At All’一曲,后为Boyzone主唱Ronan Kitting重新诠释,并成为电影〈新娘百分百〉主题曲)共同合作演奏。
在这张专辑中,三位主要的演奏者再度共同定义了“古典音乐”的新概念,不再让古典音乐局限于巴赫、莫扎特等古典音乐家的作品,从而得以获得新的听觉体验。专辑主要的作曲者欧康诺非常敏感地在美国西部民间音乐和古典音乐之间找到平衡,为古典音乐的传统注入新的生命和节奏,让所有年轻人都可以在其中嗅到鲜明的气息。两首主打单曲“艰辛岁月不再来(Hard Times Come Again No More)”与“睡吧,我的宝贝(Slumber, My Darling)”,前者结合詹姆斯泰勒独特的嗓音,听来亲切温馨,平静动人,而后者由艾莉森克劳斯诠释,仿佛晨曦的第一道曙光,为世界带来希望。就因为这么丰富多样的音乐风格,更加展示此专辑的与众不同。个人认为是一张非常耐听、值得回味的专辑。
