ENRICO CARUSO (1873-1921) 大部份人包括Pavarotti, 称他为最伟大的男高音。因他的录音年代久远,失真严重。这个 remastered 版本除了pianissimo 部分,还是能给一个完整的印象,特别是他的力度及穿透力,音域广度和华彩。 1 .《偷洒一滴泪》(录制于1904!)Una Furtiva Lagrima 是Donizetti 著名歌剧《爱的甘醇》中的咏叹调。 lyrics in English: One tear that falls so furtively from her sweet eyes has just sprung, as if she envied all the youths who laughingly passed her right by. What could I want more than this? She loves me! I see it. One moment just to hear her heart, beating so close next to mine, to hear my sighs like they were hers, her sighings as if they were mine! Heavens, please take me now: All that I wanted is mine now!
2.《卡鲁索》( 1986 ) 是我很喜欢的一首歌,由意大利名歌手兼作曲家 Lucio Dalla 为这位伟大的男高音所作. 这里有Lara Fabian 和 Josh Groban 两个超激情动人的演出。 Bocelli, Pavarotti 也唱过。 Lara Fabian is out of the world here.
English translation of the lyrics: Here where the sea shines and the wind is strong on an old terrace infront of the Gulf of Sorriento(province of Naples if I'm not mistaken) a man hugs a girl after he has cried Afterwards he clears his voice and begins again to sing I care too much for u(Te voglio bene assaje) but, u know, a great deal at his point it has become a chain(e' una catena ormai) that melts the blood in the * veins u know He saw the lights in the middle of the sea he thought of the nights in America** but they where only the lights from the boats*** and the white trace of a propeller He felt the pain of music got up from the piano But when he saw the moon that was coming out from behind a cloud he thought that even death was sweeter He looked into the eyes of the girl those eyes green like the sea then suddenly a tear came out and he believed he was soffocating I care too much for u(Te voglio bene assaje) but, u know, a great deal at his point it has become a chain(e' una catena ormai) that melts the blood in the veins u know
Force of the lirica where**** every drama is a false(ogni drama e' un falso) which with a little bit of make-up(che con un po' di trucco) and with the art of mimic u can become someone else but 2 eyes that are watching u(ma due occhi che di guardano) so close and different(eyes of different people)(cosi' vicini e vari) they make you forget the words(ti fan scordare le parole) i get mixed up so everything becomes small even the nights there in America u turn and see your own life(ti volti e vedi la tua vita) like the trace of a propeller but its the life that ends But he didn't think that much the opposite he was feeling already happy and started again to sing I care too much for u(Te voglio bene assaje) but, u know, a great deal at his point it has become a chain(e' una catena ormai) that melts the blood in the veins u know |
