M& D; J: j' ? s: B3 F hI 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。 ! _; o* g8 h: y9 I. Y# A- P6 O0 _4 B. [% I
1936 年,Laurel and Hardy (勞萊與哈弟) 系列電影之一 A Comedy Version of The Bohemian Girl 中,有一個 Jacqueline Wells 的版本很受歡迎,演唱的情緒也很契合歌劇中要表達的情境。Laurel and Hardy 兩人是早年台灣電影「王哥與柳哥」系列的原型,年代已久,鮮少年輕人知道,而這首詠嘆調,經愛爾蘭女歌手 Enya 在錄音室裡繁複雕琢與包裝後,變成一首空靈唯美的美聲作品。1 a; U) x' l' _1 o$ @. \

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。- \- A1 d& a" Y9 k
