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。 ! ~0 i: c# |6 r/ r G% P( d . U, g6 ~6 r& C5 I* I0 y/ |1 P/ O
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。 + ~" n# z! L* W: C" s / F* _! ^3 m+ R6 e2 C5 t" W7 D# i+ U: `1 m& q4 {- c8 t( P

世界知名男低音 Nicolai Ghiaurov 五十年前錄製的版本。6 T. j# b# l0 i6 R! T
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。- |& q# {9 o2 z& H: n
