Quartet 賴克 四重奏 總譜 博浩版

作曲家注：'四重奏'，在音樂會中被提及時，通常被認為是指'絃樂四重奏'。而在我的作品中，除了絃樂四重奏之外，在我的許多作品中發揮核心作用的四重奏是由兩架鋼琴和兩件打擊樂器組成的。在《沙漠音樂》、《六重奏》、《三樂章》、《四部曲》、《洞穴》、《舞曲》、《三個故事》、《你是（變奏曲）》、《振動變奏曲》、《鋼琴與弦樂》、《丹尼爾變奏曲》、《雙六重奏》和《無線電重寫》中，它都是這樣出現的，或者以更多鋼琴或更多打擊樂的擴展形式出現。在四重奏中，只有這一組：兩支顫音琴和兩架鋼琴。這首曲子是我創作過的較為複雜的作品之一，它經常變換調性，也經常中斷連續性以暫停或使用新的素材。雖然各部分難度不大，但卻需要高水準的合奏技巧。樂曲的形式在歷史上並不陌生：快、慢、快，沒有停頓。慢板引入了我的音樂中通常沒有的和聲"

原文簡介:
Composer's note:'Quartet', when mentioned in the context of concert music, is generally assumed to mean 'string quartet'. In my case, the quartet hat has played a central role in many of my pieces (besides the string quartet) is that of two pianos and two percussion. It appears like that, or in expanded form with more pianos or more percussion, in The Desert Music, Sextet, Three Movements, The Four Sections, The Cave, Dance Patterns, Three Tales, You Are (Variations), Variations for Vibes, Pianos and Strings, Daniel Variations, Double Sextet, and Radio Rewrite . In Quartet, there is just this group alone: two vibes and two pianos.The piece is one of the more complex I have composed. It frequently changes key and often breaks off continuity to pause or take up new material. Though the parts are not unduly difficult, it calls for a high level of ensemble virtuosity.The form is one familiar throughout history: fast, slow, fast, played without pause. The slow movement introduces harmonies not usually found in my music.
