艺人介绍

美国小提琴家,受业于吉戈德(Josef Gingold),1981年14岁就与费城管弦乐团合作演出,在科蒂斯音乐学院学习,毕业后与美国各大乐团合作协奏曲,也参加室内乐演出.其演奏追求音色的表达与细腻的层次显示,在室内乐方面似有更好的表现. 事迹 有个男人站在华盛顿的一个地铁站里拉小提琴。45分钟的时间里,他演奏了6支巴赫的曲子。这个时候正是上班高峰,人潮很多,但大多数人是在赶去上班的路上。四分钟后,小提琴家收到了他的第一笔小费:一位女士把钱扔进了琴盒,停都没停就继续走了。几分钟后,有个人靠在墙边听他拉琴,不过那个人看看表,又继续前进。很显然,他上班要迟到了。在45分钟内,只有7个人停住脚步并稍加停留。大约有20个人给了钱,但依然按照他们正常的速度继续前进。 他一共收到了32美元。 当他结束了演奏,周围恢复往日的平静,没有人注意到发生过的变化。 没有人喝彩,也没人发现身边的大师。 没有人知道,这个小提琴家是Joshua Bell,世界上最好的音乐家之一。他用一把价值350万美元的小提琴演奏了难度极高的系列乐曲。 他在地铁演奏之前两天,Joshua在波士顿一座剧场的演奏会的票全部售光,平均票价100美元。当褪去明星光环,仅以普通音乐人身份出现时,我们会注意到美么?我们会停下来欣赏么?我们会在一个未曾想象的场合里意识到天才的存在吗? 电影 提起Joshua Bell,最容易联想到的便是一部经典的电影《红色小提琴》。该影片中的小提琴演奏部分都是由Joshua录制成的。特别是影片中的一段精彩的Pop's concert(波普的音乐会)是由Joshua充当Pop的替身完成的拍摄。由于Joshua精湛的琴技,该影片获得了奥斯卡最佳原声音乐奖。 Joshua还参与了电影《天使与魔鬼》的背景音乐录制。2009年,Angels and Demons Original Motion Picture Soundtrack问世,由Hans Zimmer作曲,Joshua演奏。在我们欣赏电影的同时也能再一次领略到Joshua唯美的琴声。

Internationally known violinist Joshua Bell has performed with all the major orchestras and is proficient in the works of Beethoven, Lalo, Tchaikovsky and Wieniawski. He is known for both his contemporary and classical repertoire.

Joshua Bell was born in Indiana in 1967 and acquired an interest in playing the violin at an early age. By the age of 14 he had made his professional debut with the Philadelphia Orchestra. He studied under violinist Josef Gingold. After his debut performance his career took off. Although only a child when he first performed, his appearance was that of a serious, aspiring musician. In 1981 he won the Seventeen Magazine/ General Motors competition. From there he earned appearances with several orchestras including the Chicago Symphony, New York Philharmonic, Philharmonic Orchestra of London and the London Symphony Orchestra. He has performed under such renowned conductors as Charles Dutoit, James Levine, Franz Welser-Most, Vladimir Ashkenazy and Herbert Blomstedt.

During the 90s Joshua Bell signed an exclusive contract with Sony Classical. He recorded the works of George Gershwin with composer John Williams. On the album Listen to the Storyteller, he performs a violin solo in a work by Wynton Marsalis. His concert work, Chaconne, was written for him by composer John Corgliano, who also composed the music for the film The Red Violin. Joshua Bell's musical interests lie both with classical composers and living composers. In 1993 he performed a violin concerto by British composer Nicholas Maw and more recently a work titled Air by American composer Aaron Jay Kernis. Short Trip Home followed in 1999.

Most of Joshua Bell's time is devoted to concerts and recitals. During a season, he performs more than 100 concerts worldwide. He has played with the NHK Symphony in Tokyo, Orchestre National de France, the Danish Radio Orchestra and the Zurich Chamber Orchestra. Because of his flexibility in playing both classical and contemporary music, Joshua Bell has made quite a name for himself as a violinist. For two months in 1997 he performed with pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet in a tour beginning at Carnegie Hall. The tour consisted of chamber music and concertos. In his love for chamber music he organized an annual winter music festival in London. Performers have included Yefim Bronfman, Steven Isserlis and the Orion String Quartet.

Joshua Bell has been performing for more than 15 years. One of his most praised accomplishments is his cadenzas for violin concertos. He has written cadenzas for Brahms, Beethoven and Mozart. His musical genius has inspired him to create new works. Joshua Bell remains a prolific violinist. He has appeared on CBS This Morning, The Tonight Show and A&E's Biography. Joshua Bell, with a violin named "Tom Taylor," has become a household name among classical musicians.
