默里·谢弗

雷蒙德·默里·谢弗(,),是一名加拿大作曲家、作家、音乐教育家和环境论者。他最广为人知的行动是“世界音景计划”(World Soundscape Project),最著名的出版物是《世界的调音》(The Tuning of the World),又名《音景》(The Soundscape)。他是第一位朱尔斯-圣莱杰奖(Jules Léger Prize)的受领人,也曾获得加拿大勋章(Order of Canada)。

学术
谢弗出生于加拿大安大略省的萨尼亚市。他曾于英国皇家音乐学院、多伦多皇家音乐学院、多伦多大学学习。在多伦多大学期间,他曾是理查德·约翰斯顿的弟子。

他的音乐教育理论在全世界都受到推广。在1960年代他在西门菲莎大学开始了音景理论的研究。

为了解释音景的概念,谢弗在1969年提出了“声音分裂”()这一词,意味“声音从它的来源和环境分离”,他解释道:“我们总是将声音从它的制造者身上分离出来。原本存在于自然宿主中的声音被扯离,被赋予响度的放大然后变成独立的存在。举例来说,人唱歌或说话的声音已经不全是直接从嘴里发出的了,它可能来自世界上的任何一个角落。”

谢弗也是图像记谱法的实践者之一。

荣誉
1987年,谢弗被授予了第一届格连-古尔德奖(Glenn Gould Prize)作为对他的贡献的肯定。谢弗还两次荣获朱诺奖的年度最佳古典乐作曲,在2004年和2011年,获奖作品分别是《String Quartet No.8》和《Duo for Violin and Piano》。

2005年,加拿大艺术协会授予谢弗沃尔特-卡森奖,这是加拿大艺术家最高荣誉之一。 2009年,谢弗还荣获加拿大表演艺术界最高荣誉之加拿大总督表演艺术奖。 2013年,基于他在“当代音乐领域的国际声誉和在声音生态学领域的开创性贡献”,他被授予双重荣誉的加拿大勋章。
