So I want to spend the rest of this class and most of the next one on the music from the show “The Lion King" as a way of summarizing some of the technical distinctions between typical western music and the non-western music that we've been studying. Now the African influence on the music is clear, the story takes place in Africa. So the director got a South African composer to write songs with a distinctly African sound. And the songs even include words from African languages. But we'll get back to the African influence later. First let's turn to the music that was written for the shadow puppet scenes in “The Lion King", music based on the Indonesian music used in the shadow puppet theater of that region.
所以我想用今天剩下的和下一節(jié)課的大部分時間來分析《獅子王》中的音樂,從而總結(jié)一下我們所學(xué)過的西方音樂和非西方音樂在技術(shù)上的不同。非洲對這個音樂劇有很大的影響,故事發(fā)生在非洲,所以導(dǎo)演請了南非的音樂家來寫一些很具有南非風(fēng)格的音樂。歌曲中甚至包括了非洲的語言。我們等一會兒再來討論非洲對這部音樂劇的影響?,F(xiàn)在先看一下《獅子王》中手影戲那一幕所用的音樂,它是根據(jù)印尼手影戲的音樂改編的。
