Description

[Machine Translation] In the so-called "Age of Unrest" of the 1920s and 1930s, between the two world wars, young people found a way to enjoy life through dance. Jazz and tango rhythms were very popular at this time, and Kuchenek's opera "Johnny Plays", which was entirely based on jazz music, was much admired by the public, but was also known as a pioneering work of decadent music, and was considered problematic by Nazi Party followers, who rejected it. This series includes jazz, foxtrot (dance to ragtime music), and shimmy (shoulder shaking dance to jazz music), all of which fascinated people during this period. The first album includes dance pieces based on melodies taken from the aforementioned "Johnny Plays," as well as works by Austrian and Czech composers such as Eisler and Martin . This valuable collection includes many world premiere recordings performed by the virtuoso conductor, Mr. Wallisch.
Note: This is an import edition (manufactured outside of Japan).

Description in Japanese

20世紀のフォックストロット集 第1集 オーストリアとチェコ / ゴットリープ・ヴァリッシュ (ピアノ)

2つの世界大戦の狭間である1920年代から1930年代のいわゆる"不安の時代"、若い人たちはダンスで人生を楽しむ方法を見つけた。この頃、大流行していたのがジャズやタンゴのリズムであり、中でも全面的にジャズを用いたクシェネクの歌劇「ジョニーは演奏する」は人々にもてはやされたものの、退廃音楽の先駆的作品として、ナチス党信奉者からは排除されるなど、問題視されたことでも知られている。今回のシリーズには、この時期に人々を魅了したジャズや、フォックストロット (ラグタイムに合わせて踊るダンス)、シミー (ジャズにあわせて肩を揺らすダンス)などを収録。第1作目は、前述の「ジョニーは演奏する」から採られたメロディを元にしたダンス曲や、アイスラー、マルティヌーなど、オーストリアとチェコの作曲家たちの作品を収録。名手ヴァリッシュの演奏による世界初録音も多数含まれる貴重な作品集。
