48-year-old
Bulgarian singer Smilyana Zaharieva knew she had a gift when she saw her
audience tremble or cry during her performances.
當她看到觀眾在自己歌唱演出時顫抖落淚，48歲的保加利亞歌手斯米爾亞娜‧澤哈瑞娃知道自己有天賦。
An official
Guinness world record confirmed that the she has one of the most powerful
voices on the planet, by achieving the loudest mezzo-soprano vocal note.
"When I saw the monitor reading 113.8 decibels, it surprised me."
金氏世界紀錄正式認證，她是全世界歌聲最有力量的人之一，因為她能以最大音量唱到次女高音的音階，「當我看到儀器測得113.8分貝時，嚇了一大跳。」
Irish teacher
Annalisa Flanagan holds the world’s loudest shouting record with 121 decibels,
but there was no previous singing record.
愛爾蘭教師安娜莉莎‧芙拉娜根能吼出121分貝，是全球吼叫最大聲的紀錄保持人，但之前一直沒有歌唱的相關紀錄。
Zaharieva had to
sing in a quiet studio and go over 110 dB and to hold the note for a minimum of
five seconds, with the sound meter placed 2.5 meters away from her.
澤哈瑞娃必須在安靜的錄音室唱到110分貝以上，且同一音高須維持至少5秒，分貝器也必須離她2.5公尺遠。
According to
popular noise level charts, Zaharieva’s achievement of 113.8 dB roughly amounts
to the same loudness at a rock concert, a symphony orchestra or an emergency
vehicle siren. "The Bulgarian folklore voice is characterized by its
power," says a choir master. (AFP)
