Quartet In C Minor For Piano, Two Violins, Violoncello 西貝流士 鋼琴四重奏小調大提琴 芬尼卡·蓋爾曼版

1891 年春，西貝柳斯從求學的維也納給他未來的妻子艾諾-耶內費爾特（Aino Järnefelt）寄去了一封問候信。這首曲子以鋼琴主題和七首變奏曲的形式出現。不久後，他將這部作品改編成鋼琴四重奏，並加入了 C 大調的快板引子，因此這部作品有時也被稱為 C 大調四重奏。鋼琴四重奏同樣是一組變奏曲，這種形式在西貝柳斯的早期作品中並不多見，而引子則表明他在維也納逗留期間的音樂思想已經轉向管弦樂。除了 1891 年創作的幾首小品之外，這首四重奏是西貝柳斯早期以室內樂為主的生活中完成的最後一部作品，因為當時他幾乎花了整整一年的時間專注於《庫勒沃交響曲》"

原文簡介:
In spring 1891 Sibelius sent a greeting from Vienna, where he was studying, to his future wife, Aino Järnefelt. It took the form of a theme and seven variations for piano. Not long afterwards he arranged the work for piano quartet and added an Adagio introduction in C major, which is why it is sometimes known as the C major quartet. The piano quartet is likewise a set of variations, a form rare in Sibelius's early output, and the introduction already shows that his musical thinking had taken an orchestral turn during his stay in Vienna. Apart from a few minor pieces written in 1891, the quartet was the last work to be completed during the early period of his life dominated by chamber music, since he then spent almost an entire year concentrating on the Kullervo Symphony.
