A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
音乐会
Concert
Don't get me wrong - I've gone to a club. But I'd much rather be with my close friends at home or a concert, or on a trip. I'll go dancing with my grandma. She likes to cut a rug!
别误会我的意思——我去俱乐部了。但是我更愿意和我的好朋友呆在家里,或者去听音乐会,或者去旅行。我要和我奶奶去跳舞。她喜欢剪地毯!
When people come to a concert, they wanna hear the hits, the big radio songs, and they wanna hear them how they're used to hearing them. I like playing them how they were recorded.
当人们来听音乐会的时候,他们想听热门歌曲,大的广播歌曲,他们想听他们是如何习惯听的。我喜欢用录音的方式播放它们。
What the Who is all about is exactly that and it always has been. If it exists today for this concert, it's in response again to a function which is happening out there on the street.
世界卫生组织就是这样,而且一直都是这样。如果它今天还存在于这场音乐会中,那也是对街头表演的回应。
I cannot give a single concert at which I do not play one piece after the other in an agony of terror because my memory threatens to fail me. This fear torments me for days beforehand.
我不能在一场音乐会上不演奏一曲又一曲,因为我的记忆力可能要衰退了。这种恐惧折磨了我好几天。
A lot of performers don't want to leave the circuit, the European opera house circuit, partly because most singers don't sing many concerts, or at least not while they are in their prime.
很多表演者不想离开欧洲歌剧院的巡回演出,部分原因是大多数歌手不经常演唱音乐会,或者至少不是在他们的黄金时期。
That person who's going to a concert for a nostalgic reason, we're not really going to placate. We still play three or four hits every night. Now, we don't play them like the record. We try to find new ways to do it.
那些因为怀旧原因去听音乐会的人,我们不会真的去安抚他们。我们仍然每天晚上演奏三四支安打。现在,我们不像唱片那样播放它们。我们试图找到新的方法来做这件事。
New Year's Eve, we're going to be doing a concert with the Philadelphia Orchestra in Symphony Hall. It makes me feel good, because of all the people they could have had, they wanted me! We do have to do a little work with the rhythm section.
新年前夜,我们要和费城交响乐团在交响乐大厅举行一场音乐会。这让我感觉很好,因为他们本可以拥有的所有人都想要我!我们必须在节奏部分做一些工作。
During the Second World War, nobody built any concert halls or theaters. After the war, Lincoln Center was a very brave project because all those architects had never built a theater before. We've learned a lot since then about the nature of materials and the isolation that's required.
在第二次世界大战期间,没有人建造音乐厅或剧院。战后,林肯中心是一个非常勇敢的项目,因为所有这些建筑师以前从来没有建过剧院。从那以后,我们学到了很多关于材料的性质和所需的隔离。
KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Sure I destroyed my guitar at every concert, but it was okay, because I'd always get a shiny new one the very next day.
当然,每次音乐会我都把吉他弄坏了,但没关系,因为第二天我总会得到一把崭新的。
A concert is always like a feast day to me.
音乐会对我来说就像一个盛宴。
You want to go to a summer concert and not watch a band staring at its shoes for six hours and complaining.
你想去参加一场夏季音乐会,而不是看着一个乐队盯着自己的鞋子抱怨六个小时。
I decided during my teens that I wasn't going to have the life of a concert pianist, much to the chagrin of a lot of people who had put a lot of money into me!
在我十几岁的时候,我决定我不打算过钢琴演奏家的生活,这让很多在我身上投了很多钱的人很懊恼!
Then, for a hot three or four weeks I wanted to be a concert pianist.
然后,在接下来的三四个星期里,我想成为一名音乐会钢琴家。
Almost every one of my various zero numbered birthdays has had a big concert in London and often in Paris.
几乎我所有的零号生日都在伦敦举行过盛大的音乐会,而且经常在巴黎举行。
