中津川市加子母(かしも)に移住して活動している2人の音楽家が、15~17日に地元で「加子母 木の香る音楽祭」を開く。ゲストの声楽家とともに演奏を披露、2人が指導する小中学生もバイオリンやピアノを奏でる。音楽祭は7回目。山里に音楽が根づきつつある。
チェンバロ製作家兼演奏家の渡辺敏晴さん(58)と作曲家兼ピアニストの原優美さん(67)。渡辺さんは群馬県、原さんは愛知県から移り住み、県内外で演奏活動をしている。
東京芸術大とノルウェーの国立音楽大で学んだ渡辺さんは、チェンバロの躯体(くたい)となる良質の針葉樹を求めて「東濃ヒノキ」の里・加子母に8年前にやって来た。元診療所を転用した住まい兼工房でチェンバロを製作。それを車に積み、各地に出向いて演奏している。加子母の子らにはバイオリンを教えている。<岐阜)移住した音楽家2人、音楽祭企画 中津川市加子母:朝日新聞デジタル より一部引用>

チェンバロ ≒ クラヴサン ≒ ハープシコードの音色がポピュラー音楽で はやった時代があった。
1950年代から1970年代初頭にかけてだ。
特に60年代中期からロック・ミュージックにも使われるようになり、時代の気分を表す音色と認識されるようになった。歌謡曲でも1967年ころからしばしば用いられた。
チェンバロ(独: Cembalo, 伊: clavicembalo)は、鍵盤を用いて弦をプレクトラムで弾いて発音する鍵盤楽器である。英語ではハープシコード (harpsichord)、フランス語ではクラヴサン (clavecin) という。
狭義にはグランド・ピアノのような翼形の楽器を指すが、広義には同様の発音機構を持つヴァージナルやスピネット等を含めた撥弦鍵盤楽器を広く指す。
チェンバロはルネサンス音楽やバロック音楽で広く使用されたが、18世紀後半からピアノの興隆と共に徐々に音楽演奏の場から姿を消した。しかし20世紀には古楽の歴史考証的な演奏のために復興され、現代音楽やポピュラー音楽でも用いられている。<チェンバロ – Wikipedia>
角川映画第一回作品『犬神家の一族』(1976/10公開)のメインテーマ『愛のバラード』(作編曲:大野雄二)のあの音をおれはずっとチェンバロだと思っていたらそうではなくダルシマーなる古典打弦楽器なのだそうだ。

ザ・ヴァイオレッツ – 悲しきチェンバロ(1969/08/01)
作詞:高士ミチ、作編曲:小野崎孝輔

上掲曲はCM曲やドラマの主題歌を多く歌ったザ・ヴァイオレッツがミノルフォンのハーヴェスト・レーベルに所属した時代に出したもの。出来はイマイチながらチェンバロを全面的にフィーチャーしている上、詞の内容とは関係なくタイトルにまで「チェンバロ」が入っていて、いかにも60年代末という感じだ。
そしてチェンバロと言ったらこの4曲。

1st Recording Of “There’s A Kind Of Hush (AllOver The World)”
Best-remembered for their 1966 chart-topper “Winchester Cathedral”, The New Vaudeville Band was a group of session musicians and the brainchild of English songwriter and record producer Geoff Stephans, who co-wrote “There’s A Kind Of Hush” with Les Reed. Recorded only weeks before Herman’s Hermits’ subsequent hit version, this track was introduced on the “Winchester Cathedral” LP.

It was a fairly even contest, as the Animals version of the song peaked higher (#29) but spent one fewer weeks on the Hot 100. The Outsiders brief four-hit 1966 splash ended after this release, with only a handful of’Bubbling-Unders’ to follow. Lead singer Sonny Geraci would return in the’70s with his new group Climax, of “Precious And Few” fame.

Mid-teenage Janis Ian wrote and recorded this then-controversial song about interracial teen romance in 1965. The single was eventually released the following year and received some regional radio play and record sales but did not chart nationally. Then in April 1967 on the CBS-TV special “Inside Pop: The Rock Revolution,” a very-impressed Leonard Bernstein discussed the record and introduced Janis performing “Society’s Child.” It was then that the record took off. Here’s that television clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=300LiZtuDPw

2度目の引用。
The Walt Disney company’s record label Buena Vista boasted both Mouseketeer singing star Annette Funicello and veteran composer-arranger Tutti Camarata, who conducted the studio sessions. In early 1960 each of them released versions of this Paul Anka-penned song, Annette in a vocal titled “It’s Really Love” (included in her “Annette Sings Anka” LP) and the posted instrumental 45 single by Tutti’s Trumpets called “Toot Sweet.” Anka’s original vocal recording of “It’s Really Love” had been heard in the soundtrack of the early 1959 French film “Faibles Femmes” (aka “Women Are Weak,” aka “Three Murderesses”).
Then in 1962, upon the departure of Jack Paar from NBC’s “Tonight Show,” this tune was chosen as the program’s new opening theme; but part of the deal was that new host Johnny Carson would take over publishing rights and also have his name added as co-writer of Anka’s song, thus receiving a major chunk of the performance royalties. So we commonly see the Anka-Carson composer credit associated with what has over the years become best known as “Johnny’s Theme.”
