词条 | 横跨西伯利亚乐队 |
释义 | 乐队资料: 简写:TSO 组建地:美国纽约 风格:交响金属/前卫金属/古典音乐 组团时间:1996年 相关乐团:Savatage/Testament/Alex Skolnick Trio/Megadeth/Circle II Circle/Metal Church 所属唱片公司:Lava Records 简介: Trans-Siberian Orchestra是由Savatage的御用制作人Paul O'Neill所号召组成的side-project乐团,参与的乐手包含了Savatage的团员,如领导人物keyboard手Jon Oliva、吉他手Al Pitrelli、bass手John Middleton和鼓手Jeff Plate皆全部在籍,此外更邀集了多位纽约百老汇乐界的歌手、大型交响乐团和唱诗班,共同合作以实现Paul O'Neill长久以来的音乐梦想。 在音乐界已经20年的Paul O'Neill,最早时是在百老汇的剧场担当吉他手,到了80年代中期后,他陆续成为了Aerosmith、Badlines等乐团的制作人,之后,由於和Savatage合作愉快,更成为Savatage的专属制作人,并协助Savatage陆续完成了多张备受赞誉的金属歌剧作品,包括<Streets>、<Dead Winter Dead>等,由於Savatage的成功,使得Paul O'Neill的名气也随之水涨船高。 在纽约长大的Paul O'Neill,对於孩提时期时深深感动他的一些节庆事物,特别是耶诞节,始终难以忘怀,热爱撰写故事的Paul,对於纽约市在耶诞节时街道的美丽景致更是有难以言喻的情感,而这也正是他希望能藉由Trans-Siberian Orchestra这样的一个音乐project,来将这种节庆气氛以另一种新的风貌呈现出来的缘由。 其实从团名"Trans-Siberian Orchestra"(横越西伯利亚乐团)或许就能约略嗅出此project的音乐风格并非一般金属乐,而是以交响乐风为主轴的主题式摇滚乐剧,的确,以Paul O'Neill、Jon Oliva和另一位资深制作人Robert Kinkel三人为创作核心的TSO,采分工的合作模式,由Paul O'Neill包办专辑概念故事和歌词的编写,而Jon Oliva则发挥他的交响编曲及钢琴、键盘的弹奏能力,Robert Kindel也协助了部份创作与键盘弹奏。 如上所述,TSO的风格就是定位在抒情式的故事音乐,仅管没有什么金属味,不过Savatage式的美旋律特色依然贯穿其中,谱以大量的交响乐、键盘与钢琴演奏,众多的男女歌手轮流献唱,再配上大量的合唱表现,使得Savatage的优美概念得以用另一种更为轻松活泼的形式来呈现!或许可以想像一下,将<Dead Winter Dead>专辑中激烈的部份去除,而仅将柔美的部份保留下来,大致就是Trans-Siberian Orchestra的音乐走向了!(转自VC) ------------------------------------------------------------- 出了四张专辑,一张限量沃尔玛销售的EP: 1.Christmas Eve and Other Stories (1996) 曲目: 1.
