本篇論文以抒情輕女高音合適的曲目為出發點,並依照時代排序選擇了韓德爾、裴哥雷西、派西耶羅、莫札特、威爾第的歌劇選曲來做為研究目標;從創作背景與簡介開始,先讓讀者對歌劇劇情有基礎的認識,使讀者能了解角色的處境;再選出抒情輕女高音能掌握的曲目後,先將原文歌詞翻譯成中文,讓演唱者不單單只是唱出聲音、更是唱出劇情;最後就是筆者個人的詮釋,並經由主修老師駱女士不斷的教導使歌曲更為完整。筆者將自己習唱過程中的想法、與詮釋方式記下來,希望能為其他抒情女高音的歌者在準備演出時,提供些許參考價值。
This thesis, on the repertoire for the light lyric soprano, is based primarily on the selected works of famous arias by Handel, Pergolesi, Paisiello, Mozart and Verdi in chronological order. By offering the background information and a brief description of each composition, the readers will first obtain a basic understanding of the plot synopsis of each opera and the role the singer would play in the particular situation. The author then selects certain repertoire suitable especially for light lyric sopranos and translates the lyrics into Chinese so that the singers will not only perform these works musically, but will be able to express the emotions and thoughts accurately according to the plots. This section is then followed by the author's personal interpretation of the repertoire, informed by the thoughtful guidance from the author's voice teacher, Mrs. Lo. Included are also the author's personal thoughts and approach to interpretation during the process of learning these arias. Numerous revisions have been made to try to present this thesis in the best possible way. It is my sincere hope that my fellow light lyric sopranos will find this thesis a helpful reference in their preparation for performance of these works.
