Two Mythical Scenes op. 1 薩利能 總譜 芬尼卡·蓋爾曼版

為管弦樂隊創作的《兩個神話場景》完成於 1956 年，當時薩利甯是阿拉爾-梅裡坎托作曲系第二學期的學生。在梅裡坎托教授方面施加了很大壓力之後，這部作品才得以首演，並最終在西貝柳斯學院交響樂團的音樂會上首演，由尤西-雅拉斯指揮。作曲家說，他的創作靈感來自芬蘭文學協會（SKS）1947 年出版的一本書《神話場景/圖像》（Myytillisiä kuvia）。作品的第二樂章 "Kalmanväen joulukirkko"（《亡靈的聖誕儀式》）取材於這樣一個故事：在耶誕節的清晨，亡靈從墳墓中復活，在一位死去的牧師的帶領下參加他們自己的特殊儀式。2020 年，薩利寧對樂譜進行了小幅修改。2020 年，薩利寧對樂譜進行了小幅修改，用他自己的話說，"只是做了很小的改動，幫助了年輕六十歲、經驗不足的自己"。修改主要涉及細微差別和動態、弓法和一些橋段。原來的結構、節奏和和聲世界仍與年輕的薩利寧 1956 年創作這部作品時一樣"

原文簡介:
Two Mythical Scenes for orchestra was completed in 1956, when Sallinen was Aarre Merikanto's composition student for his second term. The work received its premiere performance only after a good deal of pressure from Prof. Merikanto's side, and was finally premiered in a concert by the Sibelius Academy Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Jussi Jalas. The work received opus number 1, as it was the first publicly performed work by Sallinen.The composer has told that he was inspired by a 1947 book published by the Finnish Literary Society (SKS) Myytillisiä kuvia (Mythical Scenes/Images). The second movement of the work, Kalmanväen joulukirkko (The Christmas Service of the Dead) is based on the stories in which the dead rise from their graves early in the Christmas Day morning to attend their own special ceremony led by a dead priest. The opening movement Kulkue (Procession) depicts the dead in a procession towards the church.In 2020 Sallinen revised the score slightly. In his own words ”with very small changes helping the sixty years younger and less experienced self”. The revisions mostly concerned nuances and dynamics, bowings and some bridges. The original structure, rhythmic and harmonic world is still the same as they were when young Sallinen composed the work in 1956.
