Alee tété Duludjan, Alee tété DurruDuuuu…
Did the sun knock my head ? hum maybe. Fortunately swimming pools are open.
July and August are the big holidays period in France : quiet and nearly empty streets (except eternal tourists in Paris), half of the people on holidays. LES GRANDES VACANCES so adored by all children. So except Lebanon’s event’s consequences for some Armenians families or individuals, no big news of the French Armenians. Like the rest of the country, activities will come back in September, the veramood.
I have to fight against eternal Mrs. Lazy and Miss Apathy, joined now with the dzanrutiun of the weather… :o(( but I can at least mention something I forgot the last time I talk about Guédiguian’s last movie “The journey in Armenia” : the music of the film is amongst the numerous successful aspects of it
It was composed and performed specially for the movie by Arto Tunçboyaciyan. YES ! The one of the Armenian Navy Band. What a nice mix it does, is really something to see and hear !
Guédiguian’s instructions were rather original (I think) : not to follow the movie, but to let a certain distance between the music and the story. The common point was of course in the “subject”. Like the movie, the music had to show the roots discovered or rediscovered in their present configuration, that is to say that it had to do permanently a link between authentic ancient sounds, and today’s contemporary world. The goal is to make all this sound strange, as it can sound strange to someone who's discovering... like Anna's character :o)
Ecco ! This is the explanation of the “Alee tété Duludjan, Alee tété DurruDuuuu…” some of the strange lyrics (at least for me) that get stuck in my mind after the last time I went to see the movie, doesn't it sound already nice ? :o)
