Aston

澳大利亞人氣新晉古典樂(lè)隊(duì)Aston是六人組成的古典樂(lè)隊(duì)。其6名成員年齡都在二十三四歲，都是剛剛從澳大利亞最好的音樂(lè)學(xué)校：悉尼音樂(lè)學(xué)院畢業(yè)的學(xué)生。 　　ASTON的音樂(lè)風(fēng)格簡(jiǎn)單清新但又有種令人屏息的美：史無(wú)前例地向觀眾們呈現(xiàn)現(xiàn)代音樂(lè)的經(jīng)典之作。他們把當(dāng)代的熱門和經(jīng)典歌曲改編成古典音樂(lè)的形式；他們的改編曲目包括了最近的熱單，如Lady GaGa的"Telephone" 和Rihanna的"Rude boy"，也有經(jīng)典如Kylie’s "Confide In Me" 和 Coldplay的 "Viva La Vida"。雖然只是簡(jiǎn)單的選取了那些在音樂(lè)史上最受歡迎的歌曲，但是卻十分前衛(wèi)地重新改編，并由一群演藝精湛的古典青年音樂(lè)家們演奏。 　　2010對(duì)ASTON來(lái)說(shuō)是不平凡的一年。在簽約成為Seven's的樂(lè)團(tuán)后，他們的新作在 The Matty Johns Show 上取得了巨大的成功。樂(lè)團(tuán)成員之一Dan決定把他們演出 Telephone的錄像上傳到 Youtube上。 只過(guò)了兩個(gè)星期，上傳的視頻在網(wǎng)上積累點(diǎn)擊率七十萬(wàn)，同時(shí)被轉(zhuǎn)帖到Perez Hilton（佩雷斯·希爾頓（Perez Hilton）是美國(guó)著名的八卦天王，他的個(gè)人博客網(wǎng)站Perez Hilton，以好萊塢明星，樂(lè)壇歌星以及眾多名人的八卦新聞為主，各類八卦消息，上至頂級(jí)明星下至無(wú)名小輩都免不了被希爾頓尖刻且又熱辣的“圖文注解”娛樂(lè)于大眾的命運(yùn)。而這個(gè)八卦BLOG價(jià)值3200萬(wàn)美元。）的博客上。該視頻成為了2010年 點(diǎn)擊率最高的澳大利亞音樂(lè)視頻，也為樂(lè)團(tuán)贏得了一幫來(lái)自世界各地的粉絲。 　　開(kāi)始于幾個(gè)學(xué)生的編外計(jì)劃創(chuàng)造出了轟動(dòng)，也讓ASTON簽約到了澳大利亞華納音樂(lè)公司，錄制了他們的第一張專輯，現(xiàn)在正在準(zhǔn)備帶著他們獨(dú)特的現(xiàn)代—古典音樂(lè)巡演全澳大利亞和世界其他地方。 　　這也是ASTON下一步發(fā)展計(jì)劃，2011年對(duì)他們來(lái)說(shuō)將會(huì)是收獲頗豐的一年！
Aston’s musical vision is as simple as it is breathtakingly beautiful: to present modern classics like no one has ever heard them before.
They take contemporary hits and classics and re-arrange them into classical form. their arrangements include current hits such as Lady GaGa’s ‘Telephone’ and Rihanna’s ‘Rude Boy’, as well as classics such as Kylie’s ‘Confide In Me’ and Coldplays ‘Viva La Vida’. Quite simply some of the biggest and most loved songs in the history of pop and rock music, radically rearranged and delivered afresh by a virtuoso outfit of young classical musicians.
The six members of Aston, aged between 21 and 23, have come straight out of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music, the most distinguished music school in Australia.
Some members are not due to graduate until the end of the year, but they are all already professional young musicians of the highest calibre. 2010 has already been a huge year for Aston.
After being confirmed as the house band on Seven’s new ratings smash The Matty Johns Show, Dan from the band decided to put a recording of Telephone on youtube.
?
In just two weeks, the track had 700,000 views online, was blogged by the infamous Perez Hilton, became the most viewed australian music video of the year and earned the band a legion of fans from around the world.
What began as a side-project amongst a bunch of students created an instant buzz that’s led to ASTON being signed by Warner Music Australia, recording a debut album and now preparing to take their unique modern classical sound out to audiences across Australia and the rest of the world. With a debut album expected later this year, 2010 is expected to be a massive year for Aston.
