周天

《礼献》

ZHOU TIAN

Gift

寻觅东方神韵的本源，华裔作曲家周天的《礼献》一开篇便揭示了一幕宏大的景象，其灵感源于南北朝诗人沈约的乐府诗《梁雅乐歌·献雅》。诗歌采用四言六句的格式，乐曲的主题则是一声仰天长啸，念出那诗中的“神宫肃肃”，音律的高低起伏为后续的起承转合打下基础。主题不断的循环往复，高音区与低音区频繁对答。此后，鼓乐升腾，在短促而重复的节奏中，献祭的供品被声浪缓缓托起，主题归来，悠远壮丽，好似一幅无边无际的美丽长卷，谱写着中华大地永恒的伟大诗篇。作品由上海交响乐团和音乐总监余隆在乐团建立140周年之际委约。

I consider Gift something of a homecoming. As I began a residency with the Shanghai Symphony, I wanted to create a reminder of the joy of music making, and along the way explore my own musical identity after 18 years of living abroad. The title, “Gift” (礼献), came from a poem titled “Music as a Gift of Decency” by Shen Yue from the Northern and Southern dynasties (ca. 400).    

The piece is shaped around a folky 4-note motif, which rises and falls against a large orchestral palette throughout its 9-minute duration. In a nutshell, this is my gift to fellow musicians.

Gift was commissioned by the Shanghai Symphony and Music Director Long Yu for the opening of the orchestra’s 140th concert season. The New York Philharmonic conducted by Long Yu gave the US premiere of the work on 28 January 2020 at David Geffen Hall at Lincoln Center, New York.

马克斯·布鲁赫

浪漫曲——为中提琴与管弦乐队而作

MAX BRUCH

Romance for Viola and Orchestra

对于很多专业的音乐学习者而言，马克斯·布鲁赫或许显得陌生。然而，当他们听到那首令人难以忘怀的第一小提琴协奏曲时，会再次翻开厚重的历史课本，寻找这位被淡忘的作曲家的名字。

马克斯·布鲁赫，19世纪末德国浪漫派晚期作曲家，曾著有200多首作品，代表作有G小调第一小提琴协奏曲，《苏格兰幻想曲》，为大提琴与管弦乐团而作的《晚祷》，以及多首合唱作品等。《F大调浪漫曲》是布鲁赫献给其挚爱乐器——中提琴的一封简短但真切的情书。弦乐的上行揭开序幕，中提琴的进入宛若破晓之光，照亮了世间一切冰冷与黑暗。惆怅的小调带来了远方恋人的思绪，而短促的停顿无法阻止音乐向前延伸的渴望，乐队再次奏出主题。乐曲中间，木管的加持使得中提琴展现出深邃与张力，此后，双簧管穿针引线，浪漫的主题重现。中提琴在不同调性上探索游走，最后在宁静中依依不舍的消逝而去。

Max Bruch was a German composer. He began learning music at an early age from his mother, who was a singer, started composing at the age of nine, and completed a septet for woodwinds and strings when he was only eleven. At the age of fourteen, he won the coveted Frankfurt Mozart-Stiftung Prize.

Bruch composed a number of choral works, both sacred and secular as well as an opera based on Goethe's Scherz, List und Rache at the age of twenty. His love for the human voice went hand in hand with a remarkable melodic gift, a talent that is also evident in his compositions for solo strings. Although his Violin Concerto No. 1 in G Minor is by far the most well-known, Bruch’s friendships with prominent violinists of the time — such as Joachim, Sarasate, and Willy Hess — inspired him to compose extensively for this instrument (he wrote ten concerted works for violin). Bruch was deeply influenced by Mendelssohn and Brahms, which shaped his compositional style throughout his career. This Romance in F Major for viola and orchestra, with its clear, flowing melodies expressed through the warm, rich sound of the viola, is a perfect encapsulation of German musical Romanticism.

The Romance follows a very traditional sonata form. The exposition presents two fully developed theme groups that form two distinct, contrasting sections. After the first theme group in F major, the second theme group appears suddenly and resolutely in A-flat Major. This section features wide leaps and faster moving notes, providing a clear contrast to the first theme group. During the final section of the exposition the melody alternates between the solo viola and the orchestra, finally ending in the traditional dominant key — C Major, completing a Brahmsian three-part tonal design.

The development focuses on the musical ideas from the first theme group, accompanied by the solo viola's restrained technical display. The music gradually approaches a climax with upward sweeping arpeggios, followed by two appearances of a Neapolitan sixth chord of G Minor. Finally, an augmented sixth chord moves the music smoothly to E-flat Major, where this section ends quietly.

A short passage derived from the first theme and a deft series of chords serve to prepare the recapitulation in the home key of F major. This takes the form of a shortened version of the exposition in which the first theme is accompanied by string pizzicati and the orchestration is brighter. The piece ends with a final recall of the opening theme that fades away to silence.

彼得·伊里奇·柴可夫斯基

洛可可主题变奏曲

PYOTR ILYICH TCHAIKOVSKY

Variations on a Rococo Theme

1876年底，在德国大提琴家威廉·菲茨哈根的帮助下，柴可夫斯基对大提琴有了更深的了解，并在前者的协助下创作了洛可可主题变奏曲，菲茨哈根也是此曲的被献者。柴可夫斯基深受莫扎特音乐风格的影响，试图将洛可可这一精致华美的风格镶嵌在大提琴那入木三分的音与音之间。

全曲的主题被标记为纯朴的中板，在圆号从容的引子后，大提琴朴实无华的主题奏出，弦乐轻柔的点缀迎来了木管勾勒的独特颜色，大提琴也在不经意间悄然步入第一变奏。循序渐进，轻重缓急，大提琴在不同的变奏中开启了一扇扇不同色彩与纹理的音响之门。C大调的第三变奏堪称柴可夫斯基最优美的旋律之一，而尾声则在D小调的片刻惆怅后横空出世，变奏中精彩的片段在此交融，大提琴在高低音区之间自由的穿梭，并在乐队的承托下将全曲推向辉煌的终点。

Tchaikovsky’s Variations on A Rococo Theme is scored for solo cello and a reduced orchestra consisting of pairs of woodwinds, two horns and strings. 

The Rococo style in question was a special ornamental style of architecture and art that began in France in the 1730s as a reaction against the more formal royal style. It combines asymmetry, soft curves, gilding, and pastel colors, emphasizing elegance over seriousness. Fashions of the time included large dresses in white and pastel colors painted with little flowers, and decorated by bowknots, flounces and laces. Some women also wore extravagant round hats. The analogous contemporary musical style was also light and elegant, delicate yet relaxed. An idealized version of the lost elegance of the 18th century was important for Tchaikovsky, whose favorite composer was, after all, Mozart.

Tchaikovsky’s work is based on an original “Rococo” melody that is developed over a series of variations organized around changing rhythmic patterns and contrasting tempos and moods. For instance, the first variation uses triplets to decorate main melodic line, while the second variation consists of rapid scales, which passed back and forth between the soloist and the orchestra. In the slow third and seventh variations the theme recedes further into the background, helping to set the stage for subsequent changes of mood. The cello cadenza in the fifth variation and the celebratory final variation both make extraordinary technical demands on the soloist. 

The first version of the work contained eight variations. However, after the premiere played by the composer’s friend Wilhelm Fitzenhagan, a German cellist and professor at the Moscow Conservatory, the soloist rearranged the variations and reduced their number to seven, making the piece easier to play but just as effective. This commonly performed version will be heard here. The duration of the entire piece is around 18 minutes, and the variations are performed without break. Although quite short compared to other cello concertos, it is rich in both virtuosity and emotional expression, making it a standard of the cello repertoire.

保罗·杜卡

《魔法师的学徒》

PAUL DUKAS

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice

那个老巫师已经消失了｜这一次已经消失了！｜被他召唤的灵魂，现在被放逐，｜我的命令很快就会服从。｜每一步和每一句话｜我知道他用过，｜精灵们服从｜我将展示我的艺术。

这是德国伟大诗人歌德的诗“魔法师的学徒”的首段。或许，恰恰是受到这学徒神秘艺术的指使全世界才拜倒在法国作曲家保罗·杜卡音乐的魔法棒之下。歌德的诗早于杜卡的作品一百年，在诗中，一位学徒偷听到了魔法师的咒语，于是在其离家之后，自行向一把扫帚施法。扫帚活了过来，开始帮助学徒挑水，可他只偷听到咒语的一半，只知开头不知解咒。顿时，停不下挑水的扫帚让家中洪水泛滥，学徒惊慌失措，直到魔法师返回，用一句“我烦人的精灵，忽视我的命令”平息了一切。

杜卡的手法是描述性的，交响诗《魔法师的学徒》与德彪西、施特劳斯的同类作品有着异曲同工之妙。作品开头速度的突然变化描绘了蹑手蹑脚的学徒，加上弱音器的小号奏出了碎片式的咒语。木管一顿一顿的好似刚挺起身子的扫帚，飘逸的弦乐犹如水与魔咒的交融。无形变有形，起初的水花演变成波涛汹涌声浪，在音量的最高点，铜管齐奏，魔法师回来了，一切又都回到了从前。

French composer Paul Abraham Dukas was intensely self-critical, burning most of the compositions that didn’t meet his exacting standards before his death. Dukas’s musical style bridged late romanticism and early 20th century Modernism, known in its French incarnation as impressionism. He was a formidable pedagogue, teaching many celebrated composers including Olivier Messiaen. While his earlier works are in a kind of academic 19th century style, he later fell under the influence of Debussy and Ravel, contributing to the same rich musical milieu. The Sorcerer’s Apprentice falls somewhere near the middle of this stylistic evolution. Among Dukas’s few surviving works, it is by far the most well-known: more well-known even than the composer himself. In particular, it is familiar from its appearance in Disney’s 1940 film, Fantasia. Dukas composed the piece in 1897, basing it on Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s celebrated poem Der Zauberlehrling. This narrative poem relates the story of an old sorcerer who leaves his apprentice to perform household duties and fill the bathtub with water. The young apprentice uses magic spells in which he is not well-trained to command a broom to life to help him carry buckets of water from the river to fill in the bathtub, but he does not know how to command the broom to stop, and the water begins to overflow and flood the house. He uses an axe to chop the broom in half, but it merely becomes two brooms working relentlessly at twice the speed. After all chaos, the old sorcerer finally returns home in time to restore order. The music hews to all of this with vivid faithfulness, making it obvious choice to adapt into a cartoon.

The piece begins with an introduction that introduces all the important thematic elements contained in the work. An atmospheric theme in the strings is followed by a second theme announced in the clarinet. This is the work’s principal theme representing the enchanted broom, and the listener is first given the chance to become familiar with it in this slower tempo. A brief switch to a faster tempo introduces the apprentice’s lively theme in the woodwinds. This is followed in turn by an imperious call in the trumpets whose appearance signals the arrival of the sorcerer on the musical stage. The onset of the main allegro starts the musical narrative on its way. The iconic magic broom theme is given to the bassoon, and the apprentice’s theme is presented by woodwinds and glockenspiel. The two themes confront each other over the course of an intense and increasingly chaotic development until the sorcerer’s theme is played by the brass to represent the apprentice’s attempt to stop the broom by chopping it. His efforts fail, and the music slowly regains tempo. The magic broom’s theme is restated by both bassoon and clarinet, representing the two brooms that were the result. An even more intense development of the broom theme and the apprentice’s theme is halted by another eruption of the sorcerer’s theme in the brass as he finally returns to put a stop to all the chaos. A short coda restates the atmospheric string theme from the introduction as well as a chastened fragment of the apprentice’s theme in a solo viola, after which a sudden four-note interruption brings the work to an abrupt conclusion.

阿拉姆·哈恰图良

慢板，选自《斯巴达克斯》第二组曲

ARAM KHACHATURIAN

Adagio from Spartacus Suite No. 2

古老的英雄传说，对自由炙热的渴望。《斯巴达克斯》是亚美尼亚作曲家哈恰图良创作的一部三幕芭蕾舞剧，叙述了色雷斯国王斯巴达克斯在罗马执政官克拉苏的压迫下，率领战俘们奋起抵抗并最终牺牲的史诗，作品于1954年荣获列宁奖章。

与很多同时代的作曲家一样，哈恰图良将舞剧中经典的桥段改写为管弦乐组曲。其中，慢板描绘了在成功挣脱罗马人的枷锁后，斯巴达克斯与弗里吉亚这两位恋人相待的温馨场景，为第二组曲揭开序幕。乐曲开端，弦音的轻柔宛如微弱的焰火，颤动的笛声与上行的大提琴引领着勇士寻觅恋人的踪迹，双簧管倾吐出远方异乡的咒语，不久，深邃醇厚的弦乐升腾而起，拨开重重迷雾，恋人终于重逢……

Spartacus is a three-act ballet by the Soviet Armenian composer Aram Khachaturian, telling the epic tale of the Thracian king Spartacus: an ancient hero’s legend of fervent yearning for freedom. Under the oppression of the Roman consul Crassus, Spartacus led his fellow captives in a courageous uprising, eventually sacrificing himself. The work was awarded the Lenin Prize in 1954.

Like many composers of his time, Khachaturian reworked iconic scenes from his ballets into orchestral suites. The Adagio of Spartacus and Phrygia from the second suite evokes a tender moment between the two lovers after they escape Roman captivity. The piece begins softly, with delicate string passages that flicker like gentle flames, while tremulous flute and ascending cello lines guide the warrior in search of his beloved. An oboe then weaves in distant, foreign incantations, and soon the profound, rich strings rise, parting the fog as the lovers are finally reunited.

尼古拉·里姆斯基-科萨科夫

《西班牙随想曲》

NIKOLAI RIMSKY-KORSAKOV

Capriccio espagnol

在诸多层面上，尼古拉·里姆斯基-科萨科夫都是俄罗斯音乐的中心人物。他是交响乐配器的大师，交响乐团在他的笔下变成了一个绚丽多彩的画板，其影响不仅局限于俄罗斯音乐中，更是遍及至全世界——保罗·杜卡、雷斯庇基、拉威尔、德彪西皆尊崇里姆斯基-科萨科夫为导师；而改变了20 世纪音乐格局的鬼才伊戈尔·斯特拉文斯基也曾是他在圣彼得堡音乐学院的弟子；交响组曲《天方夜谭》中所呈现的配器手法，更是对后世电影配乐的理念产生了深远影响。

孤傲潇洒的吉普赛舞者在喧嚷的人群中一跃而起，鲜艳夺目的裙摆使在场的人们都为之陶醉。在里姆斯基-科萨科夫的脑海里，这位舞者便是充满魔力的小提琴。《西班牙随想曲》起初的蓝图实则是一首小提琴与乐队的作品，可在大师的鬼斧神工下它变成了小提琴、单簧管、双簧管、长笛、圆号、小号尽情挥洒各自魅力的舞台。五个乐章一气呵成：乐队的欢腾支撑起单簧管与小提琴两位竞技的舞者，圆号随后奏出了西班牙古老的歌谣。狂欢依旧，直到小号明亮的宣告“吉普赛艺术家们”的到来，乐队中每件乐器各尽所能，演奏相似的旋律但塑造截然不同的形象，它们在广阔的音海中尽情的表现着触动人心的生命力！

After the success of Rimsky-Korsakov's two orchestral compositions with Russian folk song elements, Fantasia on Two Russian Themes and Little Russian Fantasia, he conceived the idea of writing a piece incorporating Spanish folk music— the Capriccio espagnol. This capriccio was initially intended to be a virtuoso violin fantasy on a Spanish theme, but it was completed in 1887 as a virtuoso orchestral composition instead. It was a tremendous success at its premiere in the autumn of 1887, directed by Rimsky-Korsakov himself. Along with Scheherazade and the Russian Easter Festival Overture, it one of Rimsky-Korsakov's most well-known orchestral compositions (otherwise, the composer’s output is dominated by opera). Its virtuosity and unique coloration set it apart among this trio of ubiquitous works, and various solo passages display a wide variety of instrumental timbres. Unlike Tchaikovsky, who actually wrote his Capriccio Italien in Italy, this piece, so rich in Spanish color, was composed entirely in Russia. Although Rimsky-Korsakov never actually experienced Spanish culture first hand, he acquired these musical elements in two ways. Foremost was the influence of Mikhail Glinka, a composer of the preceding generation who is often regarded as the founding figure of Russian classical music. Glinka traveled to Spain where he gathered materials and wrote several pieces inspired by Spanish folk music. Second, Rimsky-Korsakov possessed a collection of Spanish songs which may have been acquired during his three years of military service in the Russian Navy. 

The composer said, “To me even a folk theme has a programme of sorts,” and many of his orchestral compositions are highly programmatic. The Capriccio espagnol is cast in five consecutive sections, each of which has a title that sums up the tone and musical style of that particular section. The first movement, “Alborada,” opens with a festive dance-like passage followed by solos for clarinet and violin. The materials come from Asturian folk music used to celebrate the sunrise. The second movement “Variazioni” features another Asturian song. Interestingly, the folk song was written down with the instruction to “sing with a harsh and loud voice,” a far cry from Rimsky’s lyrical setting for horn quartet. The third movement “Alborada” marks a return to the music of the first movement, this time in B-flat Major instead of A Major. In addition, the clarinet and violin solo passages reverse roles. Throughout the fourth movement, “Scena e canto gitano” (Scene and Gypsy Song), the composer employs an Andalusian gypsy song. It is comprised of five cadenzas performed by the horn and trumpet, violin, flute, clarinet, and harp. These serve to highlight both the individual timbres of each solo instrument as well as their virtuoso characteristics. An ascending chromatic scale in the violins and woodwinds leads to the final movement, “Fandango asturiano”. This Fandango is a vigorous triple-time dance, after which the piece concludes with one last reappearance of the opening theme in the coda.
