Praise We Great Men 布瑞頓

布裡頓為伊蒂絲-西特維爾的詩歌《讚美我們偉大的人》所作的改編，在他去世時尚未完成。這是為姆斯蒂斯拉夫-羅斯特波維奇（Mstislav Rostrpovich）寫的，以便他在 1977 年與華盛頓特區國家交響樂團合作的第一個音樂季中演奏。手稿在 118 小節後中斷，接近原定 10 個章節中第五個章節的末尾。因此，該片段最多相當於作品的一半，但卻完整地構成了作品。1985年，作曲家科林-馬修斯（Colin Matthews）在首次演出前對樂譜進行了修改，並在樂譜中加入了另外兩個小節的草圖

原文簡介:
Britten's setting of Edith Sitwell's poem 'Praise We Great Men', was left unfinished at his death. It was being written for Mstislav Rostrpovich to include in his first season with the National Symphony Orchestra of Washington D.C, in 1977. The mauscript breaks of after 118 bars, near the end of the fifth of an intended ten sections. The fragment therefore amounts to at most half the work, but it is fully composed. A further two bars were found sketched in one of Britten's notebooks and were added to this score in 1985, when it was revised by the composer, Colin Matthews, ahead of its first performance.
