Description

[Machine Translation] After three years of work, Takamitsu Ishizuka, one of the best flamenco cantaors in Japan both in name and reality, has completed his latest album, which is full of originality and brings flamenco music to a new level. The album title "Retorno ( al Clasico )" means "Return to Classical Music. This year marks the 30th anniversary since he switched from flamenco guitar to cantaor as a vocal performance student, and while he has adopted the skills of vocal performance, which can be said to be his roots, he sings not in a pure bel canto style, but in a unique and distinctive way as a "cantaor" in cante flamenco. This is a wonderful work that combines tradition and novelty. The repertoire includes world-famous songs from Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries (Argentina, Mexico), including "Seven Spanish Folk Songs," a collection of folk songs and dances from Aragon, Andalusia, Asturias, Murcia, and other Spanish regions by Manuel de Falla, one of Spain's leading 20th century composers. is a masterpiece. In addition, the world-famous songs "Aranjuez of My Heart" (Aranjuez Concerto, 2nd movement) by Rodrigo, a representative Spanish composer, and "Granada" by Augustin Lara are also sung. From Argentina, the album includes the famous song "Song of the Forgotten Trees" by Alberto Hinastera, one of the most important classical composers in Latin America, along with Villa-Lobos (Brazil) and Chavez (Mexico), and Carlos Guastavino, who wrote songs in many different genres. In particular, "Seven Spanish Folksongs" and "Aranjuez in My Heart" are rare compositions in the world, and have been officially recognized by the Falla Foundation and the Joaquin Rodrigo Foundation, both of which have strict arrangement controls. The members are Mami Ishizuka (piano), Kiichiro Komobuchi (wood bass), Gen Ogimi (percussion), and Jun Hayakawa, who continues to expand the possibilities of the bandoneon, joins on M3 as a guest. The album liner notes were written by Canizares, a product of Ishizuka's unique connections.

Retorno (al Clasico) / 石塚隆充

名実ともに日本が誇る最高のカンタオールである石塚隆充が3年間の時をかけて完成、フラメンコ音楽をさらに新たな地平にまで引き上げたオリジナリティ溢れる最新作。アルバム・タイトル『Retorno (al Clasico)』=レトルノ (アル・クラシコ)は"クラシックへの回帰"という意味。声楽科の学生時代にフラメンコ・ギターからカンタオールに転向して30年という節目の今年、そのルーツともいえる"声楽"のスキルを採り入れながらも、純粋なベル・カントな唱法ではなくあくまでも"カンタオール"としてカンテ・フラメンコに見られる独自で個性的な歌唱法で歌い上げるという、伝統と斬新さが同居した素晴らしい作品。レパートリーはスペインと、スペイン語圏 (アルゼンチン、メキシコ)の世界的に有名な歌曲。20世紀のスペインを代表する作曲家マヌエル・デ・ファリャが、アラゴン/アンダルシア/アストゥーリアス/ムルシア等スペイン各地の民謡や舞曲をまとめた大名曲「7つのスペイン民謡」は極上の仕上がり。さらにスペインを代表する作曲家ロドリーゴ「わが心のアランフェス」 (アランフェス協奏曲 第2楽章)、アウグスティン・ララの歌曲「グラナダ」と世界的に有名な曲が歌われている。アルゼンチンからは、ヴィラ=ロボス (ブラジル)やチャベス (メキシコ)と並び称されるラテンアメリカで最も重要なクラシック作曲家アルベルト・ヒナステラの有名な歌曲「忘却の木の歌」、多くのジャンルの曲を残したカルロス・グアスタビーノの名曲が収められている。特に「7つのスペイン民謡」と「わが心のアランフェス」は世界でも希少な編成で、アレンジ管理に厳しいファリャ財団とホアキン・ロドリーゴ財団の公認も得たほど。メンバーは石塚まみ (ピアノ)、コモブチキイチロウ (ウッドベース)、大儀見元 (パーカッション)、そしてゲストでバンドネオンの可能性を広げ続ける早川純もM3で参加。さらにアルバム・ライナーノーツはカニサレスが執筆という石塚ならではの人脈が揃ったプロダクト。
