One man's trash is another's treasure! Thanks to Amazon, I managed to sell (I mean get rid of..) this un-historically informed recording of Monteverdi. Leppard's role in bringing public awareness to early music is entirely commendable, but this is truly a dated way to perform this music which I can no longer derive any pleasure in listening to.
「甲之蜜糖,乙之砒霜」!多年前還沒鑽研古樂前,純粹因好奇而買了這套Monteverdi(蒙台威爾第),(而且還是在台灣買的唷,附有側標),不過買回後根本沒聽幾次,也沒全部聽完過。等到認真接觸古樂後,Leppard的錄音無論在樂器或演奏方式上(器樂與人聲)都早已過時,幾乎聽不下去(當時得到企鵝三星帶花,是整體大環境對古樂演奏的無知,尚可理解。今天若是照那樣演奏,能得到一顆星就該偷笑了),於是一直擺在架子上積灰座。
說來也妙,最近將這套放在「阿嬤爽」(Amazon)上,前幾天居然賣出去了~~感謝Amazon的存在,想脫手已久的東西,終於找到有願意收購的買家。可喜可賀!
Leppard是今天古樂運動的重要前身,推廣巴洛克樂功勞極大,但聽這un-historically informed演奏方式,我實在已得不到任何樂趣了…寄出前,嘗試再挑一兩張出來努力聽聽,但十分鐘已是極限。唯一可取之處,應該是Leppard的數字低音彈得還不錯~~
