V.A. / IT WAS MIGHTY ! , the Early Days Of Irish Music In London

The Voice Of The People

1950年代ロンドンで奏でられたアイリッシュ音楽の貴重録音が蘇る
トピック“民衆の声”シリーズの最新作!
イギリス各地の伝承音楽を紹介する老舗レーベルのトピック・レコードがリリースしてきた〈民衆の声〉シリーズ。2年振りのリリースとなるこの2016年第一弾は、50年代ロンドンでアイルランド系移民達が奏でた音楽を紹介する。当時沢山のアイルランドの若者達は仕事を求めてロンドンに上京しており、その中にはアマチュアの優れた演奏家も多くいた。彼らがコミュニティの中で行っていた演奏は、「アイルランドよりもロンドンの方が優れたアイリッシュ・ミュージックを聴くことが出来る」との評判を得るほどだった。その当時の録音をディスク3枚に収めた本作には、マイケル・ゴーマン、ボビー・ケイシーら、後に名匠として知られるようになる演奏家達の演奏も収録しており、活き活きとし、人間味溢れるアイリッシュ音楽のリアルな姿を伝えてくれる。 (サプライヤーインフォより)
