5、ve Girls Band.译文助读街头音乐这是一个温暖的星期六的下午，在巴塞罗那老街区的一条繁忙的小路旁。行人在教堂前围成了半圆，围观着什么人或什么事。我挤进人群，发现一支四重奏乐队正在演奏古典音乐小提琴组曲。演奏持续了10分钟。然后，其中一个音乐人拿起地上的碟子开始收钱。所有的捐助都是自愿的，没有人非掏钱不可。但是，随着一些人悄悄走开，人群一下缩小了。其余的人则很高兴地投了一些硬币。他们对于购物时能听到这种简短的音乐插曲很开心。在巴黎我居住的公寓的窗下，一位音乐人占据了先前另一位音乐家空出来的地方。他打开手摇风琴的盖子，摇动把手。然后他唱起了关于古老巴黎的歌曲，关于巴黎人民和他们爱情故事的
6、歌曲。我虽然从未刻意去学，但仍然记住了一些歌词。我用脚打着拍子跟随他一起唱。沿街而下却很少有行人驻足。有些人微笑，有些人低头走过。车辆驶过，成群的男孩子聚了又散，有人甚至还往琴上的杯子里投了一枚硬币。但是这位音乐人却对他们全都视而不见。太阳底下，酷热难挡，于是他用有污迹的手帕擦额头。他只是不停地唱着、摇着把手。在纽约的哈莱姆，一些当地人将音响设备放置在打开的窗户旁。他们把音响设备的插头插入插座，刹那间，街上的人们就跳起了舞。在东京的商业区，年轻的夫妇吃着爆米花，随着一支乡村摇滚乐队的音乐跳舞，这支乐队演奏着五十年代的美洲音乐。在伦敦的地铁里，一个学生弹奏着古典吉他乐，乐声在隧道里回响。它使匆忙
7、上班的乘客情绪激昂。在维也纳、布拉格或米兰的街上，来自遥远的安第斯山脉的管弦乐手们则使空中弥漫着南美洲音乐之声。街头音乐家保持了一种文化的生机，而这种文化在我们紧张忙碌、组织有序和一成不变的生活中已近乎消失：在你最意想不到的时候听到的音乐的声音。在录音棚里，即使被麦克风传播，音乐还是失去了某些活力。但是街头音乐给聆听的每一个人以活力，让他们从一天的焦虑中解脱出来。它只存在于当下，也只有在情景中才有意义。它需要空间。译文助读中国音乐12位年轻美丽的女子，都是二十多岁，她们登上舞台，站在各式各样的古老的乐器前。她们一开始演奏就证明了“女子十二乐坊”的成员都是世界上最具天赋的音乐家。来自中国的“女子

9、年，她们在日本“金碟奖”颁奖仪式上被授予“年度国际艺术家”奖。依托中国1 500多年的音乐文化，“女子十二乐坊”将这浓厚的传统与古典、民间和当代音乐融为一体。该组合的成立与命名极具象征意义，“十二”代表了中国八卦中的一年十二个月的各种不同的方面，并且象征了古老的神话中代表女性的“十二金钗”。灵感也源自唐朝皇宫中女子室内管弦乐队的名称乐坊。“女子十二乐坊”的每个成员都受过古典音乐的培训，并与中国音乐学院、中国国家交响乐团和中央音乐学院等有着很深的渊源。作为技术娴熟的多种乐器的演奏家，她们可以用包括古筝、扬琴、二胡、琵琶、笛子和箫等多种中国传统乐器进行演奏。该乐队的吸引力同样也很广泛。儿童、青少年
10、、成年人和老人都来观看她们的表演。美国的评论家注意到其作品融合了莫扎特与贝多芬的音乐，有爵士乐，如戴夫布鲁贝克的休息5分钟，或是深受人们喜爱的经典作品，如西蒙和加芬克尔的山鹰。该支乐队尊崇自己的音乐遗产并表现出对各种音乐风格的真心热爱从复杂的古典作品到经久不衰的流行乐。课文理解Step Fast reading (教材P55)Whats the main idea of the passage?It introduces an important awardGrammy to us.Step Careful readingRead the text carefully and choose t
