(黑人艺人)怎么才能写出(正宗的)黑人音乐(「寻找正宗的蓝调」系列之二)
Description
「寻找正宗的蓝调」系列第二期。
早期的黑人艺人为了入行,登上全国娱乐舞台,一直面对两条道路的选择,一条是白人化,消去黑人的痕迹。这在不露脸的作曲家是比较容易实现的,但是换成要登台表演的艺人,就成了几乎不可跨越的门槛。于是大部分人选择了第二条路,就是黑人化,扮演白人主流观众眼中的标准黑人形像,他们也就最早取得了商业成功。今天我们就来聊聊几位艺人的努力。
在这期里,你会听到:
*什么是黑人音乐
*一歌两唱
*黑人与黑脸表演
*James Bland 写白人歌
*Ernest Hogan 和 Coon Song
*Will Marion Cook 和黑人音乐剧的诞生
