五年前，有幸得到丁羔老师的一堂声乐课，他的教学理念，他的为人，给我的鼓励和指导让我深受感动！后来他还为我选择了这首歌 The music of the night 作为练声曲。完全没有想到他会选择这首歌，神一样的作品，两个八度的音域，做梦都不敢想自己会去练这首歌更不要说唱下来了！但是他说目的并不在于要唱下来，而是练声。这话我信！优美的旋律，感人的歌词和故事让枯燥乏味的练声过程变得有了生气和情感。四年多来，过一阵子会练一下这首歌，调节情绪，检查练声成果。最近发现居然可以大体不差地唱下来了。正应了那句话，梦想还是要有的，万一实现了呢？
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation Darkness stirs and wakes imagination Silently the senses abandon their defenses
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender Turn your face away from the garish light of day Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light And listen to the music of the night
Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar! And you'll live as you've never lived before
Softly, deftly, music shall surround you Feel it, hear it closing in around you Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind In this darkness which you know you cannot fight The darkness of the music of the night
Let your mind start a journey to a strange new world Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before Let your soul take you where you long to be Only then can you belong to me
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write The power of the music of the night
You alone can make my song take flight Help me make the music of the night
