怎么能不听歌剧?

How could you not enjoy operas?

用“怎么能不听歌剧”作为文本的标题，似乎有些“极端”和“武断”，且容我慢慢道来。起因是近年来，笔者在与一些乐迷朋友交往时发现，有的乐迷，甚至是相当资深的乐迷，赏乐数十年，但聆听的范围基本上只围绕着器乐作品，

OUTLINE/Opera is an amalgam of many artforms,it is the jewel in the crown of classical music.Yet quite a lot of music lovers focus their attention to instrumental music rather than vocal genres.There is a qualitative difference between the human voice and instruments,there's also a marked difference between the musicality of opera that far exceeds the'content'a libretto carries.To appreciate opera,one should concentrate on the music-librettos lacking in dramatic coherence,or imperfect acting might mar a performance.
