Ennio Morricone and Dulce Pontes - Focus
|
義大利音樂家顏尼歐莫利克奈享譽歐、美影壇四十多年,他總計贏得五座英國影藝學院獎、二座金球獎、一座葛萊美獎以及威尼斯影展所頒發的終身成就獎,膾炙人口的作品包括了《新天堂樂園》、《教會》、《四海兄弟》、《荒野大鏢客》、《海上鋼琴師》等。他的電影音樂散發著跨界的魔力,包括瓊拜亞、莎拉布萊曼、喬許、美聲男伶(Il Divo)都曾詮釋過他的作品。
葡萄牙歌后Dulce Pontes,來自里斯本,她在一九九三年的專輯 Lagrimas 中,她將葡萄牙傳統的fado歌謠與非洲、阿拉伯、巴巴里等地的傳統音樂作融合。一九九六年,隨著她所詮釋的名曲"Cancao do Mar 海洋之歌"被選為電影《驚悚》的主題曲,Pontes的歌聲也逐漸受到國際樂壇的矚目,她曾與波伽利、卡列拉斯、費洛索、The Chieftains、卡芭葉等國際巨星合作。
一九九五年,Pontes應邀為莫利克奈所譜寫的電影 Afirma Pereira 主題曲“Brisa do Coracao心之微風"擔任主唱,在這次合作後,大師允諾會在Pontes 卅歲的時候與她合作一張專輯,二○○三年春季,這個允諾實現,兩人展開專輯《天作之合》的錄製,Pontes錄唱了"Cinema Paradiso"、"A Rose Among Throns"、"Your Love"這些分別來自於《新天堂樂園》、《教會》、《狂沙十萬里》等電影主題旋律的歌曲,莫利克奈不但親自為每首歌曲重新編曲,編寫全新的管弦樂曲,還特地譜寫了五首新作,其中包括了與Pontes所合寫的“Nosso Mar我們的海洋"、“Voo翱翔"。Pontes分別用了葡萄牙文、義大利文、西班牙文、英文來詮釋莫利克奈的作品,而她那高亢、柔雅,情緒起伏多變的嗓音之中,更讓大師充滿寫意色彩的旋律瞬間激盪出一份對生命的熱情,同時也為’人聲永遠是最佳的樂器’這句話做了完美的詮釋。
