Reporter/Qiu yong-jia/Da Chen Daily/2004.6.30

 

 

On the coming July 4th there is a concert held by Winnie Hsin, who wants to give audience a refreshing impression.

 

Back to the past, the female diva received professional training from colleague on music, making her always held high expectation on music, say, singing perfectly in every tone. But in these couple of years, her way of singing has turned and stepped out from 'colleague-style'.

 

Was a piano teacher who required herself strictly, she commented with smile, 'As I'm getting older, has experienced more on living and knowing more great music, I want to back to natural.'  In the free time, she always listens to soundtrack of movies, especially the artistic and epic ones. It's a kind of fun on enjoying the music with thinking the story. Ella Fitzgerald is one of her favourite singers. 'She didn't receive professional training but she rather presents songs perfectly.'

 

The changed attitude on music makes Winnie controls her vocal and feelings efficiently. See how she back to natural on July 4th!

 

 

辛曉琪熟女唱腔    回歸自然

記者/邱永鍇/大成報/2004.6.30

 

辛曉琪工作兩頭燒,除了馬不停蹄的電視通告,還要為74日的小型演唱會準備,對音樂要求一向嚴謹的辛曉琪,這次卻一反常態,要以最自然的音樂表讓歌迷耳目一新。

 

從小接受「學院派」的訓練,讓辛曉琪對音樂的要求很高,之前對歌曲的詮釋也特別「用力」,但近年來唱腔卻有了轉變,跨出了學術教條下的框框。

 

辛曉琪笑說:「因為年紀大了,生活歷練也多了,加上接觸很多很棒的音樂,讓我越來越回歸自然。」從前老師的身分讓她對自己要求甚高,常讓自己唱得辛苦,不過從邁入「熟女」之列後,接觸的音樂範圍更廣泛,也讓她的唱腔有所改變。

 

談到常聽的音樂,辛曉琪首推電影配樂,尤其是藝術、史詩類型,如「新天堂樂園」、「辛德勒的名單」、「名揚四海」等,邊聽音樂邊回想劇情,也是一種樂趣。

 

辛曉琪對歌手的喜好,也偏向乾淨簡單的曲風及唱腔,尤其對女歌手Ella Fitzgerald更是佩服的五體投地,辛曉琪說:「她從沒受過正統音樂訓練,卻能將歌曲詮釋的相當完美。」也因為如此,讓辛曉琪漸漸脫離「學院派」,轉而走「自然派」取向。

 

音樂上的轉變,讓辛曉琪的唱功更加收放自如,也讓歌曲感情更加深刻,74日在Stage的演唱會,就要讓歌迷聽到回歸自然的辛曉琪。

畢業自文化大學音樂系的辛曉琪,出道前曾經教了11年的鋼琴。這次在八大「娛樂百分百」的安排下重執教鞭教音樂班的學生唱聲樂,還在學校裡巧遇大學同班同學,這才發現,原來這次代課居然是搶了同學的飯碗。

 

辛曉琪的同學黃老師說,以前辛曉琪成績好,天份又高,老師都很喜歡她。不過踏入演藝圈後,主修老師一度不諒解她跑去唱流行歌曲,還把她逐出師門。直到一次在同學會上見到有歌迷找辛曉琪簽名,才了解了她在國語歌壇的魅力及努力,而漸漸釋懷。

 

辛曉琪認為,聲樂應該可以更多元化,不限於難懂的古典音樂,所以能夠被辛曉琪教到,學生們都興奮得不得了。

The music video lasted for about 8-minute long and longer music video is another characteristic of director Zhou's work.

 

Winnie is the perfect woman in the heart of director Zhou. In order to turn Winnie to be different from her past images, he borrowed his favourite sofa for producing the music video. During filming, artificial rain suddenly poured down and Winnie had to continue 'singing' as the camera still rolling. The perfect outcome made the director smiled!

辛曉琪不再ㄍㄧㄥ,新歌MV「濕」身上陣,導演周格泰更是大方割愛,將中古世紀沙發陪著辛曉琪一起淋雨,為的就是呈現性感與完美的畫面。

 

周格泰MV風格是出了名的故事取勝,這次也不例外,並請來柯宇綸、張瀚及許安安飆戲,詮釋一段軍官、聾啞麵攤老闆以及女教師愛恨糾葛的故事,MV長度近8分鐘,也是周格泰一貫的長版作風。

 

辛曉琪原本以為MV的精采內容有3位專業演員一切搞定,怎料,導演卻不放過辛曉琪,他的理由是辛曉琪在他心目中是完美的女神,這次他要給這位女神不一樣的風貌,他還大方搬來從國外買進的古董沙發給女主角坐,正當辛曉琪深情的對嘴之際,一場突如其來的人造雨,淋得辛曉琪霎時變成落湯雞,但導演不停機,一旁要辛曉琪繼續發揮,拍出的效果,連導演都露出滿意的笑容連說讚!
