根據(jù)音樂(lè)類型的不同鼓手會(huì)怎么變化演奏的方式
 
來(lái)聽(tīng)今天的講解:
 
A: So Tres, you are a drummer.
 
特雷斯，你是名鼓手。
 
B: Yes, I am indeed. And for all that negative baggage that comes with that term, yes I am a drummer.
 
對(duì)，我是鼓手。雖然好多人對(duì)鼓手有負(fù)面的看法，不過(guò)我確實(shí)是名鼓手。
 
A: Wait wait, so you say that there's negative terms that go with being a drummer?
 
等等，你說(shuō)鼓手總會(huì)得到負(fù)面的評(píng)價(jià)？
 
B: Well sometimes when people hear "oh they're a musician" you know, "oh you better watch out for them". Yeah, it's true.
 
有時(shí)你會(huì)聽(tīng)到人們說(shuō)“哦，他們是玩音樂(lè)的”，你知道，意思是“哦，你最好小心點(diǎn)他們。”現(xiàn)實(shí)就是這樣。
 
A: OK. Well, what kind of drums do you play?
 
好，你打的是哪種鼓？
 
B: I grew up playing in punk bands, mostly because those were the only bands scouting for drummers at the time. However, what I enjoy playing is funk, jazz, blues and salsa, specifically Cuban salsa.
 
我青年時(shí)代是在朋克樂(lè)隊(duì)里演奏鼓的，大部分原因是朋友樂(lè)隊(duì)是當(dāng)時(shí)唯一需要鼓手的樂(lè)隊(duì)。不過(guò)，我喜歡演奏放克音樂(lè)、爵士樂(lè)、藍(lán)調(diào)樂(lè)和薩爾薩樂(lè)，尤其喜歡古巴薩爾薩樂(lè)。
 
A: OK. Now, so for the different types of music that you play, do you always use the drum sticks, or do you sometimes just use your hands?
 
好，這么多不同種類的音樂(lè)類型，你在演奏時(shí)是用鼓槌，還是有時(shí)就用手來(lái)演奏鼓？
 
B: When I play on a drum set, I either use drum sticks or a bundle of sticks that are really small called hot rods, or brushes. Usually if I'm doing a jazz piece or a very soft acoustic set, I'll use brushes. If I'm using other percussion instruments, for example a jimbei, then of course I use my hands.
 
我在打架子鼓時(shí)，我會(huì)用鼓槌或是一種小的束棒。如果我要演奏爵士樂(lè)或非常柔和的不插電音樂(lè)，那我就會(huì)用束棒。如果我要演奏jimbei這樣的其他打擊樂(lè)器，那我當(dāng)然就會(huì)用我的手了。
 
A: What's a jimbei?
 
jimbei是什么？
 
B: Jimbei is a large drum that comes from West Africa. And you play with your hands using various African poly-rhythms. And lately, a lot of Western drummers have picked up the drum, and have fused Western rhythms along with African and Latin poly-rhythms. So it's a very fun, but very difficult instrument to play.
 
是一種來(lái)自于西非的大鼓。你要用手來(lái)打鼓，而且會(huì)使用到不同的非洲復(fù)合節(jié)奏。最近有很多西方鼓手開(kāi)始演奏這種鼓，他們將西方節(jié)奏和非洲及拉丁的復(fù)合節(jié)奏結(jié)合起來(lái)。所以演奏這種樂(lè)器很有趣，不過(guò)也很難。
 
A: What do you prefer, using the sticks, or the hot rods or using your hands.
 
你更喜歡哪種，是用鼓槌，還是用你的手？
 
B: Again it depends on the music that I'm playing. I enjoy playing in general. My preference would be playing the drum set with the sticks, just because I really love the more rocky-fusion-type-jazz, the more avant guard type stuff. And I also like salsa, which usually, you know you have your clave, which is a little wooden-like block. And your cowbell, and you also have timbales, which are two drums that you hit on. Sorry for the bad description.
 
我要再說(shuō)一次，這取決于我演奏的音樂(lè)類型。我喜歡打鼓。我喜歡用鼓槌打架子鼓，因?yàn)槲腋矚g搖滾樂(lè)與爵士樂(lè)混合而成的音樂(lè)，那種更先鋒的音樂(lè)。同樣我也喜歡薩爾薩，你知道要用響棒，這是一種木制的打擊樂(lè)器。還有牛鈴，還有兩個(gè)鼓連在一起的天巴鼓。抱歉我形容的不好。
 
A: That's OK. When you're playing the drums, do you ever lose a drum stick?
 
不會(huì)。你打鼓的時(shí)候曾經(jīng)有把鼓槌弄丟過(guò)嗎？
 
B: I have in the past, yeah. Those question you're asking are very very embarrassing for a drummer to nswer. But yes, sometimes I've thrown them into the audience, usually on purpose. But occasionally, a drummer will lose a drum stick. So you usually have a pouch that you'll put either next to your hi-hat, which are two symbols that you open and close with your foot, or next to a fore tom which is the large drum that sits on the ground. So you have extra sticks that you can grab when you need them.
 
以前有過(guò)。實(shí)際上你這些問(wèn)題對(duì)鼓手來(lái)說(shuō)非常非常尷尬。有時(shí)我會(huì)把鼓槌扔給觀眾，通常是有意為之。不過(guò)有時(shí)候鼓手也會(huì)不小心弄丟鼓槌。所以你要準(zhǔn)備個(gè)小袋子，放在踩镲架旁邊，你在開(kāi)始和結(jié)束時(shí)會(huì)用腳踩镲發(fā)出信號(hào)，或者放在立在地上的大鼓旁邊。這樣你在需要的時(shí)候就可以拿到備用的鼓槌了。
 
A: Sounds cool.
 
聽(tīng)起來(lái)真酷。
 
B: Very cool.
 
非?？?。
