Product Description

From Amazon.com

On Flood, we join British composer Jocelyn Pook as witnesses to a catastrophe, transfixed by its totality, muted by its incalculable human toll. Pook's faintly beautiful, profoundly sad music is all that hovers above her ashen, apocalyptic landscapes, one we dare not survey too long, it seems, lest we suffer the fate of Lot's wife. Pook's ability to summon such imagery--via patient, edgy, atmospheric use of voice, strings (viola, violins, cello), and electronics--is what led film director Stanley Kubrick to invite Pook's participation on the original soundtrack for Eyes Wide Shut. First released in 1997, Flood contains two selections that were modified for the film: "Migrations," a hypnotic work with Middle Eastern textures and Persian vocalists, heard during the film's orgy scenes, and "Masked Ball," where Pook achieves an ominous effect by playing the chants of Romanian priests in reverse. The album's most arresting work may be "Oppenheimer," an evolving, multicultural choral requiem prefaced by a reflection on Hindu scripture spoken Robert Oppenheimer, an inventor of the atomic bomb. It is affectingly reprised in the album's haunting final track. A bleak and somber work, and an utterly absorbing one. --Terry Wood

5.0 out of 5 stars 身震えせずには聞いていられない音楽, 2002/10/4
「Flood」はジョセリンの2枚目のアルバム。彼女はキューブリックの映画「Wide Eye Shut」のOrgyシーンで使用された音楽を手がけた事で一躍世界トップクラスのミュージシャンとして知られるようになった。実は、映画で使用された音楽も彼女の1stアルバムから起用されたもので、内容的には1stアルバム(Deluge)も2ndアルバム(Flood)もほぼ同じ。

オススメの曲は6曲:“Migration”は「Wide Eye Shout」にも使用された曲で、中東の音楽を思わせるような曲。”Romeo and Juliet” は、二人のコーラス(ロミオとジュリエット?)がとてもキレイだが悲しさを感じさせる。”Oppenheimer”は原子爆弾の発明者の名で、彼がニューメキシコでの核実験後語った名セリフ「We knew the world would not be the same...」が冒頭でそのまま使用されている、その後は中東のコーラスと西洋のコーラスが上手くミックスされている。”Blow the Wind/Pie Jesu”は3人のコーラスからなる曲で、キレイで癒される曲。”Masked Ball”も「Wide Eye Shout」に使用された曲。元々“Backwards Priests”という曲名で、弦楽器をバックグラウンドにローマの聖歌を逆回しに流している。悪魔と天使が交互に語っているようで、不気味だがなんかいい。”La Blanche Traversee”はクラシック音楽にあわせて女性ヴォーカルが歌っているだけだが、これもオススメ。

こんな素晴らしいアルバムが日本で発売されていない(輸入版のみ)のが残念。個人的にはエンヤよりいいと思う。エンヤが好きな人にはこのアルバムもオススメです。
