Product Description

Album Description

Jean Ritchie is a national treasure, one of America's finest and best known traditional singers. She grew up in Viper, Kentucky, and is part of a large family, the famous "Singing Ritchies of Kentucky." The ballads on this recording are outstanding Appalachian versions of the "Child ballads," English and Scottish narrative songs collected and published by scholar Francis James Child in the late 19th century. The songs tell of true and lost love, jealousy, treachery, grief, death, and the supernatural. This reissue of her landmark Folkways recordings of British traditional ballads in Appalachia brings her clear, pure voice and timeless songs to new generations of listeners.

5.0 out of 5 stars 豊かなアパラチアの伝承歌謡, 2005/6/8
ジーン・リッチーは1922 年、ケンタッキー州ヴァイパーに生まれた。豊かなアパラチアの伝承歌謡を受け継いだ一家で、その数は三百曲に及ぶものだったという。ウィリアムズバーグのカンバーランド短期大学を1946年に卒業、ニューヨーク市ヘンリー街のセツルメントで働き始めるが、憶え親しんだ歌が子供たちとの接触に役立つことを知るのである。すぐに彼女はコーヒーハウスの人気者となり、音楽活動のキャリアが始まる。エレクトラ・レーベルを起こしたばかりのジャク・ホルツマンがたまたま彼女の録音を耳にし契約し3枚のアルバム"Jean Ritchie Sings (1952)" "Songs of Her Kentucky Mountain Family (1957)" "A Time for Singing (1962)" をリリースすることになるのである。ピーター・ポール&マリー、ジュディ・コリンズ、ジョーン・バエズ、キングストン・トリオなどが輩出、世はフォーク・リバイバルの真っ只中だったが、ジーンはまさにアパラチアの純粋な伝承を受け継いだ歌い手だった。そして彼女はその後も貴重な民俗音楽伝統を維持するために働き続けるのである。このCDは1961年にフォークウェイズからリリースされたLPを復刻したもので、19世紀後期に民謡学者F・チャイルドによって発表された「チャイルド・バラッド」を主軸とした画期的かつ貴重な記録である。ダルシマーを伴奏にした数曲を除いて無伴奏であるが、彼女の明瞭な、純粋な歌声は時間を超越したものであろう。
