香港向来是传统的粤剧重镇,1949年之后,因为政治动荡,红伶戏班更多以港为基地,粤剧粤曲人材,新老结合,阵容鼎盛。很快,香港转型,粤曲粤乐跟着转型,它走的路,跟新兴的电声媒体,息息相关。

首先,部份粤剧团队艺人因为市场相对兴旺,加上拍电影容易带来收益,而表现因循,演艺停滞不前。

同样条件,却促使另一部份团队艺人,借助电台和电影的技术和平台,钻研粤剧演艺。他们刻意发掘新兴电声媒体的潜力,积极灌录唱片和制作电影,并因应这些媒体的特性,创造新的表演美艺,延续自三十年代已经开始的粤剧现代化改革。

黄湛森自幼多听粤曲、常看粤剧,在舞台、银幕和大气电波,透过红线女、马师曾、任白和唐涤生等人的倾情演出,亲身体会粤剧现代化的细艺和感动。

I Love those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells, OH
Those Holiday J-I-N-G-L-E Bells, OH
Those Happy J-I-N-G-L-E B-E double L-S
I Love those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells, OH
Jingle Bells, jingle bells jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Jingle Bells, jingle bells jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh
Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O’er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob-tail ring, making our spirits bright
What fun it is to ride and sing a sleighing song tonight

Jingle Bells, jing jingle bells jingle all the way
Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh

I Love those J-I-N-G-L-E Bells, OH
Those Holiday J-I-N-G-L-E Bells, OH
Those Happy J-I-N-G-L-E B-E double L-S
I Love those Jingle Bells, all the way
