「木片のための音楽」だけはよかった。

Reviewed in Japan 🇯🇵 on May 30, 2021

Verified Purchase

Colin Currie Groupは Drumming があまり出来がよいとは思えなかったし、このCDの収録曲はすでに他のいい演奏があるのでWishlistには入れていませんでした。ところが「木片のための音楽」は1977年のライヒ自身のライブとエマールのピアノ版しかもっていないことに気づいてようやく買う気になりました。

ライヒの指定が「７～10分」とあり、1977年が11分、エマールが８分なのに対して、このCDでは14分半もあります。テンポが遅いわけではないのでリピートが倍くらい多いのでしょう。1977年は残響の少ないパルシブな音で演奏記録にとどまり、エマールのピアノ版はそもそも無個性なピアノの音がつまらないのですが、この演奏ではホールトーンの豊かな残響と広い空間を思わせる澄み切った音質の演奏が何とも心地よく鑑賞するにふさわしいです。木の質感もよく伝わってきます。

Music for Pieces of Wood (1973)
for five pair of tuned claves
published by Universal Edition

参考までに。「クラベス」とは木片には違いないのですが、両手に持って向きをそろえて火の用心カチカチと打ち合わせる「拍子木」ではなく、叩かれる側の木片を片手で押さえて叩く側を持って交叉するような向きで叩きます。調律は叩かれる側で決まります。

David Bowieの Love Is Lost (Hello Steve Reich Mix by James Murphy for the DFA Edit)の冒頭でClapping Musicを真似て手を叩いていますがプロがやっても単調に聞こえます。「真似しようとして容易に出来ない」のは当たり前。作曲の神をも怖れぬ発言です。Pulseに「波動」という意味はありません。ピアノやベースの刻む「拍子」のことです。

Steve Reichの厚い信頼が感じられるColin Currieの傑作

Reviewed in Japan 🇯🇵 on June 7, 2019

Verified Purchase

Colin Currie (1976年～)は、スコットランド出身のパーカッショニスト。
Colin Currie Groupのリーダーであり、ミニマル・ミュージックの巨匠 Steve Reichの作品に取り組み「PULSE / QUARTET」「Drumming」といった優れたアルバムをリリースしてきました。
Reichからの信頼も厚いようで、このColin Currie Records第3弾の「Live at Fondation Louis Vuitton」は、Colin Currie & Steve Reich名義であり、ジャケットには2人が談笑するフォトが使われています。
更にReichは、1曲目「Clapping Music」でCurrieと共に手拍子を叩いています。たった2人の手拍子によるシンプルこのうえない曲ですが、真似しようとして容易に出来ないところがReichの偉大さを証明していると思います。
2曲目「Proverb」は、Colin Currie Group(ヴィブラフォン2、エレクトリック・オルガン2)にSynergy Vocals(ソプラノ3、テナー2)が加わった計9名による演奏で、Currieが指揮をとっています。冒頭から女性コーラスの澄み切った歌声が響き渡り、どこか厳かな雰囲気も漂います。その女性コーラスにヴィブラフォン、エレクトリック・オルガンが重なり、更に男性コーラスも加わると、9人全員が織りなすサウンドがゆったりと空間を満たし、霧深い森の奥に迷い込んだような心持ちになります。
3曲目から5曲目は、「Mallet Quartet」の「Ⅰ.Fast」「Ⅱ.Slow」「Ⅲ.Fast」。Currieも含むColin Currie Group(ヴィブラフォン2、マリンバ2)の計4名による演奏です。
「Ⅰ.Fast」は、疾走感があり、ヴィブラフォンが煌めくように美しく鳴りわたります。
そして、鮮やかに「Ⅱ.Slow」へと切り替わり、場はひっそりと静まっていく。
再びテンポが速まる「Ⅲ.Fast」は、「Ⅰ.Fast」よりも音色が多彩に感じられ、心地よいアンサンブルが滑らかに流れていきます。
6曲目「Pulse」は、このアルバムでは最も大編成で、Currieが指揮するColin Currie Group(フルート2、クラリネット2、ピアノ、ベースギター、ヴァイオリン4、ヴィオラ2)の計12名による演奏。全員が奏でるふくよかなサウンドには温もりが感じられ、タイトル通り「波動」となってリスナーを包み込んでいきます。
7曲目「Music for Pieces of Wood」は、Currieも含むColin Currie Group(パーカッションのみ5名)による演奏。拍子木など極めてシンプルな楽器により、リズミカルに奏でられます。14分を超える曲ですが、単調に感じられないのは、演奏者の技量によるものでしょうか? 鮮やかな打音が空間に解き放たれ、アルバムは幕を閉じます。
Clapping(手拍子)から始まり、Pieces of Wood (木片)を叩く音で終わる構成も見事。
全7曲、約64分。録音は、2017年12月2日・3日、パリにて。

An excellent selection of lesser know Reich works.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 30, 2023

Verified Purchase

A very fine addition to the Steve Reich catalogue. Firstly, despite being live, these are excellent recordings that for me benefit from having a certain sense of space around them - some of the Nonesuch recordings can often sound a tad claustrophobic (to my ears) but these feel light and airy. Proverb is the real beneficiary here which I find to be a superior version to the original. But either way, this is a rarely featured Reich piece and so It's a brilliant choice. Mallet Quartet and Pulse also rival their original Nonesuch versions. Pulse in particular is a lovely sounding performance.

Secondly, I really enjoy how these pieces were programmed...they flow together as one beautiful sequence with audience noise edited out. It feels like a clever journey into some less explored areas of Reich's music and one hopes that Currie might explore similar programmes in the future (I continue to hope that Music for a Large Ensemble will get a long overdue dusting off!)

A great collection.

Wonderful Sound

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on April 20, 2019

Verified Purchase

As an avowed fan of Steve Reich, I am in no way going to discuss the pieces themselves. I suspect that is true of most people considering buying this CD - the only real curiosity is whether the performances hold up, and how does it sound?

Well, I'm pleased to say this CD is absolutely wonderful. The recording and production is superb, leaving us with all the detail (which is important when it comes to the likes of Proverb) and truly giving you that "you are there in the room with the musicians" feeling. The recording is exquisite, and I can't recommend it enough.

The performances are also very good. The highlight for me is Proverb, where the vocal duties here are performed by Synergy. It's enough to bring a tear to the eye. If you don't know this piece (it's not recorded often), it is based around the phrase: How small a thought it takes to fill a whole life. In performance it is unlike many of Reich's pieces, in that the repetitions don't seem as obvious. It's beautifully performed and recorded here.

The other pieces are likely well known, with perhaps the exception of Pulse, given that at the time of writing it's relatively new. There's not a lot I can say about them other than they continue the high level of performance.

Since it's 2019 on the Internet, I have to put at least one negative in here. So here's mine; keep in mind, this shouldn't prevent anyone from buying this excellent disc. For me, I'd of perhaps changed the sequence of the tracls. I'd of swapped Music for Pieces of Wood, with Pulse. I think emotionally the CD would have felt better on a more orchestral piece.

Still, a minor detail. Thank you Colo Currie and all theperformers here. And of course, Mr. Reich!!

This CD ships in a standard Jewelcase, with an 8 page booklet in english.

I had first heard a extract from this on BBC Radio Three's "Record Review" and was immediatly intrigued. At greater length it is exciting and challenging modern music though plerase dont let that description put you off in any way. Good stuff- try not joining in with the clapping music.
