THE VIRTUAL CHOIR
虚拟合唱团
Imagine having the opportunity to sing together with hundreds of other people while you are at home alone. You can do this in a virtual choir. Virtual choir members record themselves while they perform alone on video. These videos are uploaded onto the Internet, and then they are put together into one video that you can see online—a virtual choir.Anyone can take part in a virtual choir from anywhere—all you need is a video camera and an Internet connection. You do not even need a studio. A virtual choirhelps connect ordinary people together. Many people do not have close friends or contacts who have the same interest in music. Many others do not have the chance to join a local choir. A virtual choir enables them to add their voices to those of other individuals and become part of the global community. It has proved to be a positive influence on the lives of many people. As one virtual choir member said, “Music helps me to ... forget my problems. Wit hmusic, I become someone else.”
想象一下你独自在家就有机会与数百人一起歌唱。你可以在虚拟合唱团中做到这一点。虚拟合唱团成员在单独录制视频的同时进行录制他们自己。这些视频被上传到网上，然后被整合成一个你可以在线观看的视频——一个虚拟合唱团。任何人从任何地方都可以参加虚拟合唱团——你所需要的只是一台摄像机和互联网连接。你甚至不需要录音棚。虚拟合唱团有助于将普通人联系在一起。许多人没有对音乐有相同兴趣的亲密朋友或联系人。许多其他人没有机会参加当地的合唱团。虚拟合唱团使他们能够将自己的声音加入到其他人的声音中，并成为全球社区的一部分。事实证明，这对许多人的生活产生了积极影响。正如一位虚拟合唱团成员所说：“音乐可以帮助我……忘记我的烦恼。在音乐的帮助下，我变成了另一个人。”
The virtual choir was the idea of award-winning composer and conductor Eric Whitacre. Born in the USA on 2 January 1970,Whitacre began studying music at the University of Nevada in 1988. He fell in love with Mozart’s classical music when he sang for the university choir. Moved by this music, he said, “It was like seeing color for the first time.” He graduated from university in 1995, and then received a master’s degree in musical composition from the Juilliard School in New York in 1997. Over the next 10 years,Whitacre’s original compositions began to become quite popular among choirs and singers. This led to the creation of the virtual choir.
虚拟合唱团是屡获殊荣的作曲家兼指挥家埃里克·惠塔克的创意。惠塔克于1970年1月2日出生在美国，1988年开始在内华达大学学习音乐。当他为大学合唱团唱歌时，他爱上了莫扎特的古典音乐。他被这段音乐打动了，他说：“那种(兴奋的)感觉就如同第一次看见色彩一样。”他于1995年大学毕业，随后于1997年获得纽约茱莉亚音乐学院音乐创作硕士学位。在接下来的十多年里，惠塔克的原创作品在合唱团和歌手中开始流行。这促使了虚拟合唱团的创建。
In 2009, Whitacre received a video of a girl who was singing one of his works. Inspired, he asked his fans to make videos, which he then joined together into one performance. His first virtual choir, “Lux Aurumque”, had 185 singers from 12 different countries. It has received millions of views on the Internet. Since then, the virtual choir has become a worldwide phenomenon.Whitacre’s next effort was the Virtual Youth Choir for UNICEF, which was firstseen on stage on 23 July 2014 in the UK. Altogether, 2,292 young people from 80 countries joined in to sing Whitacre’s song “What If”.
2009年，惠塔克收到了一个女孩在演唱他的作品的视频。受到启发，他让歌迷们制作视频，然后将视频合并到一个表演中。他的第一支虚拟合唱团《金色光芒》有来自12个不同国家的185位歌手。它在上收到数以万计的浏览量。从那时起，虚拟合唱团已成为一种全球现象。惠塔克的第二个壮举是打造联合国儿童基金会“虚拟青年合唱团”，该合唱团于2014年7月23日在英国首次亮相。总共有来自80个国家的2292名青年参与演唱惠塔克的歌曲《假如》。
The virtual choir is a wonderful way for people around the world to sing with one voice and thus make the world a better place.
虚拟合唱团是让全国各地的人用同一个声音唱歌，从而使整个世界变得更美好的绝妙方式。
Reading for Writing（P56）
Good morning, my name is Sarah Williams. It’s an honour to be here and to share with you the story of how music has had an impact on my life.
早上好，我叫莎拉·威廉姆斯。很荣幸来到这里与大家分享音乐是如何影响我的人生的。
Have you ever faced a time when things looked darkand you had no hope at all? Two years ago, I was told I had a serious disease which was difficult to cure. My body ached allthe time and thus I thought I didn’t have much longer to live. I wasvery afraid and I felt so alone and discouraged. Then one day, I had to go through a two-hour medical treatment. The doctor wanted me to relax, so he had me listen tosome music, and one of the songs was “Happy”. The song made me feel so much better that from then on I began to listen to music all the time. John A. Logan said, “Music is the medicine of the mind.”And it’s true. Music helped me recover.
你有没有过这样的经历：事物看起来一片漆黑，而你感到毫无希望？两年前，我得知我患了严重疾病，难以治愈。我的身体一直在疼痛，所以我以为我活不了多久了。我很害怕，我感到如此的孤独和沮丧。后来有一天，我不得不接受了两小时的治疗。医生让我放松，所以他让我听了一些音乐，其中一首歌是《快乐》。这首歌让我感觉好多了，从那时起，我开始一直听音乐。约翰·洛根说：“音乐是心灵的良药。”的确如此，音乐帮助我康复了。
Music gave me happiness. When I listened to music, it made my spirits fly like a kitein the wind. Music gave me strength and brought me relief. It was the rock I leant on to become strong and to get through those hard times. Moreover, music gave me hope and asense of satisfaction. It became my best friend. It spoke words of encouragement to the deepest part of my being.
音乐给了我幸福。当我听音乐时，我的精神像风中的风筝一样飞翔。音乐给了我力量，给我带来了解脱。它是我所依靠的岩石，它让我变得坚强，并度过了那些艰难的岁月。而且，音乐给了我希望和满足感。它成为了我最好的朋友。它让我的内心深受鼓舞。
Of course, I hope none of you have to go through thesame kind of suffering that I did. At the same time,we all go through various periods when we feel sad or alone. During those times, music can help you in the same way that it helped me. I hope all of you will somehow begin to treasure music and make it a part of your life.
当然，我希望大家都不要经历和我一样的痛苦。同时，我们都会经历各种悲伤或孤独的时期。在那些时候，音乐可以帮助你，就像它帮助我一样。我希望大家能以某种方式都能开始珍惜音乐，并让它融入到你们的生活。
Thank you!
谢谢！
