Locke's Theatre for orchestra 管弦樂團 總譜 朔特版

Locke's Theatre》是一部由三個短樂章組成的管弦樂作品，以十七世紀英國作曲家馬修-洛克（Matthew Locke）為莎士比亞的《暴風雨》創作的附帶音樂為出發點。洛克特立獨行、大膽前衛的和聲與節奏語言被他的年輕朋友兼弟子亨利-珀塞爾（Henry Purcell）採用（有人可能會說是完善）。但是，我希望承認和模仿的正是洛克戲劇音樂的原始性和直接性。在我的作品的三個樂章中--分別名為 "第一樂章"、"鄉村音樂 "和 "謝幕音樂（伴有暴風雨）"--巴羅克風格的原作雖然常常被淹沒，但卻始終是一個朦朧的存在。洛克劇院》是奧爾德堡音樂節為紀念本傑明-布裡頓誕辰一百周年而委託創作的。里安-維格斯沃

原文簡介:
Locke’s Theatre, an orchestral work in three short movements, takes as its departure point incidental music written for Shakespeare’s The Tempest by the seventeenth-century English composer Matthew Locke. Aspects of Locke’s idiosyncratic and daringly advanced harmonic and rhythmic language were to be adopted (some might say perfected) by his younger friend and protégé Henry Purcell. But it is the very rawness and directness of Locke’s theatre music that I wished to acknowledge and emulate. In each of my work's three movements – entitled respectively ‘The First Music’, ‘Rustic Music’, and ‘Curtain Music (with Storm)’ – the baroque originals, though very often submerged, remain a constant, shadowy presence. Locke’s Theatre was commissioned by the Aldeburgh Festival to mark the centenary of Benjamin Britten’s birth. Ryan Wigglesworth
