Jules Massenet - Cendrillon (version Chant - Piano) 聖歌鋼琴
灰姑娘》(Cendrillon)的劇本由亨利-凱恩(Henri Cain)根據佩羅的童話改編,於 1899 年在巴黎首演。作曲家儒勒-馬斯內(Jules Massenet,1842-1912 年)以創作 30 多部歌劇而聞名,他特意沒有參加首演,但第二天就收到了男中音福熱爾的電報,記錄了首演的成功。 該劇融入了作曲家的幽默和詼諧,對反復出現的主題的運用十分巧妙,通常被認為是受到了理查-瓦格納的啟發。仙德麗永》的音樂與 18 世紀的音樂相呼應,融入了英勇的音樂、琵琶和中提琴的使用以及一系列芭蕾舞的開場。歌劇共分四幕,有 19 個角色和一個合唱團。白馬王子的角色是一個馬褲角色,而神仙教母的旋律線條則以顫音和琶音為特色。馬斯內的《仙履奇緣》至今仍廣為流傳,並於 2011 年在英國皇家歌劇院上演

原文簡介:
“Cendrillon (Cinderella), with a libretto by Henri Cain based on Perrault's fairytale, premiered in 1899 in Paris. Best known for composing over thirty operas, the composer, Jules Massenet (1842-1912) purposely did not attend the premiere, but received a telegram the following day from baritone Fugère recording its triumph. Incorporating the composer's sense of humour and wit, the use of recurrent motifs is subtle and often thought to be inspired by Richard Wagner. Cendrillon contains musical echoes of the 18th century, incorporating gallant music, the use of the Lute and Viola D'Amore and a series of Ballet entrées. The Opera is in four acts with 19 characters and a chorus. The role of Prince Charming is a breeches role whilst the melody lines of the Fairy Godmother are characterised by trills and arpeggios. Massenet's Cendrillon remains popular to this day and was notably performed at the Royal Opera House in 2011.”
