BBC Learning English - Simon Rattle 西蒙·拉图

　　Yang Li: He said that the opera may be the saddest ever written.

　　Carol: The saddest. 最悲伤的.

　　Yang Li: But it is also one of the most beautiful and ravishing operas ever written.

　　Carol: Ravishing，引人入胜。拉图认为，《佩丽亚斯和梅里桑德》是最为美丽动人、引人入胜的歌剧，就好像精品电影 《窃听风暴》一样令人回味悠长。

　　Yang Li: To him this is a piece that moves with immense weight, drama and thoughtfulness.

　　Carol: 对于拉图来说，这部歌剧内容深刻、情节跌宕、思想丰富。

　　Yang Li: Rattle was born in Liverpool, and studied at Liverpool College. He learned the piano and violin, but his early work with orchestras was as a percussionist.

　　Carol: A percussionist, 打击乐手。

　　Yang Li: As a British conductor working with a German orchestra does he feel that he needs to approach music differently?

　　Carol: 虽然在德国乐团任职，但由于德国和英国都是欧洲国家，加上两国乐团的常备剧目都包括德国和奥地利历史上经典作家例如布鲁克纳、瓦格纳、勃拉姆斯和 贝多芬的作品，所以拉图并不觉得在德国当指挥比在英国更困难。

　　I think - this is all European repertoire. What is clear is that there is a very central repertoire of Bruckner, Wagner, Brahms, Beethoven, where it’s deep, deep inside their bodies and it’s then just simply easier to get what you want, rather than more difficult.
