from my daughter's church choir
刚去参加了小女儿苏珊的TRINITY教堂合唱会。
最后一首歌的旋律在脑子里不停(i wonder...why not...shine on me...)
以前听过多次教堂合唱,而今天并不是教堂的节目。
County 里今天九所小学联合活动,给周末添点气氛。
苏珊说练习了五个星期,唱诗班学生今天才凑在一起。
一下午的组合排练,傍晚就给家长展示。
当一百个十岁左右的孩子发同个音调的时候,那种和谐的美无法形容。
如果一个孩子声音在背景中还能让你听到杂音,当一百个这样的嗓音混叠一起时,所有的噪声,背景中或背景外的,都被一种谐音覆盖掉了。
你听到一种纯洁中的纯洁。
幕间我用手机写下感,想起这段假期时间追求的宁静,终于在一次为小女儿开车中兑现。
“追求一种完美时,常因达不到的境界而放弃;
有人却不懈努力,为创造或再现完美继续发掘。
即使很难坚持,艺术家
他们的眼睛和耳朵也没放过这样的瞬间。”
中文打字慢,我改写英文:
“…i've heard many versions of the gospel song named 'shine on me', but truly did i never believe that light related to me. i always think there're too much noises out there in a black and white background; but again the purity hit me; the purity of the voices those kids delivered moved my soul and body; they averaged out all chaos. i was touched. i just wanna thank, thank the purity of a pure tone that I will never forget.”
纪录了另两首歌的两段歌词:
“bubble gum in my hair
bubble gum in my hair
sticky, sticky everywhere
it's a mess
and i confess
i just don't know
who put it there
