Symphony: 'Vigil' Third Part of the Orchestral Triptych Triduum 麥克米倫．詹姆士 交響曲 管弦樂團 總譜 博浩版

交響曲：'守夜'（1997 年）是倫敦交響樂團委託創作的三部相互關聯的作品中的最後一部。這三部作品都與復活節的歷史事件和宗教儀式有關，即濯足節、耶穌受難日和復活節晚禱。交響曲的第一樂章 "光 "描繪了黑暗中的一線曙光。中央樂章 "吹響救贖的號角"（Tuba insonet salutaris）取材于復活節守夜時吟唱的 "讚美詩"（Exsultet）旋律，莫札特稱其可能是有史以來最優美的作品。最後一個樂章'水'以野蠻的方式開場，但隨著兩種相互衝突的主要素材的呈現而逐漸平息--狂野、狂喜的舞蹈，緊接著是緩慢、神秘的旋律，最後達到高潮，並以光亮、漂浮的方式結束"

原文簡介:
Symphony: ‘Vigil’ (1997) is the last of three interrelated works forming Triduum, commissioned by the London Symphony Orchestra, the other works being The World’s Ransoming, for cor anglais and orchestra, and the Cello Concerto (both 1996). All three relate to the historical events and religious liturgies of the Easter Triduum, namely Maundy Thursday, Good Friday and the Easter Vigil. The symphony’s first movement, ‘Light’, deals with the promise of a glimmer of light in the darkness. The central movement, ‘Tuba insonet salutaris’ (Sound the trumpet of salvation), is based on the Exsultet melody sung at the Easter Vigil, described by Mozart as probably the most beautiful ever written. The final movement, ‘Water’, opens savagely but subsides towards the presentation of two conflicting principal materials – a wild, ecstatic dance followed by a slower, more mysterious texture, leading to a climax and a luminous, floating close.
