concone by miho ota + tatsuro yokoyama

コンコーネは19世期イタリアで作られた声楽家のための教則集。ヴォカリーズとピアノ伴奏で構成されています。歌詞は無く、母音のみで歌唱することを基本としメロディは簡素ですがクラシカルで美しい。

隣家から漏れ聞こえる声楽家のレッスンの風景を想い描いて作った作品です。柔らかな陽だまりのように、あなたの暮らしに寄り添うことを願って。

最後に尊敬する作曲家の言葉を綴ります。

『芸術家はまず何をおいても信念、神への信仰、芸術への信念を抱懐すべきである。芸術家は希望を開かねばならぬ。そしてまた、芸術家は仁愛の心を持たねばならぬ。愛する心こそ人の最後のものである。すべての創造の中の唯一の本体は偉大な、そして神聖な慈悲深い愛である。』作曲家ヴァンサン・ダンディ

"Concone" is the collection of singing exercises for singers, which was made in Italy in the 19th century. It consists of vocalise and piano accompaniment. There is no lyrics, and it is based on singing only vowels. The melody is simple but classical and beautiful.

I produced this album to imagine the atmosphere of a vocalist's lesson that can be heard from the next door.
I hope this album could sit closer to your life, like a gentle sunny place.

Lastly, I quote the words of the composer I respect.

"An artist must have at least Faith, faith in God and faith in his art.
An artist should practice Hope.
An artist should be inspired by a splendid Charity. To love should be his aim in life; for the moving principle of all creation is divine and charitable Love."
(Vincent D'indy)
