骄阳似你

此刻我们仍像刚入行的新手一样兴奋，我们还年轻，还爱着这件事。

世界正在飞速变化，音乐也并不例外：它的生产过程、载体以及传播路径早已面目全非。

我常常幻想一百年以后的音乐会是什么样子，吉他到底能弹到多快？音乐现场还需要喇叭吗？或者说根本不需要一个实体的音乐现场了，在家里戴上一个什么设备就可以参加一个身临其境体感更加真实酷炫的音乐节。还需要实体唱片吗？还需要黑胶唱机吗？我的答案是应该不需要了。这些东西终究都会成为老古董，陈列在云端博物馆里。

爵士乐也在变，老英雄轮流谢幕，新浪潮暗流涌动，接受变化顺应时代，还是打破常规逆流而上，音乐家们面临着前所未有的考验。

幸好我们还拥有世界上最棒的观众，你们正在以澎湃的激情史无前例地介入到这场文化变革中来。

赶在新的算法还来不及统治地球之前，黑的白的黄的真的假的AI的，所有的“爵士乐”，都来吧。

请你们编织我们，用青春的金线。

从科特迪瓦小镇迪沃到欧美最大的舞台，从 Woya 的鼓手到 Zap Mama 的贝斯手再到做自己的“Afro Groove Queen”——Manou Gallo 带着勇气与才华，一路披荆斩棘。

体验过她的演出后，你会立刻认出她的独特：她在贝斯上展现出纯粹的力量，融合了爵士、放克、律动和非洲节拍。在她的手中，贝斯有时成为打击乐元素，将律动推向迷人的高度。难怪 Bootsy Collins 称她为“非洲的贝斯女王”，其他巨星如 Manu Dibango、Mamady Keita、Wyclef Jean、Marcus Miller 和 Lucas van Meerwijk 也纷纷与她同台合作。

《福布斯》杂志非洲版评选的“全球十大最具影响力非洲贝斯手”，她是其中唯一的女性；在贝宁举办的非洲最佳乐器演奏家音乐节（Festival MIA）特别为她设置了一场致敬演出，并向她颁发了“非洲最佳乐手”奖…… Manou Gallo 用实力证明，自己是当之无愧的非洲-欧洲音乐领军女性和世界上最杰出的贝斯手之一。

William Hooker

William Hooker 是一位音乐家、作曲家和诗人，被誉为“打破常规的音乐先锋，其世代中最具创新性的音乐家和鼓手之一”。他拥有超过 70 张由他领衔的录音作品，涵盖爵士、新音乐、实验音乐和跨领域的艺术形式（包括舞蹈、默片和口头表演艺术等）。他曾在多个知名场馆和音乐节进行演出，包括林肯中心、沃兹沃思雅典娜博物馆、伊丽莎白女王音乐厅、The Knitting Factory、Roulette、蒙特利尔爵士音乐节、维尔纽斯爵士音乐节和维多利亚维尔国际当代音乐节等。与他合作过的音乐家包括 Billy Bang、William Parker、Thurston Moore、Roy Campbell、Elliot Sharp 和 David Murray 等。

William Hooker is a musician, composer and a poet recognized as “an iconoclast, and one of the most innovative musicians and drummers of his generation”. With over 70 recordings as a leader—encompassing jazz, new music, experimental music and multi-disciplinary forms of expression (including dance, silent film and spoken word), he has presented his work at Lincoln Center, Wadsworth Atheneum, Queen Elizabeth Hall, The Knitting Factory, and Roulette. He has also presented his work at Montreal Jazz Festival, Vilnius Jazz Festival, and the Victoriaville Music Festival and such. Musicians he has collaborated with include Billy Bang, William Parker, Thurston Moore, Roy Campbell, Elliot Sharp, David Murray and many more.

John King

John King 是一位多才多艺的作曲家、吉他与中提琴演奏家。作为一名极为高产的创作者，他不仅活跃于实验音乐领域，他还与众多舞蹈、视觉艺术、多媒体艺术、诗歌、戏剧等各领域的知名艺术家和团体、机构跨界合作。

他的多部弦乐四重奏作品在纽约各个知名前卫音乐场地和音乐节展演，他也受包括曼海姆芭蕾舞团、蒙特卡罗芭蕾舞团等和莫斯·康宁汉舞蹈团等在内的多个国际知名舞团的委托进行音乐创作和即兴演奏。此外，他还创作了 7 部实验歌剧，在世界各大戏剧节/音乐节上演，并为 Peter Kratz 执导的五部戏剧创作了歌曲和配乐。

John King is a versatile composer, guitarist and violist. As a highly prolific creator, he is active in the field of experimental music and collaborates across disciplines with renowned artists and groups in dance, visual arts, multimedia, poetry, and theater.

His string quartet works have been premiered at prominent avant-garde music venues and festivals in New York.

Additionally, he has composed seven experimental operas, performed at major theater and music festivals worldwide, and has written songs and scores for five plays directed by Peter Kratz.

Maria Bertel

Maria Bertel 是一位丹麦长号手、即兴演奏家和作曲家。她从嗡鸣和噪音音乐中汲取灵感，经过扩音处理后的乐器原声与泛音、细微的动作、金属摩擦和呼吸声交织缠绕，在她的音乐中呈现出平时难以听到的细节与层次，仿佛一部不断堆叠和变化的有机体。

在个人计划外，她还在四人自由即兴乐队 Selvhenter 和与 Nina Garcia 的即兴噪音二重奏中作曲和演奏。她也是 2010 年成立的哥本哈根艺术团体 eget værelse 的五位联合创始人之一。她曾受邀参演欧洲众多的音乐节，如瑞士 B-Sides、法国 Meteo、英国 Supersonic、丹麦的 Gong Tomorrow 和 Roskilde 等。

Maria Bertel is a Danish trombone player, improviser and composer. The acoustic sound of her instrument amplified creates an output that draws inspiration from drone and noise music. What is normally not hearable is presenting itself: movements, metal and breath become a swirling part of her compositions; changing organic patterns are emerging, and tiny sounds become brutally clear as well as the range of overtones of the instrument.

Apart from her work as a solo artist she performs and composes in groups like the

notorious four-piece noise rock band Selvhenter and the improvised noise duo with Nina Garcia. She is also one of five co-founders of the Copenhagen based art collective eget værelse founded in 2010. She has presented her music in various festivals like Supersonic Festival (UK), Gong Tomorrow (DK), Roskilde Festival (DK), B-Sides Festival (CH), and Meteo Festival (FR).

老丹 Lao Dan

老丹，实验/即兴音乐人，多乐器演奏者，以竹笛与萨克斯管为主要乐器。他的音乐融合了摇滚乐、实验音乐、噪音与中国传统民族音乐，作品富于即兴灵感与美学张力，常在东方和西方、古代与现代的激烈对撞之间为观众带来强压迫感的听觉体验。

在过去十年中，老丹活跃于国内与国际音乐场景中，曾赴美国、日本进行个人巡演，并与海内外诸多音乐家展开合作，受到听众与业界的极大肯定，在多个国家共发表二十余张独奏与合作专辑。 

Lao Dan is an experimental/improvisational musician and multi-instrumentalist, primarily playing dizi(Chinese bamboo flute) and saxophone. His music blends rock, experimental, noise, and traditional Chinese folk music, characterized by improvisational inspiration and aesthetic tension, offering audiences a powerful auditory experience through intense contrasts between East and West, ancient and modern.

Over the past decade, Lao Dan has been active in both China and international music scenes, touring the U.S. and Japan and collaborating with numerous musicians worldwide, earning significant acclaim from audiences and industry professionals. He has released over 20 solo and collaborative albums across various countries.

林荣一 1950 年 1 月生于东京，中学时开始在铜管乐队中演奏萨克斯。

他在高中时期曾即兴加入过山下洋辅三重奏在新宿 Pit Inn 的现场演出；若干年后偶然与山下重聚，他作为特邀成员与当时的山下洋辅三重奏进行了欧洲巡演，并发行了专辑 In Europe 1983。1990 年，他组建了自己的乐队 MAZURU，在德国纽伦堡爵士音乐节上演出并大获好评。此后，他与大西顺子、明田川荘之、高濑亚纪和森山威男等人合作，并开始出现在更多专辑中。他还广泛进行作曲和编曲，其中“Naadam”成为渋さ知らズ （涉不知）乐团的代表曲目。

目前，林荣一的多元化的音乐风格在众多项目中有所展现，包括涉谷毅管弦乐团、与片山广明组成的双人乐队 De Ga Show、与板桥文夫的二重奏，以及与年轻爵士音乐家组成的 Gatos Meeting 乐队等。

这场演出是林荣一的中国首演。

Born in Tokyo in January 1950, Eiichi Hayashi began playing the saxophone in a brass band during his middle school years.

As a high school student, he spontaneously joined Yosuke Yamashita Trio for a performance at the Shinjuku Pit Inn, and years later he coincidentally reunited with Yamashita and joined the then Yosuke Yamashita Trio as a “plus one” member. Their European tour performances were released as the live album In Europe 1983.

In 1990, he formed his own band MAZURU. They performed at the Nuremberg Jazz Festival in Germany, receiving great acclaim. Subsequently, he collaborated with Junko Onishi, Soushi Akitagawa, Aki Takase, Takeo Moriyama etc. and began appearing on more albums. He also extensively composed and arranged music, among which "Naadam" has become a signature tune for Shibusashirazu Orchestra.

Currently, Hayashi's diverse musical persona can be heard in various projects, including the Tsuyoshi Shibuya Orchestra, the duo De Ga Show with Hiroaki Katayama, a duo with Fumio Itabashi, and Gatos Meeting, a band with young jazz musicians.

This performance will be Eiichi Hayashi’s debut in China.

两位来自葡萄牙的音乐家都是当今欧洲自由即兴音乐界最坚实和最受欢迎的声音之一——常驻里斯本的小号手 Luis Vicente 从纯即兴到作曲都得心应手，与众多的国际知名音乐家都有过合作；Vasco Trilla 则活跃在巴塞罗那，是当地音乐界最多才多艺和富有创意的鼓手之一，参与了超过 100 张专辑的录制。他们的二重奏在发行了两张专辑之后，邂逅了英国传奇低音提琴演奏家 John Edwards（曾与 Evan Parker、Sunny Murray、Derek Bailey、Peter Brötzmann 等名家有过合作），并在葡萄牙举办了一系列音乐会。听众的热烈反馈和他们之间奇妙的化学反应让他们一拍即合，三人决定组成一个长期合作的乐队，并计划未来展开更多活动。

这个三人组拥抱自由爵士的创造性和即兴演奏的微妙变化，穿梭于织锦般丰富多彩的声音之中，使每场演出都独一无二且充满激情。

Lisbon-based trumpet player Luis Vicente and one of the most active, versatile and creative drummers of the Barcelona scene, Vasco Trilla, joined forces with British legendary double bassist John Edwards, who has played with improvisation-music giants such as Evan Parker, John Butcher, Derek Bailey and Peter Brötzmann, after a series of concerts in Portugal that has gained enthusiastic feedback. They realized the good chemistry between each other and soon decided to establish the trio. Embracing the creative side of free jazz with the nuances of free improvisation, the trio navigates through myriads of sound tapestries making each concert a unique and full-of-energy performance.

Zoh Amba 是一位来自美国田纳西州的作曲家、萨克斯手和长笛手。她的音乐是前卫、噪音和赞美诗的奇妙融合体。全球知名的音乐博客 Stereogum 称她为“当今最耀眼的前卫爵士新星之一”。

她曾求学于旧金山音乐学院和新英格兰音乐学院，并在纽约跟随美国著名萨克斯演奏家 David Murray 学习。在那之前，她大部分时间都在家附近的森林中进行作曲和萨克斯管的练习。如今的她，已经发展出独特而强烈的个人风格。

Amba 在 2022 年发行了四张唱片，包括由先锋爵士名家 John Zorn 担纲制作、并在其著名厂牌 Tzadik 发布的首张专辑 O, Sun。她曾与多位闻名遐迩的音乐家有过合作，如鼓手 Jim White、Brian Chase 和低音提琴手 William Parker 等。此外，Amba 也受邀在众多知名场馆和音乐节演出。

此次，她携手纽约当代爵士新星、屡获殊荣的钢琴家 Lex Korten，新生代实验/即兴低音提琴手 Caroline Morton，以及与 Boredoms 和 Thurston Moore 等有过合作的、经验丰富的鼓手 Ryan Sawyer，在本届音乐节上献出他们的亚洲首秀。

Zoh Amba is a composer, saxophonist, and flutist from Tennessee. Her music blends avant-garde, noise, and devotional hymns. Before studying at the SFCM, NECMusic and studying with David Murray in New York, she spent most of her time writing and practicing saxophone in the forest near her home. Today, her powerfully unique avant-garde music is full of folk melodies, mesmerizing refrains, and repeated incantations. Amba released four records in 2022, including her debut record O, Sun, which was produced by John Zorn and released on the prestigious label Tzadik. She has collaborated with a variety of high profile musicians such as Jim White, William Parker, and Brian Chase. Amba has also performed at well respected venues and festivals.

This time, she joins forces with the rising star of contemporary jazz in New York and award-winning pianist Lex Korten, new-generation experimental/improvised bassist Caroline Morton, and experienced drummer Ryan Sawyer, who has collaborated with Boredoms and Thurston Moore and such, to present their Asian premiere at the OCT-LOFT Jazz Festival.

“大即兴”是为留下来的音乐家和观众而安排的加料单元。 

The Improvisation Unit is a distinctively arranged unit for the artists and audiences who stay until the last day of the festival, and are hungry for the unexpected.

John Edwards，来自英国的低音提琴手，于 20 世纪 80 年代末开始演奏，与众多即兴音乐巨头有过合作。自 1995 年以来，他一直是伦敦音乐圈中最活跃的音乐家之一，每年演出 150 至 200 场。作为一位伦敦人，他想要和我们聊聊他眼中的即兴音乐——

“自由即兴是音乐创作中最具挑战性的形式。

它最好的样子，是演奏者对每毫秒都高度敏感，能听到每个微小的声音，并且几乎能直接读懂其他音乐家内心的想法。它需要一种动物般的状态，让每种感官都在极端强度下工作，能感知到每个振动，甚至在狂风暴雨中也能听到针落的声音。

共情，分享，相互支持。

没有人能评判音乐的对错或好坏。只有即兴演奏者自己对当下的行为和反应负责——它可能成为负担，但又何尝不是一种奢侈？”

John Edwards, a British double bass player, began playing in the late 1980s and has collaborated with numerous improvisation-music giants. Since 1995, he has been one of the most active musicians on the London circuit, playing between 150 and 200 concerts a year. He is willing to share his insights on improvised music with us, as a Londoner.

“Free improvisation is the most challenging form of music-making.

At its best, the practitioners are hyper-aware every millisecond, hear every micro-sound that occurs and almost mind-read the other musicians present. It involves an animal-like state of being, where every sense works on an extreme level of intensity, where every vibration is felt, where the ear can indeed hear a pin-drop in the centre of a raging storm.

Empathy, sharing, supporting.

Nobody can judge the music to be right or wrong, good or bad. Only the improviser themself carries the responsibility of their own actions and reactions within the moment—this could be a burden but is truly a luxury.”

——————————

美国爵士作曲家、钢琴家 Thelonious Monk 无疑是爵士乐坛上一颗璀璨的明星。这位不拘一格的钢琴家为世人贡献了诸多爵士乐经典，是历史上录音最多的爵士音乐家之一。

《孟克》和《孟克在欧洲》这两部纪录片由布莱克伍德兄弟（Michael & Christian Blackwood） 精心摄制，忠实呈现了 60 年代末 Monk 于其职业生涯尾声在美国和欧洲演出和录音的珍贵片段。出镜的音乐家还有他的四重奏成员 Charlie Rouse、Larry Gales 和 Ben Riley，以及加入其欧洲巡演的 Ray Copeland、Clark Terry、Phil Woods 和 Johnny Griffin。

影片最初于 1968 年在德国电视台播出。在 2017 年 Monk 诞辰百年之际，Blackwood 公司重新发布了这两部作品。这些影像素材经过修复，焕发出新的生机，让观众得以再一次沉浸在 Monk 纯粹而震撼的音乐世界中。
