| [#2979] Andsnes's Haydn Some old news for sharing. 明報 李歐梵 2004-10-09 剎那懷想•重拾經典 病態樂迷唱片經 在《我和電影的二三事》(張偉雄編)一書中我讀到一篇林超榮先生寫的妙文:〈病態影 迷重生記〉,內有一段話: 「病態影迷其中一個特徵,就是同一部電影,他們會收藏不同版本,一部《教父》,錄 影帶發明時,他們會買一套,到LD發明時,他們又買一套雷射碟。及至VCD發明了,他 們又買一套《教父》的VCD。然後DVD發明了,他們又買一套。」而且仍不知足,又買了 「導演版」、1區版、3區版、日版、港版,甚至翻版也找來互相比較考證一番。 我不夠資格做「病態影迷」,卻可勉強夠格做「病態樂迷」---我迷的是古典音樂唱 片。我心目中的「教父」是五、六十年代芝加哥交響樂團的指揮弗利茲•萊納 (FritzReiner),他在1954年為RCA公司錄製了李察斯特勞斯的兩首交響詩:《查拉圖斯 特拉如是說》和《英雄的一生》,我也是收藏了數種版本:33轉膠片版(兩種:一是五 四年版,一是六十年代版)、0.5膠片版、早期CD版、LD重錄的LivingStereo版、再重錄 的24KTGoldLD版,當然還有日本版。最近竟然又發現SACD式的超級版,我禁不住又買了 一張。總共投資至少也有一百美元!(據說此二曲的膠片版現在可以賣到四、五百美 元,可惜我早已送給了朋友。) 為什麼我對萊納指揮的這兩首樂曲情有獨鍾?除了演奏精湛之外,還有不少其他原因, 最主要的是我第一年到美國留學,就在芝加哥交響樂廳聽到萊納指揮的音樂會,這兩首 曲是他的「看家寶」,不知演奏了多少次。萊納個子不高,指揮時動作極小,但樂隊隊 員在他的指揮棒下個個精神抖擻,奏出無比壯觀雄偉的音色來,著名的芝加哥銅管樂 音---以法國銅號和長號的圓潤音色加上小喇叭的犀利強音---就是由此奠基的。那個年 代萊納旗下名將雲集,首席大提琴手就是鼎鼎大名的史塔克(JanosStarker)。整個樂團 在他訓練之下,展現出一種歐陸---特別是德國---的傳統。萊納自己是匈牙利人,也是 李察斯特勞斯的學徒,25歲時就擔任德萊斯頓歌劇院的首席指揮,斯特勞斯的九齣歌劇 都是在此首演。所以我一直覺得芝加哥樂團有一種「德萊斯頓」的樂音。 有的樂迷也是「發燒友」,我更是如此。此版最令人吃驚的是,在1954年「身歷聲」尚 未完全使用而正在試驗的階段,竟然可以錄製出如此驚人的音響。幕後英雄就是鼎鼎大 名的JohnPfeiffer,此公曾與數位音樂大師---如海菲滋、魯賓斯坦、孟釧M霍洛維 滋---合作過,去世時RCA特別為他製作兩張紀念專集的CD,把他早期的神奇錄音選了出 來,令我歎為聽止。 除了萊納的唱片之外,我最近又發現了克利夫蘭交響樂團由塞爾(GeorgeSzell)指揮的 舊唱片重新錄製的SACD,音響效果也奇佳。這些老唱片的真實錄音遠勝於當今各大公司 出品的「以假亂真」版。然而要聽這種超級CD唱片,需要買新的機器,唱片價格也較普 通的貴得多。 |

| [#2986] The Lark Ascending ~ R.V. Williams Hi Ginger, Vaughan Williams: Symphony No. 2 "London" / The Lark Ascending Royal Philharmonic Orchestra / André Previn / Barry Griffiths (violin) [1986] Telarc CD-80138: DDD 1987 Bought this 14 years ago. Sumptuous sound. Deeply satisfying music-making. However, my first choice of the "London Symphony" is Hallé Orchestra / London Symphony Orchestra / Sir John Barbirolli [1967] EMI (British Composers) CDM 5 65109 2: ADD 1994 |

| [#2990] The Lark Ascending ~ R.V. Williams Ralph Vaughan Williams The Lark Ascending During a long career that spanned the first half of the 20th century, Ralph Vaughan Williams sparked a new Renaissance of English music. In works ranging from symphonies and concerti to operas, ballets, and hymns, Vaughan Williams blended English folk song, hymnody, and Elizabethan music with themes inspired both by classical masters such as Bach and Handel and the impressionism of Ravel and Debussy. His work in transforming traditional sources into modern settings led the way for later British composers such as Benjamin Britten and William Walton. Born in Gloucestershire, Vaughan Williams studied both in England, at the Royal College of Music in London and at Trinity College in Cambridge, and with Max Bruch in Berlin and Maurice Ravel in Paris. A dedicated musicologist, he collected and catalogued over 800 English folk songs; this work led to his editing the new English Hymnal of 1906, to which he added several new hymns of his own. In compositions such as his Fantasia on a Theme of Thomas Tallis (1909) and his first symphony ("A Sea Symphony," 1910) he acknowledged his strong debt to historical sources. Yet modern events affected him as well, and his turbulent fourth symphony (1934) is generally considered to reflect his anguish at the growing turmoil during the period before the second World War. In general, his music often evokes both reverence for England's bucolic past and a modern meditiation upon its inevitable passing. In The Lark Ascending, Vaughan Williams found inspiration not only in English folk themes but in a poem by the English poet George Meredith (1828-1909). The composer included this portion of Meredith's poem on the flyleaf of the published work: 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. Vaughan Williams's orchestral romance offers an impressionistic image of the lark's song and the countryside, with "our valley" represented by two folk tunes. He completed an early version of the piece in 1914 for violinist Marie Hall, who consulted with him on revisions and first performed the work in a violin-piano arrangement in December 1920. The orchestral version premiered in London at a Queen's Hall concert in June, 1921. The formal structure of the piece is a straightforward ABA development, with each theme introduced and linked by the solo intervals. Yet within that structure, the violin solo is notable for its fluid writing and the organic way in which it emerges from and blends back into the orchestral texture throughout the piece. The work opens with a calm set of sustained chords from the strings and winds. The violin enters as the lark, with a series of ascending, repeated intervals and nimble, then elongated arpeggios. These rise into the first theme, and the orchestra quietly enters to accompany the solo in the development of this somewhat introspective, folk-like motif. The solo cadenza is reprised, then the woodwinds, led by flute and clarinet, announce the second theme, a folk dance. The full orchestra joins in, though Vaughan Williams always keeps the orchestration restrained, never forceful. At one point the soloist pauses in a trill while woodwinds play a series of bird-like calls themselves. Then the violin soars in cadenzas over the orchestra, an effect seen by some as representing the lark flying over the countryside. Another solo lark episode leads to the reprise of the original theme, finally stated by the full strings. The work comes to a quiet close, with the soloist returning to the original ascending, repeated intervals as the lark's song is, indeed, "lost on aerial rings."
