    香港中乐团与艺园503

    纽约的H1N1疫情伴随着流感季节的到来似乎愈发难以控制。Trey Lee精彩演义的赵季平写给Yo-Yo Ma的《庄周梦叠》中的那段独奏,被今晚卡耐基音乐厅中此起彼伏的咳嗽声搅和得体无完肤。

    阎 惠昌领衔的香港中乐团在卡耐基的首演却并没有因为几声咳嗽和某人不争气的手机铃声损失了人气。一人发上一个拨浪鼓,最后和乐队一起high,似乎取得了满 意的效果,加演的《彩云追月》和《夜深沉》似乎比郭文景前卫的《滇西土风》和罗永辉的后现代的《漂浮幻想曲》(本人译)更对鬼老们的胃口。

    相比几个略显粗糙的对乐曲的处理和音准的问题,港中乐那马褂长衫算是最让我不能忍受的。完全给人是在办红白喜事的感觉。说实话不如咱们北大民乐团的那黑色的对襟绸面小褂子来得清爽又不失底蕴。

    音 乐会结束,推开卡耐基的大门,已快进入深夜的纽约灯火通明,万圣节的庆祝从周五就开始了。走在第七大街上,看着溜光异彩的时代广场,心却飞到了那个破烂的 艺园503,想起了那些故人,有的卖房子去了,有的去了外企,有的要当公务员,更多的都不知道最后到哪里去了。想起拉板车的李师傅,想起泰国的公主,想起 正大那一成不变的桌席,想起那练了17年的胡琴,看看自己的手,昔日的那丝弦磨出的老茧渐渐在退去。不经意见拾起淡忘的记忆,感觉到曾经那些在文艺圈中的 日子其实还是有温存在心中。

    回家的列车上翻看卡耐基这期的杂志,主题是卡耐基音乐厅主办的这次为期21天的《古今回想》中国文化节。看到了 很多熟悉的名字,比如“中华人民共和国文化部”,招商银行,朗朗,陈齐刚,谭顿。还有一张中央音乐学院1982级作曲系的毕业照。一切都在暗示着这次活动 的官方背景和与祖国60周年大庆的联系。不过相比于10月1号纽约帝国大厦为“共产中国”亮灯若来的麻烦,音乐和艺术给了祖国更多空间来让美国人认识这个 60岁的“共产中国。”

    回到家,发现邮件里有同事的感谢信,感谢我帮他翻译了在中国超市拍下来的描述猪肉部位的标签的照片。所以他终于能买到自己想要的部位了。我确确实实觉得祖国强大了!
