简介:
这是一张主要集合了英国和爱尔兰艺术歌曲的专辑，收入了包括Rahlph Vaughan Williams和Britten在内的众多作曲家的作品。它们或由作曲家为著名诗人的诗作配乐而成，或是作曲家改编的英国和爱尔兰传统民谣；诗人包括莎士比亚、叶慈、济慈、罗塞蒂等，民谣又有The Sally Gardens, Linden Lea等作品。专辑里面的歌曲风格对比强烈丰富，有着很强的英国特色，个人认为是一张非常耐听的专辑。
演唱者Ian Bostridge是英国男高音Ian Bostridge原本是一个热爱音乐的牛津大学历史博士，在一场大赛获奖之后成为了一名专业歌唱家，以演唱舒伯特、舒曼、沃夫、亨策、布里顿等作曲家的艺术歌曲见长，同时也参演了不少莫扎特、布里顿的歌剧，最近很著名的作品是奥芬巴赫的《威尼斯之死》。他的《美丽的磨坊女》（VeryCD上有）是一张想到受好评的专辑。
注：由于没有扫描仪，专辑封面和唱片说明都是用Canon拍下来的，效果还不错；今后我将进一步完善；
Ian Bostridge的资料和英国艺术歌曲的有关资料我会找时间翻译。
