樂器:Concert Band/Wind Orchestra

商品描述:
Praeludium takes the musician and the listener on a tonal journey using multiple key changes throughout the music. Beginning with B-Flat Major and using counter-melody to create the thematic material, the music quickly progresses from one key change to another, requiring performers to demonstrate good intonation skills as they develop the melodic and harmonic texture of the opening measures, until the lyrical journey has taken them far from the opening key. Yet, as the music brings us to its final key change, the musician turns to discover that the music has faithfully and assuredly returned them back to the key in which it began. A technique not so commonly used for wind ensembles after the post-Romantic period.
Praeludium全曲採用多種調性變化，將音樂家和聽眾帶入音調之旅。 樂曲以降壓大調開始，使用對位元旋律創造主題素材，音樂迅速從一個調性轉換到另一個調性，要求演奏者在發展開頭樂段的旋律與和聲質地時展現良好的音準技巧，直到抒情之旅遠離開頭的調性。 然而，當音樂進入最後一個調性變化時，演奏者轉過身來發現，音樂已忠實而可靠地將他們帶回了開始時的調性。 這種技巧在後浪漫主義時期之後的管樂合奏中並不常用。
