作曲 : Sergei Prokofiev |
[00:00.01] |
The band we just heard playing is called "A BigBand". |
[00:04.00] |
That's the name used for a large scale of Jazz ensembles. |
[00:08.49] |
And today, it's through different types of Jazz that you’re going to learn a story of Peter and the Wolf. |
[00:14.49] |
A story unlike any other. |
[00:17.49] |
It will be told through music, written by Sergei Prokofiev. |
[00:21.00] |
And just this once,played by the instruments which made up and Jazz band. |
[00:27.49] |
How?It's very simple. |
[00:29.49] |
Each character in the story is represented by a specific Big Band instrument, |
[00:34.49] |
which will play a short music phase that easy to remember. |
[00:38.49] |
Let's see how it works. |
[00:40.98] |
Take the bird for example:he's the friend of Peter,our hero. |
[00:45.50] |
Wow,the bird will be represented by the flute and muted trumpet. |
[00:57.50] |
The unhappy duck will be represented by soprano saxophone. |
[01:02.20] |
This is the highest pitch instrument in the saxophone family. |
[01:05.49] |
It is small and strict.Listen. |
[01:27.10] |
The Tanner Saxophone will stand in for the velvet-pawl cat. |
[01:44.50] |
As for the grandfather, grumbling into his beard. |
[01:47.80] |
He would be personified by the Baritone Sax, |
[01:50.40] |
the biggest and lowest pitch sax of them all. |
[02:07.20] |
Here's the big grey wolf in the woods. |
[02:10.10] |
His sound comes from the trombones and the tuba. |
[02:36.99] |
Oh,I nearly forgot Peter! |
[02:39.50] |
Our cheerful smiling hero. |
[02:41.40] |
He would be represented by the rhythm section of the Big Band. |
[02:45.20] |
The piano, bass and guitar--Three string instruments. |
[03:04.99] |
At the end of the story, you will hear the hunters. |
[03:09.00] |
They are personified by all of the musicians in the band playing together. |
[03:34.20] |
And the hunters fire their guns,of course you will easily recognize the drums in this part. |
[03:46.20] |
Now then,do you remember all those characters and the instruments that represent them? |
[03:50.80] |
Peter,the wolf,the hunters,the bird and the duck and grandfather and his cat? |
[03:56.03] |
All of them? |
[03:58.40] |
So now,let's start our story,right now! |
