程璧2019年最新专辑《北欧回声:春天》。在大西洋与北冰洋交汇、北极圈萦绕的地方,有一片无比美丽的土地,那些冰川和极光,与奇妙的神话交相辉映,在瑰丽的湖泊、岛屿和森林之中,正诉说着古老的文明。北欧,这片土地上,诞生了无数夺目的瑰宝,既有驯鹿飞过天空,也有安徒生讲着童话故事。同样,这些美好的文化中,也有着音乐的一席之地。这里诞生了很多出色的音乐人,也正影响着世界音乐的发展。
Sebastian就是一位这样的音乐人,他是丹麦著名的艺人和词曲人,五十年来,他在丹麦和北欧音乐界取得了无可争辩的成绩,并作为丹麦最出色的词曲人之一而闻名。虽然与中国相隔千万公里,如今,我们也可以非常近距离感受到这些动人的音符和诗句。
今年,在丹麦驻华大使馆的支持下,腾讯音乐人和北欧音乐出版公司Edition Wilhelm Hansen共同开启了这个颇具意义的音乐计划,这个音乐计划被命名为《北欧回声 / Nordic Echo》。正在发布的这张合辑使用中文诠释了Sebastian最著名的10首作品,由程璧、陈鸿宇、低苦艾乐队、何小河、李霄云、梁晓雪、莫西子诗、宋黛霆、徐海俏、叶凡Danni等中国音乐人和乐队演绎。丹麦音乐制作团队Morten Luxhøi奔赴中国进行录音,历时半年,这项跨国工程正逐渐雕琢出更加清晰的模样,呈现在大家面前。
从入行之初,Sebastian就开始与众多的艺术家合作。1987年,他与挪威歌手Sissel Kyrkjebø(西塞尔·凯尔杰布)一起录制了这首优美的爱情赞美诗。在程璧和莫西子诗演绎的中文版本中,二人以其独特的音色和个性地解读赋予了这首作品全新的生命力。
Sebastian is a renowned Danish singer/composer and has during five decades established himself as one of Denmark's best songwriters. With record sales of more than 2 million and with several musical and opera successes behind him, he has made an undisputable mark on the Danish music scene.
In 2018 Sebastian received Hans Christian Andersen's Prize. Throughout his career he has formed a partnership with H.C. Andersen by composing melodies to some of H.C. Andersen's poems as well as interpreting and rewriting themes and fairytales into his own songs.
This year, Tencent Musician and Nordic Music publisher Edition Wilhelm Hansen have agreed on releasing Sebastian's music in Chinese. The cooperation has resulted in an album featuring 10 of Sebastian’s most well- known songs, interpreted and recorded by established Chinese artists and band, including Adai Song, Cheng Bi, Chen Hongyu, Doris Ho, Danni Ye, Haiqiao Xu, Kulu, L.X.Y,Low Wormwood, and Moxi Zishi .
