【美洲·厄瓜多尔】哥伦比亚南太平洋地区和厄瓜多尔埃斯米拉达省的木琴音乐、传统歌曲和舞蹈 Marimba music, traditional chants and dances from the Colombia South Pacific region and Esmeraldas Province of Ecuador（2015年）

在哥伦比亚南太平洋地区和厄瓜多尔埃斯梅拉达斯省，马林巴音乐和传统的圣歌和舞蹈是非洲人后裔家庭和社区结构中不可或缺的音乐表现形式。吟诵的故事和诗歌由男性和女性在仪式、宗教和节日活动中表演，作为对生命的庆祝、对圣人的崇拜或对死者的告别，并伴随着身体的节奏运动。马林巴音乐在棕榈木木琴上演奏，带有竹管谐振器，并伴有鼓和马拉卡斯。这种元素植根于家庭和日常活动中，社区作为一个整体被视为承载者和实践者，无论年龄或性别。老年人在传播口头传统的传说和故事方面起着至关重要的作用，而音乐教师则监督着音乐知识向新一代的传播。马林巴音乐和传统的圣歌和舞蹈促进了包括食物和饮料在内的象征性交流。这些表达方式中的每一种都通过祖传习俗促进了家庭和集体融合，从而增强了对与共同领土和历史相关的特定群体的归属感。

Marimba music and traditional chants and dances are musical expressions integral to the family and community fabric of people of African descent in the Colombian South Pacific region and Esmeraldas Province of Ecuador. Chanted stories and poems are performed by men and women at ritual, religious and festive events as a celebration of life, a form of worship to saints or as a farewell to the deceased, and are accompanied by rhythmic movements of the body. The marimba music is played on a palm wood xylophone with bamboo tube resonators, accompanied by drums and maracas. The element is rooted in family and daily activities and the community as a whole is considered the bearer and practitioner, irrespective of age or gender. Elderly people play a crucial role in transmitting legends and stories from oral tradition, while music teachers oversee the transmission of musical knowledge to new generations. Marimba music and traditional chants and dances promote symbolic exchanges that include food and drink. Each of these expressions facilitates family and collective integration through ancestral practices that heighten the sense of belonging to a particular group connected to a shared territory and history.
