哥倫比亞唱片公司錄音全集 / 艾琳．法瑞爾 (16CD)

艾琳．法瑞爾Eileen Farrell (女高音)

●艾琳．法瑞爾20世紀美國最偉大女高音之一。
●2020年為其誕生100週年。
●專輯包含6張LP錄音，首度以CD格式發行。
●「每日郵報」讚譽：她在歌唱家中的份量，就如同尼加拉瓜之於瀑布中的地位。

1958年留聲機雜誌的唱片評論表示：「若是要靠歌唱比賽決定國家命運，美國可能會選擇艾琳．法瑞爾代表參賽，如此我們的國家安全才得以保障。」 而「這位『美國最出色的戲劇女高音』不僅擁有宏亮的音色，並擁有足以反應其個人特質溫暖音質。」2020年是她誕生100週年，Sony唱片公司特別將旗下哥倫比亞唱片所發行過的艾琳．法瑞爾重新集結發行。

艾琳．法瑞爾（Eileen Farrell, 1920 – 2002）是美國著名的女高音，擁有寬廣的音域與渾厚的低音，演唱生涯將近60年。幼年跟隨在馬戲團演出的雙親四處巡迴並啟蒙演唱發掘潛力，之後接受正統聲樂訓練。因而演唱生涯橫跨古典聲樂與流行歌曲，在音樂會、劇院、廣播電視和唱片中，皆可見到她在各類型歌曲自在悠遊的身影。

「每日郵報」（The Daily Telegraph）讚譽她是「20世紀最優秀的美國女高音之一，她的歌聲恢弘大度，擁有能夠完美詮釋各種角色的敏銳性及藝術性」，其歌聲被形容為「自然界無與倫比的現象。她在歌唱家中的份量，就如同尼加拉瓜之於瀑布中的地位。」2006年美國的國家公共廣播電台（NPR, National Public Radio）所出版的「古典音樂欣賞百科全書」指出：「她的歌聲洪亮、光芒四射，是20世紀歌劇界最好的聲音之一。」

這套專輯包含16張CD，收錄艾琳．法瑞爾1946-1963年間為哥倫比亞唱片公司所錄製的所有錄音。其中6張LP專輯首度以CD格式發行。並以24 bit / 192 kHz的技術將母帶重新處理。專輯保留了原始專輯的封面，並仿黑膠唱片的方

專輯錄音內容包羅萬象，包含美國百老匯歌曲、古典時期葛路克與契魯比尼的歌劇、貝多芬的《莊嚴彌撒》、舒伯特與舒曼之藝術歌曲、浪漫時期普契尼、威爾第、華格納的歌劇選曲、近代德布西的藝術歌曲、蓋希文的歌曲，以及「可笑的情人」（My Funny Valentine）與民謠「丹尼男孩」等。

艾琳．法瑞爾兼具寬廣聲域的歌聲、渾厚底蘊的聲音與高貴音色的歌喉，透過這些重新整理過的錄音又再度復活。難得完整集結的生前重要錄音，將其令人無法忘懷的絕世演唱盡皆收錄在這一套專輯中。其備受讚譽的夢幻美聲，唯有親身體會才得以驗證。
