心靈聖詠

NSO Kaleidoscopic France-Song of Soul

基本資料

一位大器晚成，在人生黃昏才成名的作曲家，其創作會是多麼誠懇動人？這就是法朗克。畢生安於工作與生活，篤信宗教，對作品要求完美，直到60多歲才發表扛鼎巨作D小調交響曲。此曲以「循環形式」譜成，由三個動機支配全局，在樂思流動變化中，道出人生的孤獨與幽暗，展望未來生活之美好。

1889年首演，觀眾呵欠連連；隔年再演竟大受歡迎，「人們終於了解我了！」法朗克如是說。無奈命運捉弄，一個月後他遭馬車撞傷過世，肯定還是來得太晚太遲。

《安魂曲》可說是佛瑞音樂藝術的極致：父親過世後動筆、母親於譜寫期間往生，最後，卻是在自己的喪禮中被演出，如同電影《送行者》扭轉世人對殯葬的看法，此曲散發出法國音樂特有的優美抒情，簡練、寧靜，沒有恐懼只有安慰，在聖潔詠唱中，讓死亡不再是末日審判，而是心靈的解放與安息。

 

“The conductor Shao-Chia Lu is a master of nuance – and an exceptionally gifted conductor.”-Suddeutsche Zeitung “…Lu’s musical watchfulness is terrier-like in its intensity. He pounces on the dramatic shifts in the score with a seemingly feverish energy. His sense of rhythm is exact and he knows how to signal unerringly each of the many small changes of pace in a thoroughly studied interpretation…he is, an deserves to be, the star of this evening.”-The Sydney Morning Herald Taiwan-born Shao-Chia Lu studied music in Taipei, later at the Indiana University in Bloomington, USA, and also at the College of Music Vienna.
