About this album

  • Updated: 10/09/2007
NIHON-KAKYOKU

Lo stile Nihon-Kakyoku ha origine nel corso dell'Ottocento, quando il Giappone cominciò a subire l'influenza della cultura europea. I musicisti giapponesi cominciarono allora a scrivere musica secondo uno stile europeo. Tuttavia costoro cercarono comunque di dare sempre un carattere nazionale alla musica della propria patria, valorizzando tutto quello che di caratteristico possiede un preciso ambiente geografico: canti e danze popolari, leggende, abitudini, figure tipiche. Infatti, alcuni di questi brani sono scritti su scala pentatonica (scala di 5 note).
Il Nihon-Kakyoku è stato scritto per canto e pianoforte mettendo in musica la poesia giapponese.

What a stunning, enigmatic, shocking, and beautiful and emotional voice!! When I first downloaded this album, I'll be honest, I hated it, instinctively, though I dont know why. But now I have listened to it again and again, it is easiy one of my favourite albums of all time and you are one of my favourite vocalists EVER. i was just listening to it thismorning, as a matter of fact! I love how the emotion in your voice is so thick, how the texture is so rich, how heightened and how unique a sound it is and how wonderfully powerful! When I listen to the sad songs on this album performed with this magical voice, I feel that all the sadness inside of my soul can be caressed and spooned in empathy. What a wonderful gift to give mankind, such deep catharsis and emotional release! That I found this voice makes me so happy, I wish I could hear more of it!! I hope you release more on jamendo soon. One day I would be honoured to hear you sing the song 'Still No Sign of Iser' from the musical Soviet Zion I have written which is also avaiable on Jamendo. With your voice it would be just exquisite. Very best wishes. x

Consigliato ma solo se ti piace la musica lirica. La voce del mezzo soprano è davvero meritevole, la copertina la farei meno confusionaria, ma l'album è bello!
