“这可以被称作是史诗级的融媒体作品,强烈的情感和毫不掩饰的情节充斥着整个银幕。”—华盛顿邮报
World renowned composer/conductor Tan Dun (谭盾) has had the honor of composing the music for three critcally acclaimed Martial Arts films: Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon/卧虎藏龙, Hero/英雄, and The Banquet/夜宴.
Combining the ancient tradition of Chinese martial arts philosophy with visual arts, the films were all received with high praise worldwide.
Each of these concertos, based on three great martial arts films, focus on themes of sacrifice, desire, and love through martial arts. Desire for transcendence, revenge, and power. Characters in each story must struggle with the question, “For what did you sacrifice your life, and why much your love be reborn?”
The cello in Crouching Tiger Concerto plays the voice of Lio who dreamt of spiritual transcendence through martial arts. Her dramatic journey of power, sacrifice and determination is heard through the concerto until her final Farewell brings her back to water and stone.
The violin of Hero Concerto tells the ancient story of Lin who sacrificed love to defend her country. She seeks, above all else, revenge and redemption for the people.
In The Banquet Concerto, the voice of Ano is represented by the piano. Ano, not a martial artist, or an assassin, but an Empress, sacrifices love in pursuit of power. The piano is heard along with the voices of her people in the chorus on her journey.
世界知名作曲家指挥家谭盾曾有幸为三部享誉世界的武侠片作曲:李安导演的《卧虎藏龙》,张艺谋导演的《英雄》和冯小刚导演的《夜宴》。这三部作品是中国传统武侠艺术哲学和视觉艺术的完美结合。
