by 村上春樹 ...

Translated by 楊明綺 ...

跟隨村上春樹的喜好享受古典樂收藏的美好本書收錄100篇、486枚唱片關於曲目、演奏家、版本、封面設計親自挑選收藏唱片完整介紹「老唱片棲宿著只有黑膠唱片才有的氛圍。這氛圍有如充滿鄉土氣息的溫泉，從深處逐漸療癒我的心。」「人生啊，到頭來不過就是聚積著沒什麼意義的偏見」世間的評價與基準有時（常常）不適合我，所以我的一貫作法是以適當價格，盡量以便宜價格購入那種「姑且聽聽看」好像頗有趣的唱片，要是不喜歡就處分掉，如果喜歡就留下來；比起別人的評價，我更相信自己的耳朵，以個人喜好為優先考量。我對於善惡、好惡的判斷有時可能有誤或是不恰當，但至少不會造成別人的困擾。我想應該不會。──村上春樹大家都知道村上春樹是爵士樂迷，也喜歡古典樂，然而他喜歡聽哪些古典樂？又會買些什麼樣的古典音樂黑膠唱片呢？他不愛喊到天價的「稀有盤」，演奏家與作曲家當然是遴選基準，有時也因為封套設計很棒而買。這本書要介紹的就是 ...

古典音樂，就是當年的流行曲。音樂家一樣要面對生死愛慾、明爭暗鬥、戰爭流離。看他們怎樣回應時代　景況相通　反照自身古典音樂觸動人心之處，正在於它對生命的各個環節，不論是愛情、友誼、政治、戰爭、飢寒、宗教、哲思等，種種恐懼和憧憬，都深刻地寫進作品之中，激盪聽者心弦，讓他們反思人生。作曲家、演奏家、樂評、樂壇軼事，總之有關古典音樂之種種，在邵頌雄筆下，皆有其魅力，這些文字，觀照了眾生百態，還原了古典音樂這門藝術的光采。評論的作品時代或遠或近，人物或雅或俗，但都能與現世景況相通，讓讀者反照自身。我們讀到的，不再只是關於一首樂曲或一位音樂家的資訊和評價，而是其整個創作的歷史文化背景，有時甚至是政治動機。他寫古典音樂，又不止於古典音樂，他以超越音符以外的世界來引導讀者欣賞這門藝術。--------------------------------------------------- ...
