Seraph 麥克米倫．詹姆士 總譜 博浩版

撒拉弗是天人或天使，傳統上通常與號角有關。麥克米倫的《塞拉夫》是為小號和絃樂創作的協奏曲，由三個短小、對比鮮明的樂章組成，是繼作曲家的《埃普列塞斯》（1993 年）之後，小號協奏曲的又一力作。Seraph》是獻給愛麗森-巴爾索姆的，她曾於 2011 年在倫敦威格莫爾音樂廳與蘇格蘭樂團首次演出這部作品。這次演出的錄音由 EMI Classics 收錄（50999 6 78590 2 3）。該作品雖然演奏難度較高，但並未使用擴展技巧，因此適合高水準學生和專業獨奏家演奏。在節目編排方面，這部作品是巴羅克和古典時期絃樂隊作品的完美襯托"

原文簡介:
A seraph is a celestial being or angel, usually and traditionally associated with trumpets. MacMillan’s Seraph is a concertino for trumpet and strings, in three short, contrasting movements, and a welcome addition to the instrument’s concerto repertoire, following the same composer’s Epiclesis (1993). Seraph is dedicated to Alison Balsom, who first performed the work in 2011 at Wigmore Hall, London, with the Scottish Ensemble. A recording of this performance is available on EMI Classics (50999 6 78590 2 3). Although challenging to play, the work does not use extended techniques; it is therefore suitable for advanced standard students and professional soloists alike. In programming terms the work provides the perfect foil to string orchestra pieces from the baroque and classical periods.
