Musique concrète (English spelling) [France]

Japanese: ミュジック・コンクレート(英語表記)musique concrète[フランス]
Musique concrète (English spelling) [France]
In 1948, Schaeffer, who was then an audio engineer at the French National Radio in Paris, began experimenting with this new field of music, which he named in 1949 and is sometimes translated as "concrete music." In other words, musique concrète uses some kind of "concrete sound" recorded on audio tape (initially on a recording disc) as its material, and creates musical works by mechanically and electrically manipulating and processing it. According to Schaeffer, traditional music achieves concrete expression by using abstract sounds (musical tones), but musique concrète tries to achieve abstract expression by using concrete sounds.

Japanese:
1948年,当時パリのフランス国営放送の音響技術者であったシェフェールが実験を開始し,49年に名称をつけた音楽の新しい領域で,〈具体音楽〉と訳されることがある。すなわち,ミュジック・コンクレートは録音テープ(当初は録音盤)に録音したなんらかの〈具体音〉を素材とし,それを機械的・電気的に操作・処理して音楽作品を作るものである。シェフェールによれば,伝統的な音楽は抽象的な音(楽音)を用いて具体的な表現を達成するが,ミュジック・コンクレートは具体音を用いて抽象的表現を達成しようとする。
