Lao Traditional Music 2013 4 (ຂັບທຸ້ມຫຼວງພະບາງ) | A female vocalist sings this loud chant like folk song in a foreign language. The tempo is medium fast with vocal backup, rhythmic small hand cymbals and xylophone like instruments. The audio quality is inferior so the music is incoherent. This song is a live performance or concert with ambient sounds. The song is loud, lilting, chant-like, meditative, droning, hynoptic, melodious and classical. This song is a Classical Laos Folk song. | 2013-04-27T04:36:46Z | vkone kone | ຂັບທຸ້ມຫຼວງພະບາງສະບັບເກົ່າ ນຳສະແດງໂດຍຄະນະສິນລະປະວັນນະຄະດີເຮືອນວັດທະນທຳພວງຈຳປາ ເນຶ່່່ອງໃນໂອກາດໄປສະແດງທີ່ປະເທດຝຮັ່ງ. | ["Folk music", "Music", "Musical instrument", "Rattle (instrument)", "Percussion"] | ["female singer", "medium fast tempo", "lilting", "chant like", "droning", "hynoptic", "folk song", "classical song", "laos classical song", "laos folk song", "melodic", "extemporaneous", "incoherent music", "live performance", "ambient auditorium sounds", "people talking", "clapping", "amateur recording", "lao folk music", "vocal backup", "small hand cymbals", "xylophone like instrument", "classical music", "laotian classical music", "chanting", "meditative", "soothing"] | 7 | 8MbxazeMw2E | 917 | |

Sally Beamish - Awuya (performed by Anne Denholm) | This is the live recording of a classical music recital. There is a harp being played in an innovative manner that combines both the melodic and the rhythmic aspects of the instrument. The atmosphere of the piece is dreamy. It could be used in the soundtrack of a calm video game or a nature documentary. | 2014-01-28T08:21:30Z | Sally Beamish Music | Music by Sally Beamish Performed by Anne Denholm Produced by Laurie Irvine Performed by the outstanding young harpist, Anne Denholm, the piece was commissioned by Glasgow University for Professor Keith Vickerman, to celebrate his groundbreaking research in the field of African Sleeping Sickness. Awuya is inspired by the changing forms of deadly trypanosomes, by Central African drums and harp, and by a lullaby from a tribe decimated by sleeping sickness in the 1940s. The original words of the lullaby, sung to a little girl called Awuya, are hauntingly reminiscent of the symptoms of the disease. In his new film, Laurie Irvine has incorporated these ideas, enhancing Anne's powerful performance.

Sextet, by Steve Reich (FULL PERFORMANCE) | The tune is played by two vibraphones at the same time. The bright character of the instrument gives the piece a playful aura. It could be used as a ringtone or an alarm tone due to its generic, repeated nature. | 2015-04-06T19:56:13Z | Vic Firth | Sextet, by Steve Reich Performed by Yale Percussion Group Jonny Allen | Garrett Arney | Doug Perry | Terry Sweeney | Georgi Videnov | Mari Yoshinaga I.

[Fast] - 20:12 --- ABOUT THE PIECE: Sextet was commissioned by Laura Dean Dancers and Musicians and by the French Government for the Nexus Percussion Ensemble. The first performance under the title Music for percussion and Keyboards was given at the Centre Pompidou in Paris on 19 December 1984 by Nexus with guest artists playing keyboards. The last movement was then revised in January 1985 and the title shortened to Sextet. The American premiere was presented by Laura Dean Dancers and Musicians at Brooklyn Academy of Music’s New Wave Festival on 31 October 1985 as the music for Ms. Dean’s Impact. The American concert premiere by Steve Reich and Musicians was performed on the Great performers Series at Avery Fisher Hall on 20 January 1986. Sextet (1985) for 4 percussionists and 2 keyboard players is score for 3 marimbas, 2 vibraphones, 2 bass drums, crotales, sticks, tam-tam, 2 pianos and 2 synthesizers. The duration is about 28 minutes. The work is in five movements played without pause. The relationship of the five movements is that of an arch form A-B-C-B-A. The first and last movements are fast, the second and fourth moderate and the third, slow. Changes of tempo are made abruptly at the beginning of new movements by metric modulation to either get slower or faster. Movements are also organized harmonically wit the chord cycle for the first and fifth, another for the second and fourth, and yet another for the third. The harmonies used are largely dominant chords with added tones creating a somewhat darker, chromatic and more varied harmonic language were suggested by The Desert Music (1984). Percussion instruments mostly produce sounds of relatively short duration. In this piece I was interested in overcoming that limitation. The use of the bowed vibraphone, not merely as … | ["Music", "Musical instrument", "Marimba, xylophone", "Vibraphone", "Percussion"] | ["vibraphone", "percussion", "repeated theme", "melodic", "playful"] | 9 | YgX85tZf1ts | 3304 |
