110 品 举世闻名的莫斯科柴可夫斯基国家音乐学院始建于1866年，乃俄罗斯第二 所音乐学院；该国历史最悠久的音乐学院，系始建于1862年的圣彼得堡里姆斯 基-科萨科夫国家音乐学院。前者的著名校友不胜枚举，包括谢尔盖·拉赫玛尼诺 夫、阿拉姆·哈恰图良、大卫·奥伊斯特拉赫和姆斯蒂斯拉夫·罗斯特罗波维奇 等名家；后者则孕育出彼得·柴可夫斯基、谢尔盖·普罗科菲耶夫、德米特里·肖 斯塔科维奇和格里戈里·索科洛夫等泰斗。两大音乐学院向来旗鼓相当，各有忠 实支持者。 辛柯夫斯基在小提琴演奏领域屡获国际殊荣，成就斐然却毫不自满，继而 在莫斯科和克罗地亚萨格勒布大学音乐学院，先后接受假声男高音及指挥训 练。此外，他在多个巴洛克乐团的发展过程中，发挥了举足轻重的作用，如莫 斯科的 La Voce Strumentale 和 Pratum Integrum、圣彼得堡的 Musica Petropolitana 和阿姆斯特丹的 Il Complesso Barocco 等乐团。辛柯夫斯基犹 如新约中的寓言，每到之处必将播下巴洛克音乐的种子；他同时应付多个音乐项 目，其愿境与魄力却更像是硅谷的高新科技企业家。辛柯夫斯基究竟如何规划自 己的时间表，别人不得而知，但可以肯定的是，他绝对有资格成为励志演讲家， 分享其对企业时间管理的精辟见解。辛柯夫斯基是具有划时代意义的二十一世纪 音乐通才，必将青史留名。 Founded in 1866, the Moscow State Tchaikovsky Conservatory is Russia’s second oldest conservatory, predated only by the Saint Petersburg State Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory, founded in 1862. The former boasts Sergei Rachmaninoff, Aram Khachaturian, David Oistrakh and Mstislav Rostropovich among its lengthy list of illustrious alumni, whereas the latter Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Sergei Prokofiev, Dmitri Shostakovich and Grigory Sokolov. Having garnered numerous prizes worldwide as a violinist, Sinkovsky went on to undertake countertenor and conductor training in Moscow and at the University of Zagreb’s Academy of Music respectively. He has been instrumental in the development of various Baroque ensembles, such as La Voce Strumentale and Pratum Integrum in Moscow, Musica Petropolitana in Saint Petersburg and Il Complesso Barocco in Amsterdam. Akin to a New Testament parable, Sinkovsky sows the seeds of Baroque music everywhere he goes, yet shifting from project to project like a Silicon Valley entrepreneur. How he manages his schedule is a mystery: in case everything else failed, he could easily become a successful motivational speaker on time management.
