Night window 鋼琴三重奏 柏特-柏克版

夜窗 "三重奏由迪安-艾默生-迪安（Dean-Emmerson-Dean）委約創作，錄製前在布里斯班、悉尼和地區中心的一系列音樂會上首次演出。正如曲名所示，這部作品描寫的是夜幕降臨後的心境，我們生活中的這一時刻往往與脆弱、恐懼和不安全感聯繫在一起。三重奏以一對低音單簧管和中提琴的低沉快板開場，介紹了主要的動機和和聲素材。中央變奏樂章是一組夢境序列，或者更準確地說，是同一個夢境的不同版本，所有這些夢境都與本部分開頭的合唱有關。這些樂章從寧靜開始，經過越來越緊張和緊張的段落，最後成為一首充滿活力和激情的挽歌。在這些變奏曲的兩側，是兩個主題相關、節奏鮮明的快速樂段。與變奏曲形成鮮明對比的是，這兩段充滿了外向的、近乎爵士樂的特徵，暗示著夜晚也是運動和舞蹈的時刻"

原文簡介:
The trio Night Window was commissioned by Dean-Emmerson-Dean and first performed in a series of concerts in Brisbane, Sidney and regional centres immediately prior to recording. As the title suggests, this work deals with states of mind after dark, that proportion of our lives so often associated with vulnerability, fears and insecurities. The trio opens with a hushed pair of cadenzas for bass clarinet and viola, introducing the principal motivic and harmonic material. The central variation movement acts as a set of dream sequences, or more correctly different versions of the same dream, all being related to the chorale with which this section opens. They progress from serenity, through passages of increasing nervousness and tension, to an elegy that grows further in energy and passion. Forming a framework on either side of these variations are two thematically related, vigorously rhythmic fast sections. In stark contrast to the variations these are full of an extrovert, almost jazz-like character suggesting that night is also a time of movement and dance.
