来自Cirrus的Lands End（Opus3 HDCD）----这张是我经常听的一张CD，值得注意
的是它让我有听ECM中那些好作品的感觉不过更加温暖一些，不像Jan Gabarek那么
寒冷，没有Keith那么深邃，没有Terje那么孤高，一个孤独温暖的欧洲爵士搀杂着
点NewAge和先锋派的影子，特别有趣的是第五首，开头使用了didgeri-doo（那个
澳洲的土族乐器，一根空心树干顶在地上吹），然后曲风转向探戈，好是温柔野性。
曾在悉尼街头欣赏土族的艺人表演di-dgeri-doo，头顶上滑稽大沿礼帽上还趴着他
的宝贝宠物，一只虎皮鹦鹉。每次听这首，往事总是浮现，思想随着探戈的节奏四
处游弋，整个专辑都是原创，情感的抒发，音乐的创新和技艺的精湛集于一身。录
音则是Opus3一贯的高水准，难得一见的极其深和宽的声场 吉他声甩箱跟玩儿似的
（当然你的箱子不能太慢）。结像自然稳定清晰，声音充满活力，应该是HDCD格式
的功劳···其实每次听都有不少新的感受，因为它的风格没有极端化，可能像药
引子，勾起我的思绪···推荐给大家听听看，可能对你也是个惊喜····
This album was briefly mentioned in my Opus 3 overview in issue 8,
but I feel it requires a fuller examination. As I noted, the sounds
are suggestive of the best of ECM's jazz recordings, with Ari Haraldsson's
sax sounding like a less disconsolate version of Jan Gabarek's. The
music is a pleasant mix of, evocative, new age with a hint of the
avant-garde. The occasional appearance of the Didgeridoo brings an ethnic
feel to the proceedings - Nordic trolls and dragons go down-under! All
the compositions are original, and the album is full of expression,
invention, and proficiency. The sound is excellent, in the usual Opus
3 way, but with one of the largest, and deepest, soundstages I remember
from this source. The guitars can appear way outside the speakers and
you can sit back and wallow in the natural acoustics. Very natural
tones, and a tangible sound to the percussion, help to give the sound
real life. Each time I have heard this album it has grown on me more.
If you are not sure of this CD on your first listen, give it time.
You could be pleasantly surprised.
Cirrus was started in 1992 reaching its present form in 1997 which
comprises two acoustic guitars, tenor and soprano saxophones, didgeridoo,
melodica double bass and percussion, here playing their owncompositions.
This somewhat unconventional line-up of instrumentation was brought about by
the individual musicians needs to break away from the accepted norms
associated with jazz, pop and rock - fields in which all of the group
have already had considerable experiences - and give range to their
musical creativity in composition, musical expression, improvisation and
indisputable talent.
In order to do justice to this the debut album of Cirrus, it was
necessary to take advantage of the outstanding acoustics of B?linge church
thus capturing every possible nuance of this very special record. The
only problem would appear to be that since Cirrus was formed to break
away from the conventional categories of jazz, pop and rock etc. it
will need to be filed in a very special category of its own - or
Opus 3 - which amounts to the same thing.
One reviewer wrote a year ago, "playful new jazz with Nordic roots"
- maybe this is one way of describing Cirrus' music!
This album was recorded using two acoustic guitars, tenor and soprano
saxophones, didgeridoo, melodica, double bass and percussion. All the
songs are their own compositions and are light and airy in timbre
(perhaps like a cirrus cloud), recorded in the nice acoustics of a church.
You might also describe it as quite modern jazz music but still very
melodic and very appealing to a broad spectrum of listeners.
