Concerto for Orchestra Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta 巴爾托克 管弦協奏曲 弦樂擊樂器鋼片琴

管弦樂協奏曲》是作曲家的最後一部作品。1943年，庫塞維茨基音樂基金會為紀念傑出指揮家謝爾蓋-庫塞維茨基的妻子娜塔莉而委約創作，1944年12月由庫塞維茨基領導的波士頓交響樂團首演。這部作品展現了樂團不同聲部的精湛技藝，使用了質感和動態對比的手法，因此其標題也名副其實。巴托克自己曾寫道，這部作品從第一樂章的嚴厲逐漸過渡到第三樂章的死亡之歌，再到最後的生命重現。第二樂章通過在不同和聲音程中處理成對的樂器來改變這一進程，這是一個輕鬆愉快的間奏"

原文簡介:
The Concerto for Orchestra is among the composer's last works. It was commissioned by the Koussevitzky Music Foundation in 1943 in memory of the distinguished conductor Sergey Koussevitzky's wife, Nathalie, and received its first performance by the Boston Symphony Orchestra under Koussevitzky in December 1944. The work displays the virtuoso talents of different sections of the orchestra, using devices of textural and dynamic contrast, thus justifying its title. Bartok himself wrote of the gradual transition of the work from the severity of the first movement, to the third, with its song of death and to the finale with its reassertion of life. The second movement varies this progress by treating pairs of instruments in different harmonic intervals, a light-hearted interlude.
