艺人介绍

芮妮·弗莱明 (Renée Fleming，1959年2月14日－)，著名美籍女高音歌唱家，除了主唱歌剧外，偶也演唱爵士乐作品。她被认为是现时最顶尖的抒情女高音，而她的美声和美貌令她成为各大歌剧院和音乐厅争相邀请的歌剧唱家。

弗莱明的父母都是音乐老师。她出生于美国宾夕法尼亚州的印地安纳县并在纽约州的罗切斯特长大。她有一位兄弟及一个姊妹，都从事音乐学习。

弗莱明在年轻时喜爱流行音乐，并且十分钦佩琼尼·米歇尔的才华。除标准保留歌剧节目外，她还表演新音乐、百老汇歌舞剧以及其它流行风格音乐。

弗莱明曾在纽约州立大学Potsdam分校的克瑞音乐学院（Crane School of Music）就学。在该校学习时，她参加了一个校外的名为Alger's的爵士乐三重奏乐队进行演唱表演。该乐队的萨克斯手Illinois Jacquet邀请她一起进行他的大乐队（Big band）之旅，但是弗莱明选择前往伊士曼音乐学院继续她的研究生学习，并成为声乐老师Jan DeGaetani的学生。之后她又前往朱利亚德学院继续深造。在朱利亚德学院学习期间，她出演了一系列歌剧角色，如贾科莫·普契尼的《波希米亚人》中的Musetta以及Menotti的《Tamu-Tamu》里的妻子。

在歌剧的艺术天空下，美国女高音弗莱明绝对是当今闪耀的巨星之一，被誉为“当今最华丽抒情的莫扎特女高音”，她优美动人的嗓音和得体优雅的扮相让无数音乐爱好者为之倾倒。过往十多年，她叱咤欧洲与北美各大歌剧院，好评如潮。1988年在同一周内，连续赢得纽约大都会歌剧院国家比赛和乔治·伦敦歌唱大赛两项金奖。1995年她与Decca唱片公司签约为专属艺人后，弗莱明的声望攀上巅峰，不仅「音乐美国」杂志推崇她为「美国最美丽的声音」，还获得索尔第纪念奖、留声机唱片大奖、两次葛莱美奖…诸多荣耀。

芮妮·弗莱明是目前世界歌剧舞台上如日中天的人物。这位出生于美国的优秀抒情女高音拥有一副可塑性极强的好嗓音，能适应多种不同风格的作品和角色。近20年来，世界上涌现出一批歌唱技巧非常出色的女高音，芮妮·弗莱明是她们当中的佼佼者。但从全面的艺术素养来说，与卡拉斯、苔芭尔迪、萨瑟兰、普赖斯、卡巴耶、弗芮妮那一批大师尚有相当的距离。
