Score Reconstruction by Mark Fitz-Gerald

Set in late 1920s Leningrad and then in the Altai Mountains in Russian Mongolia, Shostakovich’s second film ODNA (ALONE) features a dazzling score for a huge orchestra including a banda (8 brass band instruments), theremin, (Shostakovich was one of the first composers to write for this new electronic instrument), barrel-organ, a soprano, mezzosoprano, tenor, an overtone singer and choir. It has been reconstructed from the official Russian version of the film by Mark Fitz- Gerald, with the official approval of Mrs Irina Shostakovich. The recording also restores a short Overture [track 1] and a beautiful, lyrical prelude [track 9] that were not used in the film. The booklet includes notes on the music by leading Shostakovich film music expert, John Riley, and on overtone singing by Mark van Tongeren who performs on the recording. There are also transliterations and translations of the vocal score.

これは曲もだが音が素晴らしい。今どき5000枚以上部屋を陣取ってる当方のCDのなかでも、群を抜く音質かも。ショスタコファンならずも、オーディオマニアなら必聴だ。高温は澄みきり、弦楽器群の細部が手にとるように見え、グランカッサの強打は、例のマーキュリーやテラークの1812の大砲より強烈といえば大げさかな。 にしても、ショスタコの映画音楽はカッコいいな^^

ショスタコーヴイチの映画音楽は知られてい...

投稿日:2011/01/17 (月)

ショスタコーヴイチの映画音楽は知られているものが少ないんですが、結構膨大な量があるみたいで、未知の開拓分野としてマニア心を刺激します。 音楽的には、お得意の童謡のような単純なメロディがだんだん調子っぱずれになり最後にはアイロニィ全開となるお約束のパターンのものが多いわけですが、これがマニアには堪らないわけです。 ナクソスさんはこういった未知の領域を開拓してくれるので、今後もショスタコーヴイチの世界初となる音楽のレコーディングを期待しています。

まず、この曲の完全全曲盤が出たという事は素直に喜んでいいと思います。 オーケストラはドイツの名門ですので、とっても上手く文句なしです! ショスタコーヴィチファンは持って損はなしだと思います!
