「波西米亞女孩」中的詠嘆調 I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls

wunway

I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls (我夢見我居住在大理石城堡) 是 1843 年歌劇 The Bohemian Girl 第二幕中的經典詠嘆調，歌曲背景是從小被綁架的奧地利貴族之女 Arline，愛上了波蘭流亡貴族 Thaddeus，並夢見自己居住在建材高雅的大理石造城堡內。

Joan Sutherland 的版本雖然經過數位化處理，仍聽得出卓越的演唱技巧。Enya 音樂的空靈氣氛，我還蠻喜歡的，她的音樂該歸類在 New Age 音樂範疇，具有心靈治療的功能。

很經典又很好聽的詠嘆調,妙的是,這一陣子我常聽ENYA唱這首歌,卻直到現在才知道她是一首歌劇的詠嘆調!
