[PLAY] 由助理艺术总监马库斯 • 舒杜普纳及假声男高音阿洛伊斯·穆勒巴 赫领衔的圣弗洛里安童声合唱团，在艺术总监弗朗茨 • 法恩伯格 教授的指挥下，假横溢现代感的深圳音乐厅举行音乐会，展现其 千年魅力与底蕴。 Conducted by Artistic Director Professor Franz Farnberger and fronted by his deputy Markus Stumpner as well as countertenor Alois Mühlbacher, the one and only St. Florian Boys’ Choir delivered a sublime performance at the futuristic Shenzhen Concert Hall. 圣 弗洛里安童声合唱团始创于1071年，乃当世最顶尖的童声合唱团之一。 合唱团所处之同名小镇圣弗洛里安，位于上奥地利州首府林茨以南十五公 里，即音乐之都维也纳与音乐圣地萨尔茨堡之间。多个世纪以来，合唱团一直以 雄伟瑰丽的圣弗洛里安修道院为家。自五世纪初起，圣弗洛里安修道院便恪守圣 奥思定教规，其在奥地利宗教史上的重要性，只有梅尔克、克洛斯特新堡和格特 维克等著名修道院能与之媲美。如此深厚的宗教历史底蕴，确实不同凡响。 小镇、修道院及合唱团均以圣弗洛里安命名，据说他曾是罗马帝国的政务 官，后于304年殉道。时值罗马皇帝戴克里先针对基督徒的大迫害时期，即帝国 史上最后一次也是最血腥的反基督教运动。时至313年，君士坦丁一世颁布米兰 敕令，奠定了基督教在罗马帝国内的合法地位。今天的圣弗洛里安修道院，由巴 洛克大师卡洛·卡罗尼与雅各布·普兰陶尔设计，其前身可追溯至圣弗洛里安殉 道后下葬之地。 F ounded in 1071, St. Florian Boys’ Choir is indubitably one of the foremost boys’ choirs in the world. Situated 15 kilometers south of Linz, equidistant from the musical powerhouses of Vienna and Salzburg, the magnificent St. Florian Monastery is rivalled only by its counterparts in Melk, Klosterneuburg andGöttweig. This time-honoredmonastery following the Rule of St. Augustine dating back to the early 5th century is the home of its namesake boys’ choir. Legend has it that Saint Florian, a Roman magistrate, was martyred for his faith in 304 during the Diocletianic Persecution, the last but largest of its kind before Constantine I finally legalized Christianity via the Edict of Milan in 313. The precursor of the St. Florian Monastery dated back to an early Christian burial ground of the martyr, whereas the baroque architecture was successively designed by Carlo Carlone and Jakob Prandtauer.
