Unit 1 Music

1.美国音乐史

美国在诸多领域中都占主导地位，但最为世人所接受的是其音乐。全世界都喜爱并研究布鲁斯乐，爵士乐，乡村音乐，摇滚乐，节奏布鲁斯乐，说唱乐，街舞等各种美国流行音乐。

20世纪60年代英国音乐大举入侵美国时，几乎所有的乐队和歌手都表示对美国音乐的喜爱极大地影响了他们。甲壳虫乐队，滚石乐队，汤姆*琼斯以及许多其它的英国乐队和歌手都声称美国音乐是他们的灵感之源。但他们所喜爱的音乐源自与美国－－这一真正的文化大熔炉中的音乐。

摇滚乐产生于黑人节奏布鲁斯和西部乡村音乐的融合。这种融合影响范围极广，以至于几位南方国会议员公开表明摇滚乐是通过鼓励种族融合而破坏美国价值观的阴谋。摇滚乐发源于北方城市中心的黑人聚集区，因此从

一开始就被贴上了有反叛精神的，原始的黑人音乐的标签。

节奏布鲁斯乐（现称为R&B）直接源于爵士乐，散拍乐，古老的黑人福音歌曲与灵歌，这些音乐形式的叙事

方式和富有变化的节奏成为现在说唱乐和街舞的基础。正是在节奏布鲁斯乐的基础上，形成了现代美国流行音乐富有变化的节奏。对节奏和叙事的强调是节奏布鲁斯乐流行的一个原因。

现代西部乡村音乐发源于南方农村的民歌及30，40及50年代由牛仔歌手唱红的牛仔音乐。许多反映贫穷矿工，农民和经济大萧条时期冲突的歌曲也对它产生了影响。战后，乡村音乐拥有了更多的听众，开始从乡土音乐发展成今天这种更为复杂和优雅的形式。

20世纪八九十年代，美国音乐再次受到拉丁节奏的影响。迈阿密音乐和墨西哥音乐席卷美国。古巴，波多黎各及墨西哥的艺术家们以各种形式将他们的音乐注入到美国音乐中。说唱乐，乡村乐，摇滚乐，节奏布鲁斯乐都深受拉丁节奏的影响。摇滚乐在收音机，电视及电影上的传播加速了20世纪五六十年代的传媒爆炸。摇滚乐的节奏

成了美国音乐的主流。各种形式的音乐分界线开始模糊。随着各种音乐形式超越文化的界限而相互融合，如今的音乐形式已不再按种族来划分。在文化领域中随处可见音乐与文化交融所产生的影响。

现在，美国音乐仍发挥这它一直都在发挥的作用－－将人们凝聚在一起。在美国音乐中，生活和文化等方面面相互融合，相互渗透，相互辉映。美国文化和生活的多样性在其欢快的节奏中得到体现。美国音乐讲述着这个国家的故事，体现了这个民族富于变化，充满好奇，并满怀希望和激情。随着它的不断发展和变化，美国音乐ji续吸引着全世界的人们，因为它正是美国的精华所在。
