更具备新世纪音乐的特质。风笛的特点在这里得到了最大程度的展现,每一个听过Hevia的作品的人都无法忘记他那标志性的演奏方式——急促跃动的32分音连绵不绝的蜂拥而出,让人瞬间淹没在好像无休无止的绝妙音符中。而融合了中亚、阿拉伯等异域风情的曲风又使风笛不再局限于爱尔兰的范畴,而开辟了一片更辽阔的发展空间。风笛在他手中已不再只是一件乐器,更是一件魔术师手中的魔法道具,由此变化出令人赞叹、惊讶、耳眩神迷的神奇魅力。 by Alex Henderson
The bagpipes are a primary instrument in traditional Scottish/Celtic music, but
José ángel Hevia
(who simply goes by Hevia on this CD) is one bagpiper who cannot be considered a traditionalist or a purist. Hevia isn't Scottish -- he's from the Asturias region of Spain -- and Tierra de Nadie isn't a traditional Celtic recording. Rather, the risk-taking Hevia combines Scottish/Celtic elements with everything from pop, rock, hip-hop, and new age to Spanish and Middle Eastern music. On the haunting "Busindre Reel" (a major hit in Spain), Hevia even employs the didgeridoo, a wind instrument that is associated with Australian aboriginals. And Hevia doesn't confine the bagpipes to an acoustic environment: On this CD, the instrumentalist often uses an electronic MIDI bagpipe that can be made to sound like a violin, an accordion, and other instruments. Tierra de Nadie won't appeal to Celtic purists, but world music lovers who are open to experimentation will find it to be generally interesting, if a bit uneven.
