艺人介绍

女高音，1948年11月20日出生于美国阿肯色州史蒂芬斯，在亚斯本音乐学校师从托瑞尔(Jennie Tourel)，1969年到1972年进入纽约茱丽亚音乐院并以音乐学士毕业，期间曾参加过卡拉斯的大师班。1976年在旧金山歌剧院演出蒙台威尔第的《波碧亚的加冕》是她第一次踏上歌剧舞台，而两年后在柏林以《费加洛的婚礼》中饰演的苏珊娜获得个人的国际性成功，逐渐地韩翠克丝成为最耀眼的声乐名家之一。韩翠克丝不仅是当今最著名的三大黑人女高音之一，同时拥有“来自天堂的声音”的美誉。

1978年，卡拉扬在录制威尔第歌剧《唐卡洛》之时，其中有一个小段咏叹调是从天上传来的救赎声音，大师找到一位出道没多久的年轻女高音来演唱，由于卡拉扬的赏识，从此芭芭拉·韩翠克丝（Barbara Hendricks）便拥有「来自天堂的声音」的美誉，一直到现年将近五十岁的她，声音依旧如同是天上清音般吸引著世人。

出生于美国阿肯色州、有著娃娃脸的韩翠克丝不仅是当今最著名的三大黑人女高音之一，同时也可以说是世界顶尖的声乐名家。当然她不像芭托或是洁西·诺曼那样在舞台上光芒四射，但是她的艺术特质却更为不凡，就像她所得到的数学与化学学士一般，在韩翠克丝那清澄透彻的声音里，总是传达出理性思维与感性情绪的融合音质。一九七二年她又在纽约茱莉亚音乐学院以音乐学士毕业，一九七六年在旧金山歌剧院演出蒙台威尔第的《波碧亚的加冕》是她第一次踏上歌剧舞台，而两年后在柏林以《费加洛的婚礼》中的苏珊娜获得个人的国际性成功，逐渐地韩翠克丝成为当代最耀眼的声乐家之一。

韩翠克丝靠的便是极端纤细敏锐的音色，让她拥有最典型的抒情女高音风格，再加上那充满灵性的诠释手法与技巧，于是在歌剧领域当中，尤其是德奥曲目里像苏珊娜、帕蜜娜、苏菲（《玫瑰骑士》）等这类必须用声音来细腻刻画的角色，韩翠克丝的表现始终令人叹服不已。从她灌录的第一张录音（一九七五年由马捷尔指挥的盖希文歌剧《乞丐与荡妇》当中的克拉拉）开始，尽管她的戏码选择没有特别的焦点，却因为严谨与精致的演唱，即使是不同风格的歌剧演出也都鲜有失败之作。不过她在歌剧以外的音乐领域却更为亮眼，韩翠克丝为EMI灌录的黑人灵歌专辑就是一张值得珍藏的录音，而她的宗教音乐、艺术歌曲、爵士乐甚至通俗音乐等不同领域的成绩，几乎都是备受乐迷的好评。

而看看韩翠克丝所获得的推崇也是令人相当咋舌，包括一九八六年获得法国政府颁发的「艺术与文学统御者」的荣誉，她是有史以来最年轻的受奖者。一九八七年因为她的人道精神而成为联合国国际难民组织的亲善大使，在各大学也获得无数的荣誉博士学位，九三年她受邀在美国克林顿总统的就职典礼演唱等等，这些成就，不仅显示韩翠克丝是一位优异的声乐家，更展现她身为一位真正艺术家的风范。
