本 站 宗 旨
传承古典，今世关怀
——音乐资讯中心建站宗旨
2000年，还是大一新生时的偶然机会，改变了我的人生走向。从旧书摊上掏来的一本50多年前英国音乐杂志上，发现了一篇皮埃尔·布列兹的采访录，那时的作曲家才刚开始指挥，并是扬言“要炸毁所有欧洲歌剧院”的先锋又激进人物。大师为了这句话，911之后还在草木皆兵的瑞士被当作恐怖分子被请到了警局。这是后话了。
这篇50多年前陈酿的采访录译文，刊登在了2001年春节后第一期《音乐爱好者》杂志上，那也是杂志重大改版后的第二期。感谢当时接见我的编辑部朱军先生，于爽小姐和樊愉执行主编，向我展现了一个普通爱乐者所能想象的全部。从此我的译文有规律地出现在《音乐爱好者》杂志，并先后刊登在《爱乐》《万科周刊》《新民晚报》《歌剧》等杂志报纸，还与专家们合译了一本书。我的热情，通过文章和译文，得以与读者分享。
看好互联网给大众传媒带来的便捷性，我于2000年1月在当时的“人人网”开办个人网页，取名为“古典音乐资讯网”。后因门户网站纷纷关闭免费主页功能，网页也漂泊至网易和亿唐。虽历经坎坷，但以与国际同步的及时资讯和密集的新闻背景报道在圈内小有名气。最终因搬迁精疲力竭，与陆骏先生的论坛于2002年4月合并，定名为“古典音乐沙龙”。
合并伊始的网站凭借强大技术力量和媒体攻势，迎来辉煌时刻。“沙龙”成为了当时上海广播交响乐团乐友俱乐部Hello
Friends的官方论坛，与电视台和广播电台的音乐节目均有密切来往，还应邀出席了大师云集的“首届中国现代音乐论坛”，我大概也成为了那届论坛里唯一的网络媒体和不识谱的乐迷。在那次论坛上，我认识了上海东方电视台音乐频道的谢力昕，胡建平，毕祎三位编导，结交了后来成为我良师益友的资深乐评人任海杰先生和当时《爱乐》主编刘雪枫先生，并和仰慕已久的台湾音乐人杨忠衡先生有了联系。三天的论坛使我大开眼界，获益匪浅，终生受用。
因深感国内国际古典音乐资讯严重匮乏，且消息来源渠道单一，时效性差和存档稀薄，我决定建立Klassikom音乐资讯中心，立足上海，面向全国，放眼世界，采集最新国际古典音乐资讯。我也为此专门斥巨资请来专业网络公司打造网站，力求能在技术上满足我对于网站长久以来希冀实现却又无能为力的设想。
Klassikom将延续“古典音乐资讯网”所有优良特征，以人性化设计为本，技术革新性为重。音乐资讯与国际保持一周内同步，特别新闻24小时同步，并会从我站档案库中调取所有背景报道。网站还开辟国内首创的完整版“音乐日历”功能，将古典音乐百年来的历史浓缩为每日大事纪。配合强大的搜索功能
，RSS同步和为符合译文混乱度身定做的人性化搜索条件设计，您能输入外文原文和拼音搜索文章关键字，检索400年来的任何大事纪，5年内的丰富文章和音乐信息。
希望在群策群力下，两年内将网站打拼为古典音乐的第一中文资讯站。

When a Passion Becomes a
Mission
Preface to Klassikom Music Info Service
It all started 5 years
ago. As an ambitious freshman at university and a long time classical
music devotee, I completed my first serious translation from English to
Chinese in the music arena: Boulez on Boulez originally carried more
than 50years ago on the renowned English journal Music and Musicians.
The translation, in turn, was appreciated by the editors of Music Lover
magazine in Shanghai and finally appeared on the February 2001
compilation, immediately after the Chinese New Year. (check the
Timeline for full list)
A gap of 50 years was
bridged mysteriously and a passion for music and opera was highlighted
by my series of translations published consecutively on Music Lover
till now and still will be. A doorway leading to musicianship was
opened suddenly. The past years since then witnessed my articles on
several other leading serious publications such like
Philharmonic of Beijing, Vanke Weekly of Shenzhen, Andante.com and also
popular medium like New People Evenings in Shanghai. A co-translated
book also published in 2004 under the title Classical Music by John
Stanley.
As the internet emerges
to be the main force of mass medium, I masterminded my first website in
its prototype hooked with a free web space provider in January 2000,
named Klassikom Music Info Service (KMIS), devoted entirely to
immediate global classical news release in Chinese, full coverage
report of news backgrounds and my previous contributions.
Although being forced constantly to be transferred to other free
provider due to hostile takeover with all the interruptions, it becomes
one of the leading Chinese music release sites in two years and
attracted cognoscenti and aficionados alike.
In April 2002, frustrated
by frequent relocation, I merged my site with Salon, originally an
online forum, later developed to what is now Classical Music Salon (www.gdyinyue.com).
That month saw the boost of the site since I was invited to the First
Contemporary Music Forum in China sponsored by the formerly Shanghai
Broadcasting Symphony Orchestra (now Shanghai Philharmonic Orchestra).
Yet due to negligence in management and lack of guideline, growing
disappointment and irritation compelled me to seriously think over
establishing a site of which I am in total control.
After several promising
but dreary attempts around the business world, I decided to quit my
former employment as chief representative in a USA company and embark
on my dream world. With the launch of Klassikom after all those
painstaking days and nights, a naïve and seemingly blind passion for
music ripens into a longstanding mission in its initial phase. A dream comes true ultimately: that to promote CLASSICAL MUSIC
in a way it used to and make people (so far for those who read Chinese)
believe it is still ALIVE.
Aeternitas
