Chicago Remains 總譜 博浩版

這是一首向芝加哥市致敬的管弦樂曲，時長 16 分鐘，由 Serge Koussevitzky 基金會委託創作，是作曲家與芝加哥交響樂團合作駐場演出的一部分，於 2007 年首演。標題取材於 1871 年芝加哥大火摧毀了該市的大片土地，只剩下中心的幾座建築屹立不倒。這些遺跡與 19 世紀末和 20 世紀令人驚歎的摩天大樓建築結合在一起，展現了芝加哥不斷重塑的力量。這座現代大都市的堅韌壯麗和真實粗獷在特納吉的配樂中找到了相似之處"

原文簡介:
A 16-minute orchestral tribute to the city of Chicago commissioned by the Serge Koussevitzky Foundation as part of the composer’s residency with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and first performed in 2007. The title draws on the fact that the Great Chicago Fire of 1871 devastated large swathes of the city, leaving only a few buildings standing in the Centre. The combination of these relics alongside the stunning skyscraper architecture of the late 19th and 20th centuries is an illustration of Chicago’s ongoing powers of reinvention. The tough grandeur and true grit of this modern metropolis finds parallels in Turnage’s score.
