唤醒

- 杨鸿记于2009年4月25日晨

2009年3月2日,多伦多作曲家、钢琴家William Lavigne给我来了封电邮,说他已完成了他的一张个人专辑CD的录制,希望用我拍摄的照片作CD的封面、封底。这张名为「Awakening」 的CD中所有的曲子,是由他本人创作并演奏的。 这位我从未相识的音乐家,是在我的摄影网站上看到我的照片,他说:“Your photography is beautiful and inspiring! The music is solo piano and very contemplative in nature. I think this photo would really be appropriate."被William Lavigne先生选中的两张照片,是在去年6月30日的清晨,我在安省Grundy Lake拍摄的。

自将照片的原件发给William后,我便一直期待着能早日聆听他的音乐。

我相信大多数设计人都是夜猫子,他们的创作灵感往往在深夜迸发。与他们不同,我是个实足的Early Bird,清晨才是我的高峰期。对我而言,背负着一天太多的繁忙,夜间的我好似分裂成多个我,多个我发出各自有着不同的声音,更多的象是别人的声音。于是乎很难将我追求的独特在这一时段创意出来。

我更喜爱清晨,早早的起身,一杯香浓的咖啡,几曲美妙的轻古典音乐,任100%的自我在这清静中自由的呼吸,创意也自然被唤醒。

4月21日,一张由William签名的CD,终于寄来了!

William的音乐真美!把我带回了那初夏湖边的清晨,湖水在凉凉的空气中蒸腾起雾......William钢琴倾泻着美妙的音符,是清晨的流水,在宁静中自由而从容不迫的张扬......
