Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan "En Concert A Paris" [CD]

価格: 2,937円(税込)
Label: Ocora

パキスタンの伝統音楽歌手/カッワーリーの第一人者であるヌスラット・ファテ・アリー・ハーン率いるグループが1985年に録音した名盤コンサート・シリーズの一つ。オリジナルは1986年に同Ocoraから出ていたLPのCD復刻版。ハルモニウム、タブラ、コーラス(6人)といったかなり大所帯の編成で、ヌスラットの独唱から徐々に激しい掛け合いへと発展、全体のテンポも加速し超絶技巧のボーカルで即興歌唱が始まるという驚異的テクニックを凝縮した名演。録音状態も最高。
