柴可夫斯基

For the famous "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy," Tchaikovsky chose a brand-new instrument the celesta for its unique sound.

在〈糖梅仙子之舞〉这首名曲里，柴可夫斯基选用了钢片琴这种全新的乐器，以取其独特的声音。

In the Nutcracker he used the celesta, a newly-invented instrument that gained popularity thanks to Tchaikovsky.

十九世纪之浪漫音乐有数位首席作曲家，柴可夫斯基为其中之一。

The year 1877 is an important one in the chronicle of Tschaikovsky's life.

在柴可夫斯基的生平年表里，1877年是非常重要的一年。

I'm especially fond of the Tchaikovsky Concerto, and your rendition of it was simply superb.

我特别喜欢柴可夫斯基的协奏曲，你把那支曲子演奏得好极了！

Mother and I are especially fond of the Tchaikovsky Concerto, and your rendition of it was simply superb.

妈妈和我特别喜欢柴可夫斯基的小协奏曲，您把那支曲子演奏得好极了！

I felt like a cross between a Tchaikovsky cygnet and a lipizzaner.

我感觉就像是夹在柴可夫斯基的小天鹅和利比扎马中间。

You can't take classical music lightly," he says."You're in much harder competition; it's a little hard to compete against Tchaikovsky and Grieg.

你不能小瞧古典音乐，他说到这确实是个艰难的比赛，和柴可夫斯基还有Grieg比起来是很难的。

The first performance of Tchaikovsky's The Nutcracker, in St Petersburg in 1892, was a flop.

1892荣获，柴可夫斯基的《胡桃夹子》在圣彼得堡的第一场演出是个大失败。

They would have done better to dance Balanchine's Tchaikovsky pas de deux, Balanchine being central to NYCB's repertory (and, for that matter, the piece being part of Hong Kong Ballet's repertory too).

如果他们演出巴兰钦的柴可夫斯基双人舞，本会表演得更好。巴兰钦的作品是纽约市芭蕾舞团的核心保留剧目（因此，也是香港芭蕾舞团的保留剧目之一）。

Once, just before his fourth birthday, we were walking through a shopping mall where piped music was being played. Peter stopped and declared loudly:'Mummy, this is Tchaikovsky, listen'. He was right - it was Swan Lake.

在他四岁以前，我们经过一家商场，这时音乐响了，PETE停下来清晰的说"妈咪，这是柴可夫斯基的曲子，听呀"他说对了，这是天鹅湖。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
