Toreador Song (法語曲名 Votre toast, je peux vous le rendre) 是比才歌劇 Carmen (卡門) 第二幕的經典詠嘆調,也是一首專為男中音量身訂做的曠世佳作。這首豪情狂放的詠嘆調,旋律快意優美,是 Carmen 歌劇中的耀眼明珠,也是許多知名男中音口袋必備的曲目。 z6 a' f6 K, g" j1 |- J/ s z: q7 L/ r0 ?( }) j

Dmitri Hvorostovsky 是俄國近十年來舉足輕重的男中音,也是許多女性古典樂迷欣賞的聲樂家,他的聲音品質極佳,演唱風格獨特。依照 Carmen 劇本,劇中演唱此曲的鬥牛士 Escamillo 是由低音男中音 (bass baritone) 擔綱,Dmitri Hvorostovsky 則是男中音(baritone),低音部份的表現就不會太完美。& f1 U9 C4 Q4 i C$ ~

Nicolai Ghiaurov 的音域較廣,從 bass 到 bass baritone 都可以勝任,所以可以完美詮釋這首 Toreador Song。 / N; N: L( U9 T, O) S1 p9 N: e! s, T* g# f8 _3 U! N' _4 t
