14、挂在墙上，每个人都可以观赏到。作曲家创作完了一曲作品，得由演奏者将其演 奏出来，其他人才能欣赏。因为作曲家完全地依赖于职业歌手和职业演奏者，所以职业歌手和职业演奏者 肩上的担子可不轻。一名学音乐的学生要想成为一名演奏者，需要经受长期而严格的训练，就像一名学医 的学生要成为一名医生一样。绝大多数的训练是技巧性的。音乐家们控制肌肉的熟练程度必须达到与运动 员或巴蕾舞演员相当的水平。歌手们每天都练习吊嗓子，因为如果不能有效地控制肌肉的话，他们的声带 将无法满足演唱时的要求。弦乐器的演奏者练习的则是在左手的手指上下滑动的同时，用右手前后拉动琴 弓一一这是两个截然不同的动作。歌手和乐器演奏者必须使所有的

15、音符完全协调。钢琴家们则不用操这份 心，因为每个音符都在那里等待着他们来弹了。给钢琴调音是调音师的职责。但调音师们也有他们的难处: 他们必须耐心地调敲击琴弦的音锤，不能让音锤发出的声音像是打击乐器发出的，而且交叠的音中每一个 音都必须要清晰。如何得到清晰的乐章是学生指挥们所面临的难题：他们必须学会了解音乐中的每一个音 及其发音之道。他们还必须致力于以热忱而又客观的权威去控制这些音符。除非是和音乐方面的知识和悟 性结合起来，否则单纯的技巧没有任何用处。艺术家之所以伟大，就在于他们对音乐语言驾轻就熟，他们 可以满怀喜悦地演奏出任何时代的作品。（二） The Music Within心灵深处的音乐生
