}} ''Opéra sauvage'' is a 1979 album by Greek composer and artist Vangelis, of the score for the nature documentary by the same title by French filmmaker Frédéric Rossif. The album sleeve design is by Vangelis himself. Vangelis produced this album during his electro-acoustic period, which was one of the most productive in his musical career. ''Opéra Sauvage'' is more akin to his classic sound than his earlier nature scores for the same director, such as ''L'Apocalypse des animaux'' and ''La Fête sauvage''. A later collaboration with Rossif in the style of ''Opéra sauvage'' was ''Sauvage et Beau''. The album became #42 in the Billboard top 200, and stayed in the charts for 39 weeks. ==Track listing== "Hymne", "L'Enfant", "Mouettes" and "Irlande" build on fairly simple themes that are developed instrumentally. "Rêve" is, indeed, as the title suggests, a dreamy calm piece. "Chromatique" has a chromatic instrumental line with chords on an acoustic guitar. "Flamants roses", finally, consists of several parts, from slow to upbeat, and finishing off with a bluesy finale; Jon Anderson features prominently on harp. Vangelis plays several synthesizers, piano, electric piano (featured extensively on "Rêve"), drums, percussion, xylophone, and acoustic guitar ("Chromatique"). Jon Anderson is credited with playing harp on "Flamants roses". The music was recorded at Vangelis' Nemo Studios in London, U.K, in 1978 and 1979, with engineering by Keith Spencer-Allen, assisted by Marlis Duncklau and Raphael Preston. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Opéra sauvage」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
