布什指揮交響樂(lè) 慶英殖民地建立400周年
[ 2007-05-14 10:16 ]

昨天是母親節(jié),美國(guó)總統(tǒng)布什到訪美國(guó)弗吉尼亞州詹姆斯敦,紀(jì)念首個(gè)英國(guó)殖民地在該處建立400周年。他在當(dāng)天的紀(jì)念儀式上還展示了自己的指揮藝術(shù),指揮美國(guó)弗吉尼亞交響樂(lè)團(tuán)演奏了“星條旗永不落”。有聽眾說(shuō),感覺(jué)還是“美妙的”。

JoAnn Falletta was doing what a conductor should - concentrating on theorchestrain front of her. No wonder it took her a few seconds on Sunday to realize someone behind her was motioning for a try. President Bush.

"Smiling at me kind of devilishly," Falletta said.

She gave him herbatonand stepped aside.

Gesturing exuberantly, the president led the orchestra during part of its performance of "Stars and Stripes Forever."

"We didn't expect him to know the score so well," Falletta said afterward. "He was not shy about conducting at all. He conducted with a great deal of panache."

That was the music played for Bush's exit after his speech at a ceremony commemorating the founding 400 years ago of Jamestown, America's first permanent English settlement.

Just before the music ended, Bush turned to Falletta, who stood on a step below him, kissed the top of her head and left without saying a word.

The 400-strong orchestra was made up of about 50 members of the Virginia Symphony, plus musicians from youth orchestras around the country. The switch in conductors was impromptu, said Falletta, the symphony's music director.

"I think he may have just been seized by the desire to conduct the orchestra," she said.

Falletta did not spot Bush until alerted by a musician.

"I'm embarrassed now that I didn't notice him, but I was just thinking of the music," she said.

Bush stepped onto the podium and took over.

The musicians were impressed by how musical Bush was, Falletta said. "He was cueing the brass, he was cueing the percussion, he kept the tempo going," she said.

Bill Fearnside, a violinist with the Virginia Symphony, put down his instrument and picked up a camera to record the moment.

"It was a little shocking, but it was fun," Fearnside said.
