People and Places - Hany El Hamzawy | Текст песни

William: Hello and welcome to People and Places… the programme where you meet
interesting people with interesting stories!
My name’s William Kremer. Today, I thought we’d practise some listening
comprehension and to do this, we’re going to hear from a very promising
young musician. His name is Hany Adel Ibrahim El Hamzawy, he’s from
Egypt and…. Well, that’s all I’m going to tell you right now! But as you listen
to Hany talk, try to answer these questions:
What instrument does Hany play?
Where does the first song that Hany plays come from?
And lastly, what is Ethnomusicology?
I’ll be back at the end of the programme with the answers to those questions,
but now let’s listen to Hany talk and play…
Hany: Er, my name is Hany El Hamzawy, I’m from Egypt and I’m doing my masters
degree in Ethnomusicology at Goldsmiths College, University of London. I
play the oud… it’s the ancestor of the European lute and guitar as well.
I want to play one piece from the Indian music – they call it ‘Raga Malconce’.
I used to live in Saudi Arabia for two years and I met one Indian friend and we
er… gave one concert together, playing Arabic style and Indian style as well.
So we play together ‘Raga Malconce’, a part of this raga.
[Plays Raga Malconce]
You know, I was interested in listening to many styles – like Flamenco, like
Jazz, like er, you know, er, Turkish music, like Indian music… I don’t know
which field I have to study… is it piano? So which department I should join?
I’m not playing piano, I’m not playing violin. So, I discover that there is one
field which is Ethnomusicology… this field is mainly concerned about the
different kinds of music and study the music of the whole world, you know? So,
that’s the essence of Ethnomusicology.
I discover that music is not a hobby for, for me, but it’s like the life that
sustains me.
[Plays Al Rouzana]
William: How did you do with those three questions? Let’s quickly go over the answers.
What instrument does Hany play? He plays the oud, which he describes as an
ancestor to the European lute and guitar. Where does the first song that Hany
plays come from? Well, it was an Indian piece of music, although Hany does
go on to say that he learnt it while he was living in Saudi Arabia. Last question:
what is Ethnomusicology? Ethnomusicology is a field of study which is
interested in different kinds of music from around the world.
If you found that difficult, why not listen to this programme again? You can
