《Opera Remixed》批判性地审视了歌剧的混合性,并探讨了打破传统古典演唱范式的机遇与挑战。书中对“流行歌剧”(popera)和音乐剧等跨界形式的论述,探索了歌剧演唱的另类途径,考察了根深蒂固的类型意识形态如何受到歌剧边界附近创意力量、实践和技术的挑战。
为了阐释这些动态,本书后半部分以TikTok上重新演绎的歌剧咏叹调为例,探讨了歌剧如何拥抱创新,并“混搭”自身以迎合当代观众。《歌剧混搭》最后批判了阻碍歌剧革新的精英主义传统,认为只有放弃对经典纯粹性的束缚,歌剧才能真正拥抱包容的未来。
Opera Remixed critically examines operatic hybridity and considers the opportunities and challenges of disrupting traditional paradigms of classical singing. Accounts of crossover forms like ‘popera’ and musical theatre explore alternative approaches to operatic vocality, examining how entrenched genre ideologies are challenged by creative agents, practices, and technologies at work near opera’s borders.
To illustrate these dynamics, the second half of the Element presents a case study of operatic arias reimagined for TikTok as one possible blueprint for how opera might embrace innovation and ‘remix’ itself for a contemporary audience. Opera Remixed concludes with a critique of the elitist traditions that hinder opera’s capacity for renewal, arguing that the art form will only be able to embrace a truly inclusive future by relinquishing constraints of canonical purity.
