今天来听皮亚佐拉The Four Seasons of Buenos Aires中的春,写于1970年~皮亚佐拉的四季其实是先写了Summer,然后是Winter,之后才写了Autumn和Spring并被组合在一起,一般的演奏顺序为Winter, Summer, Autumn, Spring。这套作品受到了Vivaldi四季的影响,一是当时正值Vivaldi的四季再次流行,二是每个season都遵循了fast-slow-fast的结构,和Vivaldi的每个乐章相同,三是里面含有一些Vivaldi的motif,但是由于阿根廷位于南半球,季节和北半球相反,所以motif也是“反”着用的(比如皮亚佐拉的Summer里有Vivaldi的Winter元素)~

今天分享皮亚佐拉和他的Quintet的版本~这首作品后来还被改编成了solo violin + string orchestra(见ref):

大家周五愉快~今天分享美国作曲家Aaron Copland的著名作品Appalachian Spring,分享他指挥的版本~这部作品最初是芭蕾音乐,舞蹈家Martha Graham的一个commission,后来被rearrange成Orchestral suite。其中最著名的一个旋律来自Shakers(全称是United Society of Believers in Christ's Second Appearing)的一首歌,原名叫Simple Gifts~(具体位置请点这里:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xxd1cmenki8&t=1117s)

很有意思的是这首曲子在创作的时候并没有名字,Copland就叫它Ballet for Martha~Appalachian Spring的名字是Martha后来取的,来源自Hart Crane的一首诗:
O Appalachian Spring! I gained the ledge;
Steep, inaccessible smile that eastward bends
And northward reaches in that violet wedge
Of Adirondacks!

所以作曲家在写作的时候并没有想Appalachian,也没有想spring(诗中的spring还是泉水的意思,并不是春天的意思😂),但是几乎每个听到这首曲子的人都觉得置身于阿巴拉契亚山脉的春天之中~万物复苏,草长莺飞~

今天分享一首Symphony,Schumann的Symphony No.1 “Spring”~与昨天那首阴差阳错感觉像春天很不同,Schumann在写作这首作品的时候脑中是有春天的图景的,本来四个movement被分别冠以了“The Beginning of Spring” “Evening” “Merry Playmates” 和 “Spring in Full Bloom”的标题,虽然最后在出版时被删去,他还曾在一封信中写道:
"Could you breathe a little of the longing for spring into your orchestra as they play? That was what was most in my mind when I wrote [the symphony] in January 1841. I should like the very first trumpet entrance to sound as if it came from on high, like a summons to awakening. Further on in the introduction, I would like the music to suggest the world’s turning green, perhaps with a butterfly hovering in the air, and then, in the Allegro, to show how everything to do with spring is coming alive... These, however, are ideas that came into my mind only after I had completed the piece."

(感谢Ching兄今天的输入!)今天分享一首有点布尔乔亚情调的安可小品"En avril,à Paris",(在四月,在巴黎) 这是钢琴大师Weissenberg改编的Trenet 六首歌中的一首,细腻的和声中充满了法式的沙龙情调,曼妙的旋律,灵动的舞姿,把我们带回到了上个世纪的巴黎街头,仿佛让我们身临其境一段跨越时间的感情。不知那是淡淡的如同before sunrise 的约定? 还是浓浓的love me if you dare 的挣扎? 请各位朋友欣赏。

我们今天选择的版本是钢琴家Hamelin在一场live 音乐会中演奏的。Hameline的炫技技术是举世皆知的,对于超炫技的作品,他几乎从来都不拒绝,比如Godowsky的肖邦练习曲的改编曲。而在这次演奏中,我们可以看到他更加丰富而多样的技术控制力,多变的音色,跌宕的分句。既有着开合的张力,又有着克制的调度,比如大家可以听他1:22秒对踏板和触键地精妙处理。

今天夹带个私货,分享一首非传统古典——4月14日的必备BGM:Aphex Twin的Avril 14th😜Aphex Twin其实主要是做电子乐的,不过很喜欢这首很短的钢琴曲的色彩,像淅淅沥沥的春雨。

今天分享德彪西的Printemps (春天)~Printemps是他的一首早期作品,写于1885年,是首次和"Impressionism"联系起来的一部作品(不过当时是负面评价,ref 1)。

Printemps本是为交响乐团和无词合唱团写作,可惜原稿现已丢失。我们现在听到的两乐章symphonic suite是由Henri Büsser在1912年在Debussy的指导下,从遗留下来的合唱团和钢琴reduction版本重新为交响乐团编排的 (ref 2)。

p.s. 这不是Debussy唯一一部和春天有关的作品(ref 3),他还有Rondes de printemps (是Images pour orchestre中的一个movement)和Salut Printemps~

大家早上好~最近鸟叫声也多起来了,我这边早上可以听到海鸥和鸽子的叫声~今天分享一首估计大家都耳熟能详的Ralph Vaughan Williams的Lark Ascending,每次听都觉得在宽广的湖面上遨游~~这首作品inspired by George Meredith的同名诗作,在乐谱的开头,Vaughan Williams抄了其中的12句:
He rises and begins to round,
He drops the silver chain of sound,
Of many links without a break,
In chirrup, whistle, slur and shake.

For singing till his heaven fills,
'Tis love of earth that he instils,
And ever winging up and up,
Our valley is his golden cup
And he the wine which overflows
to lift us with him as he goes.

Till lost on his aerial rings
In light, and then the fancy sings.

本魔法师准备在鸟叫声的道路上一路远去🦜lol今天分享“古典音乐界鸟类大师”梅西安的一首作品Oiseaux exotiques(Exotic Birds)~梅西安大约在50岁的时候开始创作很多birdsong,和常见的只是在作品中有对鸟叫的模仿(比如昨天我们听的Lark Ascending)完全不同,梅西安是直接将真实的鸟叫声记谱,再将他们融入在现代作曲中。和很多音乐家会去各处采集folk song一样,梅西安到各地采集鸟类的叫声。

这首Oiseaux exotiques中记录了18种来自印度,中国,马来西亚和美洲的鸟类,是无法在大自然中听到的鸟类组合~不过梅西安并没有去过这些地方,这首作品鸟叫声是从录音中transcribe出来的~

今天分享Respighi的Pines of Rome~其实和春天没太大关系,这是一首描绘罗马松树的四乐章symphony poem,唯一的联系是……鸟叫啊哈哈(感觉要被打了😂)这首作品是第一个使用了electronic sounds的交响作品,而electronic sounds就是一段录下来的夜莺的歌声,出现在第三乐章的末尾(大概6:00的位置)
