Andrew Lloyd Webber
的《劇院幽靈》是當今世界4大經典歌劇之一,1986年在倫敦首演就奠定了撼世之作的地位,兩年後在美國百老匯又再次大獲成功,此後近20年該劇在世界各地巡回演出並受到熱烈追捧,有時即使出價1000美金仍然一票難求,雖然很多演員先後主演該劇,但是男演員Michael
Crawford和女演員Sarah
Brightman無疑是頂級的最佳人選。雖然Sarah
Brightman和Andrew
Lloyd Webber的離婚一度使該劇進一步推廣受挫,但是全球億萬歌劇迷們的呼聲最終再次啟動了該劇新的征程。
該劇講述了一個毀容的音樂天才兒時備受社會侮辱並最終逃入了地下墓穴。歌劇院幽靈巴特勒在巴黎歌劇院的地下墓穴裏神出鬼沒,還經常出來鬧一鬧鬼。當他愛上了可愛的年輕女演員姬絲汀之後,歌劇院幽靈
決定不遺餘力的把姬絲汀打造成為一位耀眼的明星。但是一位年輕的子爵華魯在看過姬絲汀的表演之後也一見傾心,姬絲汀對華魯也很有好感,兩個人相愛了,更偷偷的訂了婚。而後來知道真相的
歌劇院幽靈
怒不可遏,他強烈的控製欲,對姬絲汀強烈的愛讓他認為自己受了欺騙。於是在這一對戀人和一個歌劇院幽靈之間,複雜的關係和強烈的感情徹底的改變了他們三個的命運……
《music
of the night》是該劇中的華彩篇章,男主角蒼涼的音色卻掩蓋不了
心靈的狂野,
完全是一個多才多藝幽靈的情感宣言。鹹亨費盡心機隻能在網上找到這個mp3的鏈接,雖然不是Michael
Crawford的原唱,但是也已經非常出色了,個人推薦大家欣賞近期同名電影的原聲CD。
附:music
of the night 歌詞
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and peaks imagination
Silently the senses, abandon their defenses
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
turn your face away from the garish light of day, turn your thoughts away
from cold, unfeeling light
and listen to the music of the night
close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams, purge your thoughts
of the life you knew before, close your eyes let you spirit start to
soar...and you'll live as you've never lived before
Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness that you know, you cannot fight..
The darkness of the music of the night
Let your mind start a journey to a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before..
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then... can you belong to me
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write..
The power of the music of the night
You alone can make my song take flight..
Help me make the music of the night
周末愉快
