大大大推薦!!様々な宗教の集会を捉えたフィールドレコーディング作!!主に都市環境を調査するプロジェクトZimmerFreiの一員として活動、ソロではSecond SleepやYerevan Tapes、Xingにサウンドスケープや音響作品を残しているMassimo Carozzi。氏がAgnese Cornelioと共に調査した、礼拝堂や教会、倉庫、体育館、市庁舎等で行われている宗教の儀式の現場を録音した非常に興味深いLP作。ユダヤ、カトリック、イスラムなど、様々な団体の集会所で音楽、環境音、会話を収集、現場の音楽や音が持つ役割及び意味をダイレクトに提示した傑作。









Prayer halls, churches, warehouses, oratories, gyms, municipal halls: these are just some of the places where the various religious communities that inhabit Bologna (Orthodox, Evangelical, Coptic, Jewish, Catholic, Muslim and others) meet to officiate their rites, or simply to gather. In these formal and informal places of worship and sociability, sound and music are foundational and unifying elements through which liturgy meets collective practice. Massimo Carozzi and Agnese Cornelio collected music, environmental recordings and conversations in the meeting places of the different religious communities, in order to investigate the role and meaning that music and sound have within these contexts and to restore their linguistic-cultural and sound specificities, between the collective dimension of the community, and the personal dimension of the faithful, between memory and imagination.

A project by Massimo Carozzi and Agnese Cornelio.
