    自從有聲錄音普及之後,我們認識音樂作品的方式也隨之改變。如今,我們主要透過錄音,而非現場演出,來認識音樂作品。然而,演出者的詮釋,自然也更影響我們對音樂作品的認識。貝多芬的樂譜可能改變不大,但八十年前的貝多芬演奏,必然和今日的貝多芬演奏有所不同。這個節目不只介紹古典音樂作品,更介紹古典音樂錄音背後的故事:為什麼會有這個錄音?這個錄音又造成什麼影響?認識作品,也帶我們認識這些音樂藝術家。播講介紹:焦元溥,國立台灣大學政治學系國際關係組畢業,倫敦國王學院音樂學博士、大英圖書館艾迪生研究員。是台灣知名樂評人、資深專欄作家。好家庭廣播電台《焦點音樂》、《NSO Live雲端音樂廳》主持人。2013年以「焦點音樂」獲第48屆金鐘獎廣播金鐘獎最佳非流行音樂節目獎。著有許多與音樂相關的書籍,內容涵蓋音樂作品分析、詮釋討論、鋼琴演奏技巧解析、音樂家訪問、國際鋼琴大賽報導與文學創作。章節名稱 ...
