獻給戀人們的冬日旋律

冬日奇蹟,從她純淨如雪花般的美聲造訪大地開始! 16歲那年,「 純淨」專輯開始了我們與她的不解音緣,全球11國都打進流行榜前10名,輯中的曠世金曲『奇異恩典』更因為她的詮釋而再獲新生、永垂不朽。「純淨」不但寫下史上『唱片新人最快銷售紀錄』,更被英國金榜評定為『21世紀最暢銷的跨界專輯(the best selling classical album of the 21st Century) 』,連遠在亞洲的台灣及日本, 都雙雙寫下大破白金唱片的佳績。

隨著「櫻花戀曲 1」、「櫻花戀曲2」的熱賣,海莉的美聲更飄揚過海,在2009年7月台灣首度舉辦的世界運動會開幕典禮中大放異彩,不但讓原有的忠實歌迷驚嘆不己,更吸引了無數原先無緣認識她的台灣同胞;直到10月份,海莉與北市交合作於兩廳院舉辦的中秋節演唱會,更讓數千位錯失入場門票的樂迷,頂著颱風侵台的威脅,也要結伴至戶外廣場看完全程轉播仍不忍離去,台灣歌迷對海莉的支持可見一般!

就在2009冬日,她輕盈流轉、清亮中滲著絲柔般溫暖的純淨美聲,再次帶給我們渴望多時的平靜與幸福。在出道以來的首張主題專輯「魅力冬戀」裡,化身冬日的美聲精靈,藉著經典的聖誕旋律,傳遞佳音與恩福,讓冬日奇蹟降臨人間。嚴選曲目包括:永世傳唱的〈Silent Night〉、家喻戶曉的〈 Coventry Carol〉、精彩詠嘆的〈Corpus Christi Carol〉,更將流行味十足的〈Little Drummer Boy〉唱出了前所未有的聖潔莊嚴;創意挑戰Joni Mitchell的名曲〈River〉,更貢獻了自己創作的季節氛圍新曲 〈Peace Shall Come〉、〈All With You〉及〈Christmas Morning〉,邀樂迷一同見証她跨足創作歌手的成長。

在「魅力冬戀」專輯裡,海莉的聲音表現,有著空前的清亮遼闊,彷彿回到初次聽聞「純淨」當時的年少時空,讓人忘了她已經是22歲的國際巨星!海莉長年在全球巡迴演唱,直到每年年終才能返家團圓,她一直很想灌錄一張以冬日慶典為主題的大碟,也透過音樂跟歌迷相聚提前過節。對她而言,這些旋律就是陪著她一路走來的神奇支柱。回憶起兒時過節的心情,對照長大後的自己,更珍惜能與大家相聚的每一次機緣。這不只是一張愛樂者必賞的冬日專輯,更是一年一度海莉與全球歌迷們的幸福約定。

A magical collection of Christmas songs from the 22 year old singing phenomenon that is Hayley Westenra. Winter Magic combines some of the best loved and most familiar seasonal carols such as 'Silent Night' and 'Coventry Carol' with popular Christmas songs 'Little Drummer Boy' and 'Sleigh Ride', as well as tracks Hayley has written herself ( Peace Shall Come, All With You and Christmas Morning). The variety of the song choices perfectly showcases the versatility of Hayley's angelic voice and her ability to not only perform in a beautiful, classical way (Corpus Christi Carol) but also in a considerably more 'pop' style (Peace Shall Come). Hayley released her first album 'Pure' at the age of 16 and it was soon on the way to becoming the fastest-selling debut album from a classical artist, and reached the Top 10 of the pop charts in 11 countries. Her albums have sold more than four million copies worldwide to date. 'Pure' was certified by the official UK chart compilers as the best selling classical album of the 21st Century. True to form, Hayley has once again produced an irresistible record which is guaranteed to make everyone's Christmas that little bit more magical.
