To W,
多謝你的意見。其實我最近買的幾十張cd都是emi的Great Recording of Century。我在pro sound買，57蚊一隻，堪稱平通港九。rach的交響曲暫時沒多大興趣了，我自己擁有的則是Mariss Jansons的版本。dvd方面，是不是尚書房的超平大陸版？weekend我要去看一看。
To JJ,
我會再留心聽一聽。我是聽了Maisky後才聽他，所以一比之下就有個即時反應︰Rostropovich缺一點火......不過我倒覺得收了火才算上品。

EMI的Great Recording of Century系列買五個items送雙cd既catalogue(好多人都吼住),可以考慮.
參考價格:
HK Record $68@
HMV $69@

留意下Edo de Waart響Exton(日本牌子)既Rachmaninoff交響曲全集.
聽左隻第二交響曲, lum到震!

大陸dvd又有新一批貨,包括Vladimir Fedoseyev指揮Moscow Raido Sym. Orch響Frankfurt玩Tchaikovsky交響曲及協奏曲全集,鋼琴獨奏係Mikhail Pletnev! 可以買隻「柴一鋼協」加「悲愴」試一試先.

群芳基金捐二百萬嶺大籌款數字達二千三萬

【本報訊】記者王凱音報道：大學在削資下各出奇謀籌款，但博士論文及著作拓財源的威力也不可小窺。群芳慈善基金會原本捐一百萬元予嶺大「實踐服務研習計劃」，但因為欣賞嶺大博士一本內容關於戲曲的著作，再加碼捐一百萬元予嶺大發展「群芳文化研究及發展部」，合共捐出二百萬元，令嶺大籌款數字達二千三百萬元。
戲曲著作拋磚引玉
群芳慈善基金會創辦人楊梁燕芳 (芳艷芬 )與李曾超群昨親臨嶺大主持支票遞交儀式。據楊梁燕芳和李曾超群表示：看到嶺大文化研究系副教授李小良著的一本關於《中國戲曲的易服》 (譯名 )的著作，再捐出一百萬元予嶺大，作發展文化研究之用。身為嶺南
小學校友的李曾超群更說：「覺得嶺大規模較小，而政府幫都會幫大規模的，所以我們現在幫嶺大。」
龍應台英語講文化
嶺大文化研究系及文化研究碩士課程主任陳清僑表示，基金會捐出一百萬元助嶺大文化研究的拓展，希望打破地域文化的關卡，結合及探研東亞以至國際領域就中國文化所產生的影響。
「群芳文化研究及發展部」開幕式公開講座，邀得教授龍應台首以英語公開主講「文化政策與身份認同的追尋」，並會在四月舉行「芳艷芬中國文化研究傑出學者講座」，首個主題為「粵劇電影的性別政治」。另外，他指出文化研究及發展部早前獲教育統籌局撥出四十萬，由本月至五月，為本港初中教師提供初中綜合人文學科的培訓。
另外，嶺大「實踐服務研習計劃」主任陳章明則表示，學校鼓勵學生及長者透過與本科相關的社區服務的計劃，自推行以來有近四十名學生參加，資源增加後可望推廣至一百名學生，並進一步惠及更多長者及南亞人士。
就讀嶺大社會科學系的三年級學生陳嘉怡說參加計劃後，不單改變了認為長者古板的想法，更與「潮爆」長者相處融合，較以前的想法正面樂觀。而五十多歲的馮泰松笑說自參加計劃後，才發覺自己的不足，從他三次生病及遇到意外的生死關口中覺醒，發現生命可貴及長者亦可以很積極，還有可領略到團隊生活的精髓。

至於民樂是否能夠抬頭，這是個相當複雜的問題。我們應以什麼來衡量成敗？以唱片的銷量？以國際的知名度？以學生數目的多寡？還是以音樂的質素？前三個標準純是市場的考慮，並不足以反映音樂質量，但音樂質素本身亦沒有一個共同的標準，那我們可以如何去定下準則？就香港的情況來說，樂坊出現之後學習中樂的人是否多了，我是抱否定態度的，一是數目上根本沒明顯的加增，二是越來越多學生對於傳統曲目一無所知，原因是他們根本沒興趣去聽，更惶論好好學習。有些老師壓根兒就放棄了傳統曲目的教授，這對我來說是非常荒謬的，沒有了傳統音樂的浸淫，根本難以掌握樂器的基本技巧和本身的特色，那為何還要學中國樂器？不若轉學西方樂器和西方音樂更來得乾脆。那麼，怎樣的發展才是讓「民樂抬頭」的路向？我想這並不是個能清楚界定的議題。起碼，中樂西化對我來說絕不等於「民樂抬頭」。（若一個民族要放棄自己的文化傳統才能抬頭，這是何等可悲的事情。）
另外，我認為這類音樂實驗的最大隱憂，是有些不認識中國音樂的人會以為這就是中國音樂。我可不是隨口亂說的，我有一學生的家長就與我的學生爭辯，說既然歌曲是用中國樂器來演奏，那有不是中國音樂之理。這對於我們這些音樂人來說可能非常不可理喻，但一些文化（我是說音樂文化）水平比較低的人來說，這卻是普遍不過的現象。當有一天，學生上門來學琴都要求我教十二樂坊所奏的樂曲時，這並不是喜訊，這只代表了中國音樂真真正正喪失了它的立足之地。
在保存傳統藝術的工作上，日本比中國要好得多，基本上，他們的傳統藝術傳承與新音樂發展是同時進行的，一方面作多方面的嚐試，一方面又極力將傳統文化妥善保留，因此他們敢誇口自己仍保留了唐代的音樂，而同時又能成為東南亞流行音樂的先驅。但中國人的思維從來都不是這樣。中國人認為藝術是活生生的，只有有活力的音樂才值得留下來，因此一些被認為是舊的文化和音樂，通常都不作妥善的保存，而導致其逐漸失傳（古琴音樂例外）。藝術發展原是好事，但這並不代表可以忘本。最成功的新音樂發展，都是建基於對於不同音樂文化的深入理解，這是不二的事實。中國境內所作的新音樂嚐試，成功的例子不算多，也源於一些人對於自身文化與外國文化的無知。這是個很嚴厲的批評，但事實確是如此。今天，眼見新一代的民樂樂手對於傳統音樂的掌握越來越淺，實在讓人對中國音樂文化的發展感到灰暗。不過現實歸現實，人是要生活的，當市場再不需要舊的東西，轉行或改變策略是明智的，而且這也並非樂手們可以控制的範疇了。因此要中國民樂抬頭，我想並不是一兩個樂坊就能成就的宏願。

音樂方面，不用多說了，你的主項是Jazz/Funk/Fusion一類，我的主項則是中國及西方傳統音樂，我們的著眼點分別太大了，無可否認你對於這類不同音樂文化結合的實驗有較大的包容。我自己一直也有聽爵士樂的，但時間所限，所認識的只能是皮毛，當然不能與你相比。但我也不是沒有演奏爵士樂的經驗，97年藝術節王曉南以二胡奏藍調音樂的音樂會，我也是演出嘉賓之一（不過，我對於其他樂手的背景倒是忽略了）。以一個內行人的身份去聽中國樂器演奏西方音樂是艱難的，因為我們對於中國樂器聲響上的要求太高了。中國音樂與西洋音樂的一大分別，在於前者於意境、深度、修養這類抽象概念要求甚高，而這些標準又是非常個人的。我也不要求所有人明白，正如我自己對於Fusion音樂的好壞亦屬一知半解一樣。不過，不同的耳朵聽出來的東西絕對會是天壤之別的。因此沒有一個共同的背景，沒有一個相似的立足點，討論這類問題根本不會亦不應有結論。
你有沒有聽過這樣的一個笑話︰清末時代，一個中國官員被邀請欣賞西洋交響樂。音樂會結束，一些洋人問這位官員音樂是否動聽，他說︰「不過不失吧，但我倒是覺得有一段非常好聽，那就是指揮出來之前的一段。（按︰即是樂隊tune音的一段）」這個笑話說明，音樂根本不是世界性的，對於音樂的好壞是以個人的文化背景來衡量的。我想，這應該已是現代民族音樂學者的共識吧。

無聊人君︰
很高興能收到你的回音，也高興能認識你的背景多一點。對於樂坊的討論，是不能有任何定論的了。我想也是時候靜看他們的發展。我對於這十二個天真無邪的樂手是絕無惡意的，對於他們的技巧也不會致疑，問題是他們的經理人王曉京先生對於這個樂坊由名稱到包裝以致音樂的選取都太過有「內容」，因而讓我對他們的出現作出否定。我想在美國應該接觸不到一些在香港的新聞報導。我很驚訝地在電視上看到一個關於樂坊的宣傳，他們無論在衣著以致於團員自我介紹的手法，都與十年前午夜後夜總會或桑拿浴的廣告一模一樣，但問題是王曉京竟對這種報導毫無異議。當中涉及的可能是文化差異的問題（中國內地人的審美可能與我們不一樣），但更多的是王先生自己的策略問題。對於十二位樂手，我認為他們對這些概念根本毫不知情，否則，我想他們也會表現出強烈的不滿。但無論如何，經理人容許傳謀作出這種渲染，是有他的市場目的的。
另外就是「樂坊」這個字的含意，它原出自唐代的宮廷「教坊」，這是王曉京先生在Cup的專訪之中親自帶出的。但「教坊」到唐末及宋明的時代，已倫為妓院青樓一類，是煙花野草之地，對於教坊的史料，一直以來都是中國妓院史的最大資料來源，這方面可能是只有我們這些研究中國音樂史的人才了解的事實了。但問題是王曉京先生既能說出「教坊」的名字，則表示他對於這些歷史略知一二，但為何他還是執意要用這個名稱呢？這也是非常有「深意」的。

也高興與你在此交流, 也首先因誤會你到別處對樂坊作出惡劣批評而致歉. 但有數點我需強調的.
在本人耳中Bond及Vanessa Mae等在技術及音樂造藝上是比不上樂坊的. 我也有一雙Trained ears, 若不我便不可能於十多年多前已於Boston的Berklee College Of Music 及L.A. 的Musicians Institute 取得學位與文憑, 你所拋出的美國流行音樂史只是我們中學時代的音樂課題已而, 就像是每一個香港人都必知道香港曾被英國殖民統治一樣間單, 我所談及的是今天的所有主導音樂, 都是由不同元素交互出來的, 如果這些意念早被反駁或壓抑的話, 今日被受頂尖的樂手敬獻的Fusion便不會存在. 也不會這樣多姿多采了.

本人有幸跟眾多世界級頂尖樂合作, 工作過, 有jazz 的如Dave Weckl, Tom Kennedy, George Brookes, Steve Lukather, Frank Gambale, Mike Stern…等, 有Rock的如Derek Sherinian, Eric Singer, Virgil Donati, Paul Gilbert…, 跟他們交流啟發良多, 他們都有一共通點, 就是不會為音樂設定界限, 抱著最開放的態度, 看看 George Brookes 把印度的Tabla 為rhythm section作主, 著名鼓手Steve Smith也樂於作倍襯, 對! 也有加入Sitar呢, 沒什麼稀奇啊! 令人拍按叫絕, 誰敢說他的不是Jazz? 音樂只有好或不好, 當然這也與技術掛勾.

論技術, 相信殷焱的二胡及張爽的琵琶可給著名的Rock 結他大師Steve Vai, Paul Gilbert來相比, 相信他們可輕易奏出二人的任何一段Solo 呢. 不用懷疑我的耳朵, 不然我不會受僱於他們的錄音工作.

當然我不會笨得當樂坊的Take Five當作Jazz來欣嘗, 我也對他們此曲沒抱太大興趣, 但本就是中國民樂器, 把他們跟Dave Brubeck Quartet 的經典相比公平嗎? 在日本的”New Classicism” 中段的Solo Section的確有Call and response 呢. 所奏的模式或所用的Scales 的確吻合西方的流行音樂, 是帶有Rock 元素的, 可能不是他們自己的手筆, 相信是隊中結他手為他們編排的, 但他們做到了, 也做得非常好, 就這樣把我這個成長於外地, 一直對中樂不耐煩的我深深吸引住, 那種民樂器的淒涼味道放在西方音樂帶給我的感覺是前所未有的, 當然那 “相愛已無” 那Bossa Nova, Songo feel 的 “花兒與少年” 等都是混種的失敗証明, 也使我受不了, 可能是亞洲始終沒有這個根, 又可能是民樂器根本不可能奏出那些類型吧. 但 “阿拉木汗” 加入Baion的rhythm也變出有趣悅耳的效果, “香格里拉” “散慢” New Age得勝過Enigma呢.

總結是樂坊使我這幾乎忘掉祖國的中國人發起了一點思鄉情懷, 四處尋找民樂器的資料, 被” 紫禁城” 的調子感動得有衝動到實地了解它的歷史.
希望你也從另一角度看看, 我想他也帶動了很多人學習民樂吧. 你不是也為此得益嗎? 再者, 遠離祖國的我也不忍心看見為音樂付出一生的出色樂手呆在大陸的劇團裏討著數百元人民幣的人工或討著時薪數十元的家教啊. 我估你的收費也高出他們數倍吧. 為中國民樂器能踏出國際而高興吧, 希望不會是過眼雲煙, 音樂也可是一種感覺, 忘記類別的界綫, 最少, 樂坊把我和祖國拉近, 也曾把我和你拉在一起.

祝你在民樂抬頭的同時, 早日開到你自己的 “樂坊”

In case people would like to listen to some experimental music combining chinese music and western accompaniment, there are always some CDs produced in China which features an erhu or Guzheng playing popular music. I have come across one which use Guzheng to play hawaiian tunes, whose result is up to you to judge. A more successful trial belongs to the "Pacific Moon" series done by the Japanese which appears on the market from 1998, using all the traditional musical instruments and backing with sythesizer or other instrumental ensembles. Or you might also like to hear how Toru Takemitsu combined western orchestra and traditional Japanese musical instruments. Believe me or not, same type of experiment has been done from the early 20th century onward.

Some more comments: The real innovation of the blues/jazz/funk/rock business came from the infiltration of black gospel music and work songs into American folk songs to create the Blues. That is the only true mixing of different musical cultures (Well as a matter of fact, the Gospel music is already an acculturated genre, but let's regard it as belonging to the black people). All the other styles were developed from this genre. Please be reminded that apart from the Africans, all the other cultures you mentioned belong to the same linguistic system, which highly affect their musical style, making their music easily interchangeable. The different versions of "Autumn Leaves" are good examples of how closely related their basic structures of music are, so that the song could be sung in all different styles without great difficulties. The same thing happens in 廣東 also, where the same set of lyrics can be sung in all 5 different types of 說唱 style (南音、粵謳、拍眼、龍舟、木魚) and they all sounds good. I am equally amazed by a jazz piano rendition of Ravel's Balero, which successfully gives the music a brand new face. But all of them operate under the same musical systems. Playing "Take Five" with Chinese Musical instrument is another thing. It is like one morning you wake up and hear an Indian sitar player playing Autumn Leaves in Indian style. I don't know whether you'd still like it or not. But please don't mixed up the experiment done by the 12 girls workshop with that of the jazz/funk players.
Neoclassicism is the revival of Roman and Greek Arts in the 19th C. France. In music it means a revival of Baroque and Classical style in late 19th to early 20th C. as a reaction to the dramatic and forceful Romantic style. They were only small part of the music scene and were taken over by other styles quickly. So when they term the song "New Classicism", what do they mean? Where is the "classic"? What is new about it? What is it reacting against? And I am disappointed that the 4 erhus actually play unison most of the time, with a few moments when 2 of them are silent, but never really call and respond to each other. Forgive me for pointing out their poor intonation in the middle section. They are really unacceptable in a trained ear.

For the style of music, that's totally out of the question now, coz the case is I expect jazzy feeling and your don't. The situation is the same when a Russian Balalika group plays the Chinese 茉莉花, some people like it, while the others thought it's disastrous. The rest is only a question of choice. And if you really like to know how technically competent they are, go to the Central Conservatory of China in Beijing and ask the professors there, maybe they can give you a fair answer.
Another thing is the commercial and the classical market is basically separated. The classical aura is always too critical, and the commercial focus too much on profit. I belong to the conservative "classical" party, and I admit that I am critical of the new music appearing on the market these days. From the point of view of an "insider" (coz I play some of the instruments myself), I have my own value judgment on the quality of their performance basing on my own exposure. I don't like this group, for sure, just because it represents neither Chinese nor Western sonorities, nor does it gives me any new excitement. Well actually I appreciate their effort to introduce 獨弦琴 and 葫蘆絲to the rest of world, but that's another question. If they could eventually give way to a new musical style, that's really a miracle, and I'd like to witness it also.
For my own recording, you could express your disgust, and I feel sick every time I heard it too. It is not my choice, but the company's. I am just doing what they want. And there are people who like to listen to them, just like you love the 12 girls workshop. So if you think I don't have the right to voice my dislike to this group (and I only do it in my own place!) just because you love it, please be considerate and think of those who love canto pop music.

無聊人君︰
I appreciate this type of exchange. At least I know you are knowledgeable of the origin of the song and listen to different kinds of music, not just pop genre alone.
Originally I wrote the diary for myself. It is neither a forum, nor is it meant to provoke argument. The point is you can have your own preference on certain kind of music and I have mine. I wrote my feelings in my own place, and you have yours. That's why I never go to forum to post my opinions, coz opinions are opinions, not the truth. And I don't meant to step down on those who have the opposite opinions, but seems people like you do.
I am well aware of the new musical genre created by the acculturation or mixing of different musical cultures. Some of them are very successful, some of them not. The best example is the Chinese Orchestra, on which many Western scholars have already expressed their disgust. If the logic is successful predecessors can guarantee successful new-comers, then you may also like to conclude that 法輪功would become a great world religion coz they are violently suppressed by the Chinese Govt, just like Early Christian Church by the Roman Govt.
The 12 girls workshop is gaining tremendous success now, but it cannot guarantee a long-lasting effect, just like Bond and Vanessa Mae who almost disappear from the HK music scene. And performers like 丁菲飛and 王曉南 , and some of the players in the HKCO also play pop genres like the 12 girls workshop do. Why couldn't they get the same popularity? Are they really worse then this group stylistically and technically? I don't think so. It's a matter of marketing and promotion.

First of all, 無聊人is the name, and I think it’s also the name you used to post your critic to “The 12 Girls Band” in some other website’s forum.
<第二, 我奏那首流行曲純為吸取經驗及賺錢>
You think ‘The 12 Girls band’ is not gaining music experience and playing music to make living? Beside make money. Ensure that their music quality is away better than the terrible canto-pop that you played.

<第三，請先聽一聽Herbie Hancock及Paul Desmond的Take Five版本然後再作比較，並請多了解爵士樂是什麼一回事>
Take Five is written by Sax. Player Paul Desmond, but actually it released under the name of Dave Brubeck Quartet in 1959, Paul Desmond has only released another similar song called Take Ten on his solo album in 1973. Dave Brubeck performed Take Five in France, 1983, with another line-up, without Paul Desmond and drummer Joe Morello, then, of course, the taste of the song is totally a different story, Is it fair to compare ’12 girls band’ with the original version of Take Five? The version of ’12 girls band’ is not arranged as a traditional jazz setting, they just using the Main Theme of the tune, to developed a pop sort of music, without any solo improvisation on it, as we often heard in a traditional Jazz settings. The Intro of the ’12 girls band’ version is comes in by a funk grooves, then, some of the sections are still using Swing beat, and it still swing! Of course, we can’t expect that they could sounds too Jazzy, since we don’t have any roots and history of Jazz in China (Asian country). So, what did you expect them? Wanna see all the instruments to improvised solo for 8 Chorus each? But I believe their techniques and music sense could do it, but the arrangement of the tune is not purpose for that. You should check out their “ New Classicism”. The Erhu players really Trading Four in the middle of the song.

Different Jazz musicians ‘ve been played the same standard Jazz tunes, e.g. Autumn Leaves, different people’d play with different feel, at different tempo, Stan Getz’s been played a Bossa Nova style for that. Some famous fusion player even played it as a hip-hop funk style, so what’s wrong with that?
<批評的不是技巧，而是音樂風格>
There was only Jazz/Swing in long ago, if people refused to bring the Brazilian rhythms to Jazz, there would not have Bossa Nova and Samba today, and also many others Afro-Cuban Jazz, think about it!
If there’s no African rhythm, there’s not Jazz, if there’s no Jazz, there’s no Blues and Rock, no Blues and Rock, there’d be no R&B and Funk…..etc. If there’s no combinations of all the above, there’s no today’s Fusion. Please open your eyes, accept new materials.
<刻薄的用辭並不能加強歪理的真確性>
這兩隊人的東西，要不是這麼便宜我是怎樣都不會買的！回到202立即看那女子十二樂坊，真的太過難以接受了，感覺上與Bond非常相類，
但又沒有他們的熱情及開放。最好笑的是他們以四支二胡代替色士風玩"Take Five"，
實在難頂，但他們卻玩得很過癮似的，有時候內地人的品味和審美方式真的難以理解。<<<<<<<<<< What is that? Is that written by you? Who used刻薄的用辭?

Ok, I Shut up! How about You?

首先，批評別人之前請說明你是誰，這是基本的禮貌，第二，我奏那首流行曲純為吸取經驗及賺錢，我不覺得它動聽，也不覺得這是讓古箏發揮其特色的領域，更不覺得自己奏得好，第三，請先聽一聽Herbie Hancock及Paul Desmond的Take Five版本然後再作比較，並請多了解爵士樂是什麼一回事，第四，我批評的不是技巧，而是音樂風格，請別混淆視聽，她們是音樂學院的畢業生，技藝絕不會差，我當然不能與之比肩，若我技藝不及她們便不能作出評論，也請你先收聲，第五，羨慕與否，與批評的內容並無直接關係，請就事實真相作討論，刻薄的用辭並不能加強歪理的真確性。

你批評12樂坊用4支二胡奏Take Five, 那你用古箏奏那些糟透的Canto-pop又如何評價自己?你的玩奏造藝一輩子也及不上殷焱等人吧!再練一輩吧!

Dear Mag,
我們上是特別班，要有足夠人數才開班的。下次上課時間是十一月二十五日晚七時半到九時許，但已是今期的最後一課了，之後是否再開班，何時開班仍是未知之數。因此，若想知道我們的動向，請於本月尾再次聯絡吧。我也好想有多一些朋友一起玩。

Kevin君，這是舊約聖經何西阿書第11章1-9節。大意是講上帝的「大愛」及「公義」。但你寫這段經文又沒加入自己的見解，到底所為何事呢？這裡可不是貼街招的地方。

Tuesday, October 14th 2003 - 09:55:08 AM

我原教導以法蓮行走，用膀臂抱著他們，他們卻不知道是我醫治他們。我用慈繩愛索牽引他們；我待他們如人放鬆牛的兩腮夾板，把糧食放在他們面前。他們必不歸回埃及地，亞述人卻要作他們的王，因他們不肯歸向我。刀劍必臨到他們的城邑，毀壞門閂，把人吞滅，都因他們隨從自己的計謀。我的民偏要背道離開我；眾先知雖然招呼他們歸向至上的主，卻無人尊崇主。以法蓮哪，我怎能捨棄你？以色列阿，我怎能棄絕你？我怎能使你如押瑪？怎能使你如洗扁？我回心轉意，我的憐愛大大發動。我必不發猛烈的怒氣，也不再毀滅以法蓮。因我是神，並非世人，是你們中間的聖者；我必不在怒中臨到你們。

其實我在那兒只讀過一年並不是在那兒畢業
我當時的家就在鐵樹街我升上小一時便跟著哥哥唸沙崙了當時我六歲應該是九一年比你遲很多相反我哥哥在那兒唸了四年書但他也不是在沙崙畢業的因為在我七歲他十一歲時我們便搬了家並且轉校
對於那兒的老師我只記得一個姓張的女老師在我離校的那一年她也離開沙崙了不記得是退休還是轉校聽聞她在沙崙已任教了十多年教的是數學和聖經

Yes, Jamie, I agree that we should read the Bible more carefully, not just taking it word by word. Sometimes it's annoying to hear people blaming the Bible in such silly manner, but it's equally ridiculous to hear people claiming the Bible to be "perfect" or "without flaw", coz there are so many places that are now considered to be either out-of-date or simply wrong. In simpler word, 輸打贏要並不光彩。 We should read the Bible as a whole, and accept it as a whole. Otherwise, I don't see any difference believing in the scriptures of other world religions coz they are all emphasizing love in some places or the other.

Thursday, September 25th 2003 - 11:46:31 PM

//Jamie

Your topics about ehtic and Christian believe (23/9)are very inspiring. Yup, it is difficult for us to understand certain "rules" given by God, especially in the Old Testament. And it seems that the God is so "unreasonable" and demand people to obey him strictly. However, if we think about the historical background and the life of people in those days and circumstances, it is not difficult to know about the reason why God gave those commands to people. (e.g. for question "c", obviously it's a matter of hygiene for that huge groups of Jews camping in the wild, right? ^^) And, actually the 4 Gospel and words from Paul have clear messages that Love is more important than rules, ethic or knowledge.

Dear Pig, 經搜索後，發現多間唱片公司均有推出Casals的Bach Suite錄音，以Naxos的最為便宜，可能是同一個錄音的不同remastered版本。不知那一個版本才是最好，但也不必深究吧。謝你的意見。
