Description
[Machine Translation] Teranga Beat" is a Senegalese label that has made it their motto to reissue rare, unknown and valuable recordings from open reel master tapes. The label has so far focused on the popular music of the African continent, but this album features rare ethnic jazz works from Greece as an anomaly. Kyriakos Sphetsas is a leading composer in Greece, who has worked in a wide range of genres from classical to jazz, traditional music, and film music. This album is a sequel to "Greek Fusion Orchestra Vol. 1" (Rice TBR-7146), a compilation of previously unreleased recordings made in 1977 by his own group, which he formed in 1976. The concept of this album is to present the traditional music of Greece and the Balkans composed by Kyriakos and performed by top-notch musicians. The compositions are more familiar than the previous album, and the realistic and clear sound quality, which makes us feel that the recordings were made 42 years ago, is so realistic and clear that we can enjoy the dawn of Greek fusion music.
Note: This is an import edition (manufactured outside of Japan).

Description in Japanese
グリーク・フュージョン・オーケストラ Vol.2 / キリアコス・スフェツァス
知られざる貴重音源を、オープン・リールのマスターテープから復刻することをモットーとしてきたセネガルのレーベル"Teranga Beat"。これまでアフリカ大陸の大衆音楽を中心に紹介してきた同レーベルだが、本作では変則的にギリシャのレアーなエスニック・ジャズ作品を取り上げている。名義人になっているキリアコス・スフェツァスは同国を代表する作曲家で、クラシックからジャズ、伝統音楽、そして映画音楽まで幅広く手掛けてきた人物。本作は1976年に結成した自身のグループによって77年に録音された未発表音源ばかりを集めたコンピ盤『グリーク・フュージョン・オーケストラ Vol.1 』(ライス TBR-7146)の続編。キリアコスによって作曲されたギリシャやバルカン半島に息づく伝統音楽のテイストを感じさせるナンバーを、超一流音楽家らの演奏で聴かせるというコンセプトを持っている。前作よりも親しみ易い楽曲を中心に、緻密に練られた作曲や高い演奏力、そして42年前の録音であることを全く感じさせないリアルでクリアな音質で、グリーク・フュージョンの夜明けを楽しませてくれる。
