Chasing Pianos: The Piano Music Of Michael Nyman / Valentina Lisitsa

二、心得感想

我第一次聽到Michael Nyman這位編曲家是在千鈞一髮(Gattaca)這部我非常喜歡的電影(看看這個部落格的名字就知道了)，當時我不是很懂何謂極簡主義音樂，到了近年聽了許多極簡主義的音樂，例如:Philip Glass、Max Richter(後極簡)。等人的作品才開始了解極簡主意的魅力，透過同樣緩慢推移的模式將情緒注入其中。當然同樣的模式一直出現有時也被其他人批評。不過我覺得這類音樂有打動到我，在電影中讓情緒昇華這樣就夠了。

Michael Nyman最有名的配樂作品當屬<鋼琴師與她的情人>(The piano)這部電影了。而這張CD將這部電影中最精華的幾段配樂提取出來。至於其他電影我到是都沒聽過。
