$ N. Y% F( ^: b* B DToreador 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。 ; X5 z# T- X- e8 w6 B3 [( t$ E w& Q2 w/ W6 D) _) b

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。 # W; ]4 ~2 q* P & X0 f! X& m4 s g
