当旋律汇入和声的海洋——写在香缇克利尔合唱团上海音乐会后

When melody flows into the ocean of harmony:Chanticleer in Shanghai

5月2日和3日，上海音乐厅迎来了享誉世界的无伴奏男声合唱团香缇克利尔（Chanticleer），笔者有幸亲临了两场音乐会。在第一天与著名的旅美华人音乐团体上海四重奏合作的音乐会上，他们将当前极受欢迎的旅美作曲家陈怡的新作《美之历程》首次搬上了国内的舞台，而第二天的专场演出更是让听众听得如痴如醉，现场气氛热烈无比，

On May 2 and 3 Chanticleer made their debut in Shanghai,at the Shanghai Concert Hall.Chanticleer is an American full-time professional classical vocal ensemble similar to Britain's The King's Singers.For three decades, Chanticleer has developed a great reputation for its interpretation of classical repertoire,but also performs a wide repertoire of jazz, gospel,and other venturesome new music.Critics and fans praise this group as an'Orchestra of Voices.'Chanticleer members were enthused after their Shanghai experience. Members wrote the following in their blog:'You couldn't wish for a warmer and more vociferous response.'
