What are the characteristics of the musical styles of Yoko Kanno and Yuki Kajiura?

I have read many posts about Kajiura and Guanye on the Internet. Some of them are consistent with my opinions, and some are completely different from mine. Now I will discuss with you the similarities and differences between the two. Here first Quoting a poem from the Tang Dynasty poet Du Mu, "Moss flowers are as small as rice, and I also imitate the blooming of peonies." The article I wrote is not an extremely beautiful "article", and the content of the article may be obviously different from your thoughts, but Please discuss and communicate with me. I am very grateful.

Guan Ye Yoko, this name is really well chosen, "orchestral music with a Western flavor" or "Western music inspired by orchestral music". Perhaps Guan Ye's parents had already foreseen that their daughter would excel in music. Come on, so I gave my daughter such a musical name. Haha, the jokes are over. Let’s get back to the topic. Yoko Kuno’s musical talent is mainly reflected in her ability to perform large-scale symphonies and large-scale orchestral music. In terms of control, I occasionally dabble in music with a more NEWAGE flavor. Unfortunately, I have only listened to two OST albums, MICROSS and WOLF RAIN. However, in MICROSS, Guan Ye brings out the symphonic momentum to the fullest, coupled with Lin Guangmei’s Bel canto-style singing has brought MICROSS's OST to an unprecedented height. This also makes MICROSS's OST one of the most successful legends in the history of Guan Ye music. In WOLF RAIN, Guan Ye also played his part very well. Among the talents on NEWAGE, Gravity, a collaboration with Sakamoto, is really nice and expresses the feeling of intense sadness very well. It can be said that in wind instruments, brass instruments, flutes, and saxophones are indispensable instruments. Everyone knows that brass instruments and saxophones are the kind of majestic string instruments, while the flute is a woodwind with a gentle and soft tone. The musical instruments also reflect the overall style of Guanye music, which reveals a cool flavor of orchestral music under the grand momentum. Finally, I would like to add that the famous NEWAGE musicians in the Japanese music scene are familiar to everyone, Kitaro, Himegami and Joe Hisaishi. They are also called the fathers of NEWAGE in the Japanese music scene, but few people know that Guan Ye is the NEWAGE as famous as them. The mother and the only female musician, it can be said that Guan Ye created the myth of female musicians in the Japanese music scene.

And Kajiura Yuki’s music has also been heavily labeled as Kajiura Yuki. If brass instruments, flutes, and saxophones are the soul of wind music, then in Kajiura’s music , violin, electronic instruments (mainly electronic synthesizers), and percussion instruments are the basis for supplementing musical nutrients. These heavy instruments that she is good at prove that what Kajiura is good at is electronic music with a folk flavor. The first song that opened the ears of Chinese people, Akatsuki, is a very classic folk music, and most of SEE-SAW's songs are electronic music with a clear sense of melody. If [Dream.Field] It is the most successful product of Kajiura's electronic music, and Fiction is her immortal contribution to folk music. But if [Dream.Field] only has Kajiura's dynamic music, it is not enough. Ishikawa's magnetic and emotional voice , which embellishes the artistic conception of Kajiura's electronic music very well, so I would like to recommend this album [Dream.Field] to everyone. This is a famous product of Kajiura's electronic music that you will never regret. Similarly, Fiction also has those bel canto harmonies, so you might as well listen to this product of Kajiura's personal development.

As mentioned above, Kanye is good at symphony and NEWAGE, while Kajiura is good at electronic music and folk music. This also explains why so many people on the Internet are discussing the advantages and disadvantages of Kanye and Kajiura. Symphony is really an elegant art. People need to taste it slowly, chew slowly, and slowly understand the artistic conception of the music under the grand momentum, so that they can enjoy it. Of course, the appreciator also needs to have a Excellent sound, ordinary sound is difficult to perfectly express the momentum and artistic conception of the symphony. Of course, when you are slowly conquered by the momentum in the music, you will slowly appreciate its wonderful artistic conception. , on the contrary to Guanye, it is much easier to appreciate Kajiura's music. You only need to relax and dance with her dynamic or soulful music. This is why there are slightly more Kajiura fans. The important reason for Guanye is that in Kajiura's music, you almost feel no pressure, can forget the disturbing worldly things, and feel deep silence in the heart-wrenching melody. Of course, there are similarities between the two. They both behave so low-key in front of the media and fans, facing their own success quietly, savoring the ups and downs of life alone in a quiet corner. Perhaps in their lives, the only thing that is bold and unrestrained is It's their beautiful music. Such people can often go longer and have the last laugh. This kind of artistic conception cannot be experienced by "pure idols" who only rely on hyping their popularity and have beautiful faces.

But no matter what, both of them have brought a fresh cool breeze to the commercial-heavy Japanese music scene, and they shoulder the important responsibility of connecting the past and the next in the music scene. I wish the two of them good luck together, every year. There are new breakthroughs.

Finally, I hope that your bar will become more successful and more popular, and that every bar fan will be happy every year and happy every day, and that your dreams will come true~~~~ I wish you all a good year. , why should you write this sentence at the end? It’s because I really like expensive bars too much, haha!

This is what I saw in Kajiura Yuki Bar~~Original post/f?kz=158900808
