The Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir | zh

Something of a family project, the Boys Air Choir is built around the vocal talents of brothers Connor, Edward and Patrick Burrowes, augmented by young singers recruited from various British school and church choirs. The group was founded in 1996 following Connor's stellar career as a treble soloist with the St. Paul's Cathedral Choir in London. They went on to produce half a dozen beautiful albums, beginning with "Requiem" in 1997. Whether the ensemble will survive the changing of all the young Burrowes voices seems doubtful -- but in any case, they have left a body of recorded work that...

“离上帝最近的声音”--维也纳童声合唱团 西洋音乐史上几乎所有重要的音乐家都创作过宗教体裁的音乐，教堂音乐呈现出庄严、肃穆、醇和的美，让人在悠扬而圣洁的旋律中获得心灵的平静和升华，即使表达的是尘世的情感和生活，但因为采用宗教的形式也具有了宗教的美，这类音乐统称为“圣乐”。真正崇高的音乐能使人感受到上天照看人类力量，那股力量让人感到温暖、不再无助，圣乐更是如此。 人类音乐史上最优美、最经典的维也纳童声合唱团，歌声宛如天籁之音，赢得乐谜一致击赏。在睽违广州乐迷四年之后，维也纳童声合唱团（海顿团）将于10月 21日（星期日）再度踏上星海音乐厅舞台，除带来世界各地民歌民谣外，更带来多首宗教圣乐和圣诞歌曲，其中包括世界上最著名的宗教音乐经典，莫扎特、福莱、伯恩斯坦等这些天才级音乐家的圣乐膜拜之作，纯净的嗓音表达了对上帝的崇敬，其音色美妙，仙乐飘飘，如天使降临，传递出最纯净的心灵力量。 浑浊的天空之下，我们渴望圣洁如许的音乐，一如渴望一滴高山圣水，为我们的心灵洗礼。维也纳童声合唱团的精彩演出，更赋予了这些名曲天国般绚丽动人的华彩，让这抚慰灵魂的圣咏超越了它们本来宗教上的意义，上升为艺术的美与心灵的颤动。在这里我们听到了心灵的虔诚，纯净的孤独和怅惘，听到了天堂的真善美、明明灭灭的光亮和欢乐…… 感人至深的古典音乐能净化灵魂，赋予人沉思冥想的空间。而安魂曲、圣诗、圣母颂、圣母悼歌等等这些来自圣母院的歌声，是最温暖的古典疗伤音乐。它就像风浪中的一盏灯塔，带领我们回到宁静的归处。除此之外，美国现代作曲家奥尔夫扬名立万的经典之作、二十世纪最受欢迎的合唱音乐《布兰诗歌》--“噢，命运！”，也将出现在本次音乐会中，强烈鲜明的节奏与充满力度的旋律，曾经被流行音乐天王麦克.杰克逊(MICHAEL JACKSON)引用做为全球巡回演唱会开场的序曲。 清澈的童声、可爱的面庞、纯净圣洁的绝美音色、经典浪漫的流行旋律，有着“天籁美音”盛誉的维也纳童声合唱团，鼎鼎名声是历五百年历史锻炼而成。悠久的历史、水晶般的清澈童声里总是散发出一种纯净脱俗的特质，使维也纳童声合唱团与爱乐乐团被视为奥地利的两大国宝。在奥地利，人们最向往的是“儿童时代要成为维也纳童声合唱团的一名团员；青年时要成为骑术学校的一名骑手；就业时则要成为一名政府官员。”在这三个向往中，尤其以第一个向往为人们感到最荣耀。 衣香鬓影的交际舞会，施特劳斯的圆舞曲以及技巧超卓的童声合唱团，早已成为维也纳音乐之都的象征。具有五百年历史的维也纳童声合唱团是世界上最著名的音乐团体之一，被世人称为“歌唱着的天使”，曾造就音乐史上的奇葩---莫扎特、海顿、舒伯特及近代大指挥家汉斯李希特、克莱门特克劳斯等。由于其蕴藏深厚的文化底蕴和悠久的历史，使得诸多国家元首、商业巨子、社会名流如克林顿、戴安娜、肯尼迪、迪斯尼等都成为其忠实听众。 维也纳童声合唱团与维也纳爱乐乐团并称为奥地利的两个国宝。当今许多著名的指挥家都和维也纳童声合唱团合作过，卡拉扬、伯恩斯坦、索尔弟、阿巴多等都曾指挥过该团并给予过高度的艺术评价。每到星期日或宗教节日，维也纳童声合唱团都会出现在霍夫堡皇宫内的城堡小教堂唱诗，前来一饱耳福的人络绎不绝。如今他们的足迹遍布全球，除了每年到欧洲各国演出外，30年来还不断在日本演出，到我国台湾省演出也有20次之多。 维也纳童声合唱团共有莫扎特团、施特劳斯团、巴赫、海顿团等四个分团，每年由各个分团轮流在全世界巡演……维也纳童声合唱团的节目精致、丰富和多彩。既有奥地利及欧陆传统作品，也有现代世界名家名曲；既有和美宁谧的教堂乐曲、浓馥动人的奥地利民谣、轻柔美妙的圆舞曲，还有令人捧腹的喜歌剧，优美的钢琴伴奏更为她添上动人的色彩。维也纳童声合唱团尤以演唱莫扎特及舒伯特的乐曲最为出色 。 童声合唱音色清澈纯净、空灵柔和，而在变声期以前的男童合唱更能将这些特点发挥到极致。维也纳合唱团由清一色的男孩组成，由于生理原因的限制，合唱团正式团员的年龄严格控制在10到14岁之间。为了保持嗓音的丰满，他们采取正统美声发声方法来拓宽他们的音域，增强了嗓音的耐力，使声音更加柔和，声部之间也更加和谐。这样一来，他们便会发出一种近似女声，却又比女声更加纯净圣洁的音色，这是一种成年人绝对不可能发出的美妙音色。这些身穿着海军服的小天使，天使般的歌声，风靡全球，其可爱的足迹踏遍了世界各大城市。 .
