专辑介绍:
老艾的木琴总是那么迷人。。。
一气呵成！
以高速、精準的结他造诣见称的World Fusion结他手Al di Meola，踏入二十一世纪的首两张作品《The Grande Passion：World Sinfonia》、《Flesh on Flesh》依然令人神往，到了07年的《Music of Astor Piazzolla》，稍为普通了点，但仍可见他的结他气焰和气势十分猛。今次这张2011新作在意念上仍是近年一贯的World Fusion格局，但就更顾及Contemporary Jazz的大格局组织和经营，再酌量加入Jazz Rock、Flamenco、Tango及North African音乐，整体上更见一气呵成，而且邀来合作的都是爵士界的一等一高手，如Charlie Haden、Gonzalo Rubalcaba、Peter Erskine……与他「撞」出相当具爆炸力的化合作用。精彩！我觉得比《Music of Astor Piazzolla》更杰出。

Editorial Reviews
Following the much ballyhooed Return To Forever reunion tour of 2008, guitarist Al Di Meola began refocusing his energies on his World Sinfonia band. Live in Seattle and Elsewhere documented his tightly-knit chemistry in concert on a 2009 tour with his acoustic ensemble of accordionist Fausto Beccalossi, second guitarist Kevin Seddiki, bassist Victor Miranda, drummer Peter Kazsas and Di Meola's longtime collaborator Gumbi Ortiz on cajon and assorted hand percussion. Di Meola's rhythmically-charged flamenco and tango inspired originals revealed his knack for advanced harmonies along with his embracing of simple, beautiful, alluring melodies. And although he may be a romantic at heart, he showed that he is still very much capable of flashing those legendary chops that graced his `70s classics like Elegant Gypsy and Casino.
On Di Meola's latest outing, Pursuit of Radical Rhapsody, the guitar virtuoso and world music pioneer deals in more evocative and compelling sounds with his World Sinfonia ensemble, delivering hauntingly beautiful and deeply moving music from track to track. The collection kicks off with the entrancing, suite-like "Siberiana," which opens with some tender call-and-response between Beccalossi's accordion and Di Meola's nylon string acoustic guitar before building to a turbulent section with searing electric guitar lines on top. On the affecting "Paramour's Lullaby," Di Meola takes a more deliberate approach on electric guitar, spinning warm, lyrical lines over the beautiful harmonies before engaging in spirited call-and-response with Beccalossi near the end of the piece. The rhythmically charged "Mawazine" (featuring percussionist Mino Cinelu) is broken up into two parts on the album and showcases some typically tasty electric guitar work by the leader.
The lushly cinematic "Michelangelo's 7th Child" (featuring Hungary's Sturcz String Quartet) has Di Meola utilizing subtle MIDI textures and colorations on his acoustic guitar while also showcasing some virtuosic runs. "Gumbiero" is a stirring Latin number underscored by Ortiz's churning conga work. Sparks fly between Di Meola's signature fretboard bravado on both acoustic and electric, Beccalossi's facile accordion playing and Gonzalo Rubalcaba's dazzling piano work on this spirited offering. "Full Frontal Contrapuntal" features some chops-busting unisons and intricate exchanges between Al's MIDI-tinged acoustic guitar and Beccalossi's accordion. The surging "This Way Before" and the evocative, flamenco inspired "Fireflies" both feature Di Meola alternating between acoustic and distortion-laced electric guitar licks. The stirring Latin flavored "Destination Gonzalo" and "Radical Rhapsody" both feature virtuosic contributions from pianist Rubalcaba and former Weather Report drummer Peter Erskine. The poignant "Bona" is a tender offering with the Sturcz String Quartet that features some of Di Meola's most lyrical playing on the record. The leader also turns in soothing interpretations of two classic pop tunes, the Beatles' "Strawberry Fields" and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," both of which feature the great jazz bassist Charlie Haden.
引用
Al Di Meola：意大利裔吉他手，在Berklee音乐学院就读时因爵士钢琴家Chick Corea的赏识，而加入其融合爵士乐团Return To Forever，成为70年代融合爵士乐的重要角色之一。而当Return To Forever于80年解散之后，他逐渐回归使用木吉他演奏，并与融合爵士吉他大师John McLaughlin、佛朗明哥吉他好手Paco De Lucia等人一同巡回演出。三人所录制的Friday Night in San Francisco(1982)与Passion, Grace & Fire(1983)更成为爵士吉他的重要名盘。自85年起他组成了自己的乐团The Al Di Meola Project，并不断地在各种音乐风格以及电吉他、木吉他之间来回游走，试图打破一般乐迷对他的"速弹吉他手"的印象。他也吸收许多拉丁美州及其他世界音乐的元素，融入他的演奏当中: 如1985年的Cielo E Terra，便带有浓厚的神秘意味。其重要作品还包括了World Sinfonia(1991)、Heart of the Immigrants(1993)及Orange and Blue(1994)等。又如1996年的Plays Piazzolla，则是他对阿根廷探戈音乐大师Astor Piazzolla的致敬专辑。在2000年的新专辑The Grande Passion中，他更与多伦多管弦乐团合作，展现他深厚的古典基础与作曲功力。
To conclude, I would say this is DiMeola's best album since 'The Grande Passion' while in terms of its melodic content it actually outshines that album in at least one sense, namely its non-reliance on the use of a single 'traditional' & 'familiar' musical phrase, from start to finish. If the key to artistic brilliance is to create something that will never remind you of anything or anybody else, maybe one could say that DiMeola has truly realised his artistic potential with this album, which provides very fresh listening.
