专辑简介
如果说音乐剧是雅俗共赏的音乐形式，那么歌剧则是阳春白雪。但这一部作品，应该属于哪种类型，有时确实让人迷惑。它优美的黑人民谣、蓝调、爵士乐，使它成为当代音乐剧的不朽佳作，但剧中壮丽的乐队及合唱队、代替对白的宣叙调，又使它象一部歌剧。而且确实它也常被称为美国第一部正宗的歌剧。
20世纪最具爵士色彩的现代作曲家格什温（George Gershwin）以"Porgy & Bess"（乞丐与荡妇，又名波吉与贝丝），这出黑人的爵士乐歌剧，赢得了"黑人音乐的林肯"之美誉。这部歌剧描述一对黑人青年男女Porgy（波吉）与Bess（贝丝）的爱情故事，以及追求自由解放的经历。格什温以爵士和蓝调音乐的风格谱入传统的舞台剧中，在整出剧中让我们看到二十年代美国南方黑人在贫困和现实的压迫下，如何寻找他们生命中的彩虹和希望。这出剧中多首主题曲，像是" I Love You Porgy(我爱你波吉)"，" Summertime(夏日时光)"， " I got plenty of nothing(我一无所有)"等曲后来都一再为爵士乐手所翻唱或诠释。
"Porgy & Bess"自1935年在New York首演以来，已成为爵士乐史上最经典的"变体"，因为它是第一出黑人的歌剧，也是爵士乐首度以歌剧的形式在剧院中演出。在格什温短促的38年人生中，所完成的作品就以这部歌剧“Porgy & Bess”达到顶峰。
