But first, when Ravi Shankar died last December after a seven-decade career as a classical composer and performer, most news reports were keen to remind us that he was the man who taught George Harrison to play the sitar. But Shankar's death meant that the mantle of most famous living sitar player fell to another of his students, his daughter Anoushka. She began learning the instruments as a young girl, and later performed regularly with her father. Anoushka Shankar has followed his classical lessons in the traditional ragas but has also taken the instrument into new musical territories. For her latest album, she's teamed up with producer Nitin Sawhney and on three tracks, with her half-sister, the singer Norah Jones. The album emerges in the wake of an eventful couple of years for Anoushka, not only the death of her father, but also marriage to the English filmmaker Joe Wright and the birth of her son. And earlier this year, she posted a video in which she revealed that she'd been sexually abused as a child by a family friend over a period of years. The new album is called Traces of You, given that the title track is one of those that features Norah. I asked Anoushka Shankar whether it was written about their father.
My experience of losing, my father was probably the hugest influence on the record. Urm, but Traces Of You is a title. I think it's more in hindsight that everyone assumes it. It's about him, but actually it was already titled that before I know. It was more of the idea of universal you, you know the you possibly being a lover or a friend or a parent or a child or God or a thing, but just the idea of traces and how we carry those with us.不过首先,当拉维·香卡于去年12月逝世,结束了长达70年的传统音乐作曲家以演奏家生涯时,大多数新闻报道都热心地提醒我们他曾教授乔治·哈里森弹奏锡塔尔琴。然而,香卡的离世意味着锡塔尔琴演奏衣钵传给了另一个著名的学生——他的女儿安努什卡肩上。安努什卡从小学习锡塔尔琴,之后定期和父亲一起演奏。安努什卡·香卡不仅向父亲学习以传统的拉格曲调演奏,还把这一乐器带进了全新的音乐领域。她和制作人Nitin Sawhney合作并完成了最新专辑,还和同父异母的姐妹诺拉·琼斯合作了三首歌曲。专辑发布前两年,安努什卡经历了人生巨大变动。父亲去世,她嫁给了英国电影制作人乔·怀特,还有了一个儿子。今年早些时候,她贴出了一段视频,透露在幼年时期曾遭受了一位家族友人的性虐待。她的新专辑名叫Traces Of You,主打歌由她和诺拉合唱。我问安努什卡专辑是否是写给她父亲的。
失去父亲无疑对我的专辑有着很大影响,嗯,不过,Traces Of You只是专辑名称。也许大家会后知后觉地猜想这是写给父亲的,但其实在我意识到之前,这张专辑就已经这样命名了。专辑要表达的思想不仅仅针对我自己,还囊括了大众。不管你是某人的爱人、朋友、父母、孩子、上帝还是一个东西,经历的事情会对我们产生影响,留下痕迹,而我们,将带着这些痕迹前行。 |
