无论你认识作曲家约翰·科里利亚诺(John Corigliano)与否,我都要告诉你,他的工作态度总是不慌不忙。还有一点,他很有智慧,往往在适当的时候懂得“放下”。他的第一交响曲于1991年夺得格文美尔(Grawemeyer)大奖以后,他等了足足10年,才创作第二交响曲——这就是后来赢得了普利策大奖的曲目。同年(即1991年),科里利亚诺为大都会歌剧院谱写了新歌剧《凡尔赛的幽灵》(The Ghosts of Versailles)并做了世界首演,这是继塞缪尔·巴伯(Samuel Barber)为庆祝大都会歌剧院于1966年进驻林肯中心而创作《安东尼与克娄巴特拉》 Whether you know the composer John Corigliano or not, I want to tell you that he’s always on the job. Another point, he is very intelligent, often at the appropriate time to understand “put down ”. After his first Symphony won the Grawemeyer Prize in 1991, he waited a decade for the creation of the second symphony - the track that later won the Pulitzer Prize. The same year (1991), Corigliano wrote a new opera “The Ghosts of Versailles” and made his world debut for the Metropolitan Opera, following Samuel Barber) “Anthony and Cleopatra” to celebrate the Metropolitan Opera in 1966 at Lincoln Center
