没有想到要听兰扎的唱片，刚开始拿了贝四听，不在状态，又换了勃拉姆斯第四，勃拉姆斯第一钢协，才开始飘进去。本来想接着听第二钢协，却碰巧找到这张兰扎（伟大的卡鲁索）。结果就是…一遍一遍放这张唱片，眼睛湿了又湿…
很奇怪，自从四年前benny送给我那次起，这张唱片只是那天听过一次。也是这样一个雨天，这样的气氛。记得那天回到家，迫不及待放进唱片，缩进沙发里，阳光，热情，随着第一个音符响起，金色滤过了一切…
今天，重新发现兰扎。
一直固执偏执的认为，对于一个歌唱家，最美的事情莫过于，随着最后一声高音，晕眩在舞台上，气绝而声息。
“这个专辑既显示出兰扎的力量，也反映了他的弱点，他的演唱通常灌注了巨大的热情，所造成的感情强度完全超出了音乐表达的需要。” 在我看来，这恰恰是他的可贵之处。杜鹃啼血，用歌声燃尽生命。正是Mario Lanza。不是吗，听听吧，他在用生命歌唱：

E lucevan le stelle and Someday
E lucevan le stelle is the final romanza in the opera Tosca composed by Giacomo Puccini to an Italian libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa. It is sung by Tosca's lover, the painter Mario Cavaradossi (tenor), when lamenting his coming execution.

E lucevan le stelle,
ed olezzava la terra
stridea l'uscio dell'orto
e un passo sfiorava la rena.
Entrava ella fragrante,
mi cadea fra la braccia.
O dolci baci, o languide carezze,
mentr'io fremente le belle forme disciogliea dai veli!
Svanì per sempre il sogno mio d'amore.
L'ora è fuggita, e muoio disperato!
E non ho amato mai tanto la vita!
|
And the stars were shining,
and the earth smelled sweet,
the garden gate scraped,
and a step brushed the sand.
She came in, fragrant,
and fell into my arms.
Oh! sweet kisses, oh! languid caresses,
while I, trembling, released her lovely features from their veils!
My dream of love has vanished forever.
The moment is gone, and I die in despair!
And I never have loved life so much!

Some day you will seek me and find me
Some day of the days that shall be
Surely you will come and remind me
Of a dream that is calling for you and for me
Some day when the winter is over
Some day in the flush of the spring
My soul shall discover the soul born for her lover
The man with the heart of a king
(Orchestral Break)
Surely you will come and remind me
Of a dream that is calling for you and for me
Some day when the winter is over
Some day in the flush of the spring
My soul shall discover the soul born for her lover
The man with the heart of a king
