Loreena McKennitt ──The mummer's dance《The mummer's dance》When in the springtime of the year When the trees are crowned with leaves When the ash and oak, and the birch and yew Are dressed in ribbons fair When owls call the breathless moon In the blue veil of the night The shadows of the trees appear Amidst the lantern 訂做禮服light We've been rambling all the night And some time of this day Now returning back again We bring a garland gay Who will go down to those shady groves And summon the shadows there And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms In the springtime of the year The songs of birds seem to fill the wood That when the fiddler plays All their 濾桶voices can be heard Long past their woodland days We've been rambling all the night And some time of this day Now returning back again We bring a garland gay And so they linked their hands and danced Round in circles and in rows And so the journey of the night descends When all the shades are gone A garland gay we bring you here 節能燈具And at your door we stand It is a sprout well budded out The work of Our Lord's hand" We've been rambling all the night And some time of this day Now returning back again We bring a garland gay We've been rambling all the night And some time of this day Now returning back again We bring a garland gay引用至:酒店經紀http://tw.youtube.com/watch?v=0B7sH5QLyXY***************************************************** ************************************************************************ *******Loreena McKennitt簡介:1957年加拿大出生,現年 51歲,有著歌手和詞曲家的身份,精通豎琴、鋼琴,拔擢出塵的歌聲,引領聽者進入森林深處的古老傳說、優美的詩篇以及縹緲酒店工作的冥思,是讓人一再回味無窮的清新派女神!來自加拿大的Loreena McKennitt可說是擁有世上最迷人嗓音的女性歌手之一,她那拔擢出塵的歌聲在高亢清亮中又時而帶有娓娓款情,神清氣爽地將居爾特民謠、匿於森林深處的古老傳說、優美的詩篇以及縹緲的冥思,一點一滴地吟詠撒揚而出。Loreena另一為人所稱道的是她的豎琴演奏,這項被視做聖潔化身的樂器在 Loreena纖指撥酒店打工弄下,更形襯出她清靈歌聲的優雅美感。“Elemental”是Loreena驚豔歌壇的第一張專輯,也是她這之後徜徉歌壇十五年至今,民謠氣息最為濃厚的一張專輯。讓人驚訝的是, Loreena在當時(1985年)彈撥出流洩整張專輯間的悠揚豎琴聲之前,只有短短兩年的豎琴學習經驗。整張專輯以居爾特民謠為主,Loreena柔中帶亮的歌喉完美詮釋出每一個音符,反映出她多年的聲樂訓練紮酒店兼職實根基,以及因從小成長於鄉間而感受到的大自然情懷。「She Moved Through The Fair」是相當著名的愛爾蘭民謠,許多藝人都曾詮釋過此曲,包括外表叛逆不羈的愛爾蘭知名歌手Sinead O'Connor(辛妮歐康諾)。Loreena的演繹在原本歌曲的純純情愫中,加入了堅定的口吻。「Stolen Child」是愛爾蘭詩人W.B. Yeats(葉慈)筆下最著名、最讓人為之感動的詩作之一。燒烤Loreena緩緩吟唱這首詩,引領聽者一步步進入葉慈所描繪出的傷感情境,令人聞之泫然欲泣。與Cedric Smith合唱的「Carrighfer」是為加拿大電影“BAYO”所改編的居爾特民謠,兩人以歌聲穿梭在弦樂間對話,營造出乾淨又甜美的氣氛。專輯在另一位偉大詩人William Blake(威廉布萊克)的代表詩作「Lullaby」中走向靜謐;由Douglas Campbell擔任唸白的這首作品,在慷慨激烤肉食材昂的文字情緒拋灑而出的同時,還伴隨著雷嘯雨吟;而這一切在Loreena抒柔的歌聲間,逐漸獲得撫慰。“Elemental”專輯是引領聽者進入Loreena美聲圖象的入門,在專輯中處處引發純潔遐想的音樂裡,久違的感動俯拾皆是。 引用至:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p8C8AVWLhwI
