Although the most popular contemporary jazz tends to fall into the "lite" category, trumpeter Chris Botti avoids painting himself into this corner by sticking with an approach more reminiscent of Chet Baker. For his 2004 album, WHEN I FALL IN LOVE, Botti takes it a step further by employing the London Session Orchestra to provide him with lush accompaniment on a program predominantly made up of standards. The Oregon native adds further layers to the album's sound by calling on singer Paula Cole, whose burnished vocals provide a fine foil on a brush-stroked version of Irving Berlin's "What'll I Do?" and "How Love Should Be," with its subtle mix of piano and strings. Along with exquisite takes on Rodgers & Hart ("My Romance") and the Gershwins ("Someone to Watch Over Me"), Botti also shows a knack for the cinematic nuance of Ennio Morricone ("Cinema Paradiso") and the pop-jazz of Sade ("No Ordinary Love"). The handsome horn player even ropes old employer Sting and bandmates Dominic Miller and Vinnie Colaiuta into lending their talents on the samba-flavored "La Belle Dame Sans Regrets" (composed by Sting and Miller). With its dusky mood, WHEN I FALL IN LOVE serves as the perfect soundtrack for a late-night cocktail party or a romantic evening by the fireplace. |
老鄉喜歡這裏什麽動西就盡管搬好了，不用客氣。
我聽的是Monica Mancini版的，以下是查到的歌詞：
Cinema Paradiso
Artist: Monica Mancini
(http://space.wenxuecity.com/media/1268514863.mp3)
If one day you could see through my eyes the beauty,
and happy neures I see in you
When I see your eyes
The life I dream of can come true
Or is it just a dream
Are you need
If one day you could see with my heart's yearning
Then you would know just how I feel
When I feel your heart
And when I drink you in my arms
And breeze you with my soul
We are one
Remember
If one day you could see with my soul the future
Time would stand still and disappear
This is all I as
Just like a film that faith from you
My paradise was you
So I dream
Remember
同感，弦樂版更能表達強烈的情緒，小號版更適合獨自沉思和懷舊的時刻~~~。。。
不記得電影裏有歌曲，歌好像是後來用那個主題音樂填的詞，我做過一個歌貼，裏麵收了Josh Groban的Cinema Paradiso歌唱版，意大利語歌詞，譯文跟你引用的不太一樣嗬--這是我查到的歌詞：
If you were in my eyes for one day
You could see the full beauty of the joy
I find in your eyes
And it isn’t magic or loyalty
If you were in my heart for a day
You would have an idea
Of what I feel
When you hold me strongly to you
Heart to heart,
Breathing together
Protagonist of your love
I don’t know if it’s magic or loyalty
If you were in my soul for a day
You would know what is inside me
That I fell in love
At that instant, together with you
And what I sense
It’s only love.
Anyways, 有點跑題~~~嗬嗬! 看到"drink"和"breeze"這2個詞第一感覺是意想不到，細想又挺特別，傳神：））這跟中文古詩詞有點像了，值得推敲哈~~~好詞。
周末愉快！
老鄉姐姐喜歡我就開心了。
微風老鄉很富有想象力。
小號和弦樂各有所長。小號或許從整體上跟更適合這部電影的情節。但要表現一些強烈的情緒，則個人認為弦樂還是更盛一籌。
覺得Cinema Paradiso的歌詞寫得很美，不知道是改寫還是翻譯的？ 其中兩個英文單詞 drink and breeze 用的很不一般。
When I feel your heart
And when I drink you in my arms
And breeze you with my soul
We are one
或許本人讀書不多，少見多怪了。
多謝老鄉來訪，祝周末開心快樂！
小號別有風味，浪漫灑脫又帶些懷舊情調，聽來感覺像看黑白老電影，雨中的街道，昏暗的咖啡廳，旋轉的老式留聲機~~~
小號版的Cinema Paradiso比弦樂版風格不同，個人感覺更適合電影情節：））
