Do you know the name of everyone in your choir?
[this is a version of a post which first appeared on my blog From the Front of the Choir]
I’m ashamed to say that I don’t know the name of every singer in my choir.
Unless choir members come for a drink after a...

巴洛克時期偉大的作曲家韓德爾(George Frederic Handel, 1685-1759),出生於德國,1712年赴英國發展,以歌劇創作佔有一席之地,然而1730年代歌劇熱潮漸衰,韓德爾遭逢劇院破產,加上身體中風、精神喪亂的危機,在他人生谷底,收到好友詹寧斯(Charles Jennens)寄來神劇《彌賽亞》文本,深受感動,遂在1741年完成了這部長達兩個半小時的巨作,首演大獲成功,也挽救了他的事業。
「彌賽亞」的意思是「救世主」,歌詞依聖經經文寫成,全劇以簡樸流暢的旋律、雄偉的氣勢、華麗的技巧、明亮的和聲交織而成,將人聲與器樂發展到極致,〈因有一嬰孩為我們而生〉是其中最具聖誕節慶氣氛的一首合唱曲,歌詞取自以賽亞書九章6節,四個聲部如爭豔般展現花腔技巧,四個重複段落層層堆疊,表現世人迎接救主降生的喜樂。
For unto us a child is born,
unto us a son is given,
and the government shall be upon his shoulder;
and his name shall be called
Wonderful, Counsellor, the Mighty God,
the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace.
因有一嬰孩為我們而生
有一子賜給我們
政權必擔在他的肩頭上
他名稱為
奇妙、策士、全能的上帝
永在的父、和平的君 less

A silly a-cappella number based on an idea from an old epigram "Scylla is toothless".
Scylla becomes a vintage headmaster in this version but the results are similar.
My old headmaster hasn`t got one tooth
But he had teeth enough back in my youth
He told me off then every single day
But now his tongue has worn his teeth away!
Original unattributed epigram:
On an old Scold
Scylla is toothless, yet, when she was young
She had both teeth enough and too much tongue.
What shall we, then, of toothless Scylla say
But that her tongue has worn her teeth away? less
