Marcel Khalife - Taqasim


Marcel Khalifé was born in 1950 in Amchit, Mount-Lebanon. He studied the oud (the Arabic lute) at the Beirut National conservatory, and, ever since, has been injecting a new life into the oud.

From 1970 to 1975, Marcel Khalifé taught at the conservatory and other local institutions. During that same period, he toured the Middle East, North Africa, Europe and the United States giving solo performances on the oud.

Oud playing was traditionally constrained by the strict techniques that governed its playing. Highly talented and skillful musicians such as Marcel Khalifé were, however, able to free the instrument from those constraints and thus greatly expanding its possibilities.

In 1972, Marcel Khalifé created a musical group in his native village with the goal of reviving its musical heritage and the Arabic chorale. The first performances took place in Lebanon. 1976 saw the birth of Al Mayadeen Ensemble. Enriched by the previous ensemble’s musical experiences, Al Mayadeen’s notoriety went well beyond Lebanon. Accompanied by his musical ensemble, Marcel Khalifé began a lifelong far-reaching musical journey, performing in Arab countries, Europe, the United States, Canada, South America, Australia, and Japan.

Marcel Khalifé has been invited several times to festivals of international fame such as: Baalbeck, Beit Eddine (Lebanon), Carthage, El Hammamat (Tunisia), Timgad (Algeria), Jarash (Jordan), Arles (France), Krems, Linz (Austria), Bremen (Germany), ReOrient (Sweden), Pavia (Italy), World Music Festival in San Francisco, New York, Cleveland (the USA).

He has performed in such prestigious halls as the "Palace of Arts" in Montreal, "Symphony Space" and "Merkin Concert" in New York, "Berklee Theatre" and "New England Conservatory" in Boston, "Royal Festival Hall", and "Queen Elizabeth Hall" in London,"UNESCO Palace" of Beirut, Cairo Opera House (Egypt), "Reciprocity","House of the Cultures of the World" and "UNESCO Hall" in Paris, "Central Dionysia" in Rome, "Yerba Buena" in San Francisco,"Sõdra Teatern" in Stokholm.

Since 1974, Marcel Khalifé has been composing music for dance which gave rise to a new genre of dance, the popular Eastern ballet (Caracalla, Sarab Ensemble, Rimah, Popular Art Ensemble)

Marcel Khalifé has also been composing soundracks for film, documentary and fiction, produced by Maroun Baghdadi and Oussama Mouhamad among others.

Marcel Khalifé has also composed several purely instrumental works like The Symphony of Return, Chants of the East, Concerto Al Andalus "Suite for Oud and Orchestra" "Mouda'aba" (Caress), Diwan Al Oud, "Jadal" Oud duo, Oud Quartet, "Al Samaa" in the traditional Arabic forms andTaqasim, duo for oud and double bass.

Marcel Khalifé’s compositions has been performed by several orchestras, notably the Kiev Symphony Orchestra, the Academy of Boulogne Billancourt Orchestra, The San Francisco Chamber Orchestra, the Orchestra of the city of Tunis, and the "Absolute Ensemble".

Since 1982, Marcel Khalifé has been writing books on musicthat reflect his avant garde compositions and the maturity of his experience.

His challenges, however, are not only musical in character. Interpreter of music and oud performer, he is also a composer who is deeply attached to the text on which he relies. In his association with great contemporary Arab poets, particularly Palestinian poet par excellence, Mahmoud Darwish, he seeks to renew the character of the Arabic song, to break its stereotypes, and to advance the culture of the society that surrounds it.

His lyrical recordings adds up to about 20 albums, the likes Promises of the storm, Ahmad Al Arabi, Weddings, Peace Be With you, Ode To A Homeland, Arabic Coffeepot, The Children and Body(Al Jassad,) to name a few.

On his journey, Marcel Khalifé invents and creates original music, a novel world of sounds, freed of all pre-established rules. This language elevates him to the level of an ambassador of his own culture and to the vanguard of Near Eastern music in search of innovators.

Terakaft - Akh Issudar (2008)
http://rapidshare.com/files/164922670/Terakaft-AkhIssudar.rar

If Terakaft sound similar to their Tuareg brethren Tinariwen, that shouldn’t come as much of a surprise, given that guitarists Kedou ag Ossad and Liya Ag Ablil are both former members of that band, and songs by Tinariwen founders Inteyeden and Ibrahim form part of their repertoire.

The title of this debut album even links to them, completing the Tamashek proverb “Aman Iman, Akh Issudar” (“Water is life, milk is survival”). Accordingly, Terakaft’s style and songcraft both follow well-worn routes, their three guitars intertwining in the now-familiar cyclical whorls and curlicues of Tuareg desert blues, while their lyrics tell of the deep, spiritual connection they have with their tenere (homeland territory), the effect of rain on a specific wadi in the Kidal region of Mali, the loneliness and pain of separation, the part played by tea-drinking in the establishment of friendship, their respect for fallen freedomfighters, and reflections upon the respective merits of political passivity and revolutionary action.

It could all be summed up by the rubric of their song “Arghane Manine”, “My soul burns while my people are under the yoke”.

Amsterdam Klezmer Band - Zaraza (2009)
http://rapidshare.com/files/172014294/AmsterdamKlezmerBand-Zaraza.rar

Amsterdam Klezmer Band: Zaraza
Katalognummer: AY CD 19 (EAN: 881390201921)
Here’s what the renowned Dutch daily paper NRC has to say about the AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND:”This group has very little to offer to ‘Klezmer-purists’ since Klezmer was never meant to be polished and perfected for concert halls. With their festive approach they take the music out of the conservatory corridors into the street.” It is 2008 and the AKB has been blessed with many enthusiastic fans both in the Netherlands and abroad. Other bands are covering AKB songs and remixes of their tracks are found worldwide. Over the past few years they have performed at many prestigious venues around the world, including the Amsterdam Concertgebouw, and at important festivals such as North Sea Jazz, Ashkenaz, Sziget and Lowlands. The Amsterdam Klezmer bug is spreading...

Hence the title of AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND’s latest release ZARAZA. In Slavic languages zaraza means infectious or contagious, in Polish it is the word for epidemic. Zaraza is indeed an infectious album from an extremely virulent and passionate band. The album contains 15 brand new tracks, all original compositions rooted in the Klezmer tradition and infused with Romanian, Turkish, Serbian, Russian and Macedonian sounds. With Zaraza the band has achieved the optimal CD recording of their unique sound and qualities. The AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND is showcased in its purest form, with virtuoso and provocative performances by the musicians. On Zaraza the musical fire so characteristic of the AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND is stoked to an even greater heat. "Not only do the horns play the signature Klezmer parts like they could do it in their sleep, but also the cool sounds of Dutch hip-hop. Could this be the future sound of Klezmer?" Franz Zipperer/Clarino

The AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND story began in 1996. A few Amsterdam boys with Jewish backgrounds became inspired by the catchy sounds of Klezmer music and started busking. Since that time the band has evolved into a seven-member formation which is now the Klezmer and Balkan music pride of the Netherlands. Their lengthy time on the road and extensive experience are now paying off spectacularly. The band just keeps getting better and better and has again reached a new level with Zaraza.

JOANN SFAR All started with a dedication in his comic best seller “Klezmer”. Joann Sfar wrote: “At the beginning of the book, I'm not too sure what tune the Baron of My Backside plays with his harmonica. But I imagine that when it heats up it must sound like some pieces by the Amsterdam Klezmer Band. They're my favorite group. They know what it's like to play in bars. They sound like a Klezmer version of The Pogues. They are giving Klezmer music a street credibility". We are outmost happy that this star of the French comic scene did the cover for this CD. In his work Sfar expresses a pleasantly unorthodox perspective on his Jewish background, something he has in common with the AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND.

AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND & Essay Recordings
Zaraza is released on the German label Essay Recordings, continuing their earlier collaboration. The 2006 release of AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND “Remixed!” resulted in good sales and reviews worldwide. The track “Sadagora Hot Dub”, Shantel's remix of the track Son became a genuine club hit. The accompanying tour and collaborative project with the prodigious producer duo C-mon and Kypski in the Netherlands, Germany and France were a great success and proved that Klezmer music and Beats are going together very well.

A biography:
With their talented musicians, the Amsterdam Klezmer Band (AKB) is an energetic and poetic stage act that charms international audiences. Their refreshing approach to Klezmer and Balkan music transcends the traditional aspects of this music and results in a very lively mix of Eastern-European sound. Their strength lies in their ability to appeal to a remarkably broad audience across all age groups; they play clubs or theatres, festivals, parties, weddings or formal functions. AKB can both fire up a crowd and create pure listening pleasure with the vibrancy of their playing. Their instrumental skills are complemented by the vocals of Alec Kopyt from Odessa and Job Chajes (also on saxophone).
Since its foundation in 1996 by saxophone player Job Chajes, the band has evolved rapidly. In no time the band became world-famous in Amsterdam for its many vibrant performances on the streets, in the parks and in the pubs. Soon the rest of The Netherlands followed: the band performed at the Oerol Festival in 1999, 2000 and 2001 to great acclaim and was invited to the Noorderslagfestival in January 2001 (the media describing their performance as 'the great surprise of the festival'), followed by the Lowlands Festival in August 2001. During that period the band toured in Slovenia, Switzerland and Italy and completed three successful tours of Turkey. The third CD of the Amsterdam Klezmer Band, Limonchiki, was released on the New York label Knitting Factory label and the band had a grand tour of the Dutch club scene in the autumn of 2001, with as its highpoint the presentation of Limonchikiat the Paradiso, Amsterdam. In September 2003 the CD Katakoftiwas released. It's the result of a collaborative effort of the Amsterdam Klezmer Band and the Galata Gypsy Band from Turkey. The CD was released on Turkish label Kalan Records. In January 2005 SON (Russian for ‘dream') was released, containing a veritable treasure-trove of new Amsterdam Klezmer and Balkan music. The album received an enthusiastic reaction from the (international) press and led to a year of heavy touring and playing gigs in clubs and theatres including world famous Concertgebouw Amsterdam and venues in New York, Moscow, Paris and Hamburg.
Nowadays only part of the Amsterdam Klezmer Band repertory consists of traditionals of Balkan or Klezmer origin. Most of the AKB repertory has been created by the band members themselves, who all without exception contribute musically to an ever-growing melting-pot of infectious Balkan/Gypsy/Klezmer cross-over grooves. In this manner the band endeavours to breathe new life into the Eastern-European Balkan, Klezmer and Gypsy music tradition. Passionate performances, spectacular live shows and a good dose of street credibility form the ingredients of their cocktail.

MEMBERS of the AMSTERDAM KLEZMER BAND about
the SONGS of this ALBUM

Banat (Gijs) It is 2008, time for the Amsterdam Klezmer Band new style! Folk Music from Romania and the surrounding area is exerting more and more influence on the band members’ compositions. The inspiration for my high octane instrumental comes from the music of the Banat region. Pay special attention to the awesome playing by clarinettist Janfie van Strien and accordion player Theo van Tol.
Takaj Zhizn (Janfie and Alec) Springtime makes me party day and night, so much so that in early autumn I have to ask my doctor for a pill to prevent it.
Alles Kan Beter (Theo) is the Amsterdam Klezmer Band’s take on a contemporary style from Bucharest. It is characterised by the tight double-bass accompaniment and the zither, which has been replaced here by the accordion. You would be unlikely to hear the big band-like wind section in Rumania however; this is another typical Amsterdam Klezmer Band touch. Some people think it sounds more like old-school Jazz, but hey, Alles Kan Beter (Anything can be improved upon!). If it’s not actually better then at least it’s different, and it grooves like nobody’s business.
Kesikköprü (Jasper) is named after a Turkish village and a Turkish/Kurdish festival at which the band has performed three times. It means “Broken Bridge”. The melody and the rhythm are inspired by Turkish and Bulgarian music.
Op een Goppe (Job) A Kolo with attitude. The lyrics are about the band’s past, how we got to where we are today, and why I can’t go for long without a “feestje” (party)!
Vesna (Janfie and Alec) The unhappy love triangle; he loves her and she loves hard drugs. The painful choice has had to be been taken.
Netty (Joop) For my mother.
Sîrba Katoomba (Janfie) A Sîrba is an up-tempo dance from Rumania. Katoomba is a town in the breathtakingly beautiful Blue Mountains in New South Wales, Australia. Sîrba Katoomba is an equally breathtaking piece, certainly for the musicians who perform it!
The Seventh Seven (Jasper) was composed on the guitar banjo and happens to be the seventh 7/8 or 7/16 composition to be recorded by the band. The rhythm and the melodic content are inspired by Bulgarian music.
Zlabya (Joop) One of the main characters in “Le Chat du Rabbin” by Joann Sfar comes to life in a piece that attempts to emulate the original sound of Klezmer. In contrast to the many grand tuttis in the band’s oeuvre, this is a composition that allows breathing space to a number of solo passages.
Doina (Jasper) is an improvisation on guitar banjo, whereby the performer was influenced by both Greek and Eastern stringed instruments and playing techniques.
Tarantula (Jasper) A Southern European dance. Like a spider which jumps from Eastern to Western Europe and back again!
Kolodobre (Job) I originally wrote this for the di Fidl Kapelye violins, but is also turned out to be a great dance number for the Amsterdam Klezmer Band. It has us going at it all guns blazing!
Zaraza (Gijs en Alec) The title song was composed by Gijs Levelt and Alec Kopyt, who also wrote the piece Son, which was remixed by Shantel as the club hit Sadagora Hot Dub. Zaraza is about untrustworthy women, broken men’s hearts and lost souls. Saxophonist Job Chajes plays a dazzling solo over the Breaza Dance rhythm on which the piece is based.
Gde (Joop) The time was ripe for an irregular metre song. This irregularity is further expressed in the phrasing of the piece.

http://rapidshare.com/files/171055284/MartinHayesDennisCahill-WelcomeHereAgain.rar

03 - Lane To The Glen Fahy's [02:51]

Irish fiddle virtuoso Martin Hayes and Chicago-born guitarist Dennis Cahill possess a rare, almost telepathic musical kinship. The duo's new album, Welcome Here Again, is a fresh departure; eighteen tracks, not one of them over seven minutes, but with that same burning intensity and depth of emotion found in their previous collaborations, The Lonesome Touch (1997) and Live in Seattle (1999). It was once common for Irish musicians to record one tune at a time, to make each one a self-contained masterpiece and in Welcome Here Again this tradition is revived. The mesmeric rhythms, the tantalizing slow release of melody, the extra tone from viola or tuned-down fiddle, all of that and more can be found on this album.

Welcome Here Again is the first release on Green Linnet since its acquisition by the Compass Records Group in May of 2006 and the first studio album by Hayes and Cahill in over a decade. Hayes and Cahill are featured on the cover of this month's Irish Music Magazine and have upcoming reviews in The Irish Times and The Irish Echo. Martin Hayes is to be featured in The Wall Street Journal this March and is the recipient of TG4's 2008 Gradam Ceoil Award for Traditional Musician of the Year. Hayes and Cahill will kick off their Australian tour on February 24, 2008. www.greenlinnet.com
_____________________________

Renowned Irish fiddler Martin Hayes and guitarist Dennis Cahill have been making music together since the 1980s, when the two first met up in Chicago. The pair’s newest record, Welcome Here Again, captures the magic that’s possible when two musicians are confident enough in their abilities to serve the music so fully that they disappear entirely. There’s no ego, no grandstanding with instrumental technique, just the absolute soul conviction of Hayes’ scraping bow, at its most emotionally devastating on the “The Dear Irish Boy.” Cahill’s guitar accompaniment offers a similarly delicate touch, providing a supple foundation for the fiddle. Welcome Here Again is a superb-sounding record from start to finish, abounding in space and atmosphere. “The Booley House Jig” might be the record’s finest two-minute stretch, a charming little dance tune that rolls gently by with a wink and heart-gladdening lift. www.pastemagazine.com

Mugam from Azerbaijan – Mystical Songs
The mugam classical music of Azerbaijan (like the related Arabo-Persian maqam) is shaped by the complex modal system that bears the same name. The repertoire is played not only at weddings but also at aristocratic musical soirées. It is performed with remarkable economy, requiring only a singer, a drummer, a tar player, and a performer of the plucked viola known as the kemanche. The repertoire today comprises a dozen principal suites. As classical poetry is a central element of composition, the voice is considered to be mugam’s most important instrument. A breathtaking range of vocal techniques, from exacting parlando to the most intense ornamentation, are employed to evoke the rich meanings of the texts. 12 th Century Persian poetry is also the source for the song, or ghazal repertoire, which is particularly strong in Azerbaijan . Their theme is generally about love, both sacred and profane.
This year the public is invited to discover one of the most talented representatives of the new generation of interpreters of mugam, Aygun Baylar, who is just 30 years old. Daughter of a tar player, Aygun began her musical career at the early age of 7 when she learned to play the nagara (traditional Azeri percussion). At 18 she was discovered by the musician Baylar Guliyev, who invited her to join his ensemble and became her teacher. In honour of her late teacher, Aygun Humbatova changed her name to Aygun Baylar. She completed her musical training at the National Academy of Music in Baku , and in 2002 the President of the Azerbaijan Republic awarded her the title ‘Artist Emeritus’. In 2005 at Samarkand in Uzbekistan , Aygun won the international competition Sharg taranalari.

Bodurov Trio - Stamps From Bulgaria 2008
http://rapidshare.com/files/181400869/BodurovTrio-StampsFromBulgaria.rar

Stamps from Bulgaria is the result of a long-term investigation into Bulgarian Folklore and its correlation with other music traditions and instruments. For me, there were two personal challenges in this project: as composer and as pianist.
My approach as composer was to avoid rearranging these songs, but rather to treat them as any other compositional element such as a major triad, a rhythmical phrase, intervals, etc. Thus establishing a process of de- and re-construction, which will eventually result in a new musical form, which is sometimes closer to the original than others. On selecting the songs, I searched carefully for any personal and emotional connection and/or something unique (such as odd time measure, lyrics, or just a melody), which also contained enough dramatic potential, yet leaving room for exploration. As a pianist I referred to the traditional singing and instruments in an attempt to apply their specific characteristics on the piano keyboard. I treated the piano as a melodic rather than harmonic instrument, which is its most common function.
All songs come from different regions of Bulgaria. Some are more popular than others. It is of course arguable which songs are actually Bulgarian, but this issue gives another dimension to my research and poses the question of national identity - a much discussed issue in a modern multi-cultural society.

Alminares Mediterráneos (Mediterranean Minarets) is the new CD from the Spanish sextet, Caravasar. The name means ‘caravanserai’. Their album is a Mediterranean journey, its music both ancient and modern, with new compositions informed by ancient traditions and imaginative new versions of ancient pieces. This is the real deal - definitely not the dreaded ‘world’ fuzak.

Caravasar’s members play a great many different reeds, woodwinds, percussion, lutes, classical guitar and violin. Their violinist is also a fine singer, and the ensemble effectively deploys several guests including pianist David Dorantes and santur player Juan Manuel Rubio. The tunes and songs come from Algeria, Syria, Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey, Armenia, Morocco and from members of Caravasar.

Viola de Teclas (Nyckelharpa)
Outside of Sweden, (it’s country of origin) the nyckelharpa or ‘Violas de teclas’ is an instrument hardly known.

Attracted by its sophistication and profound sound, Ana dedicated three years to teaching herself this instrument in Toledo city. This album is a reflection of the hard work involved in this musical quest and was encouraged by Carlos Beceiro, producer and collaborator. The originality of the music consists in the use of this peculiar instrument, the Swedish nyckelharpa, combining it with Spanish music. Rebecs, violas and violins are also used alongside the Viola de teclas in this original presentation of Sephardic melodies, Castilian and flamenco rhythms and Renaissance pieces that make up the album.

Ana Alcaide first became known in May 2006, when she presented her first album in Toledo, which was greatly received by the public and critics. With this piece of work, Ana began her musical career by touring all over Spain and abroad, accompanied by Carlos Bereiro.
In the city of Toledo, the music of 'Viola de Teclas' has had a special repercussion, being listened to on different occasions and being used in promotional videos and many festive occasions thus becoming for many people the `soundtrack´ of the city.
