Triple Quartet 賴克 四重奏 總譜 博浩版

作曲家注：《三重四重奏》是為絃樂四重奏和兩個預先錄製的四重奏而作，或為三個不預先錄製的現場絃樂四重奏而作。樂曲分為快-慢-快三個樂章，以四個主和絃為和聲組織，分別位於相差一個小三度的小調中： E小調、G小調、降B小調、C#小調，然後回到E小調，形成一個迴圈。第一樂章將這一和聲迴圈進行了兩次，在四個主和絃上各有一個長約一分鐘的部分。這就形成了一種變奏形式。在節奏上，第一樂章由第二和第三四重奏演奏交錯的和絃，而第一四重奏則在第一小提琴和中提琴與第二小提琴和大提琴之間演奏較長的卡農旋律。慢板樂章採用了更完整的協奏曲式，12 個聲部最終都奏出了卡農式的慢長旋律。樂章始終保持 E 小調。第三樂章恢復了原來的快節奏，保持了和聲和絃的迴圈，但在調性之間來回調式的速度更快。樂章的最後部分使用了最初的 E 小調，樂曲最終在此定音"。史蒂夫-賴克，1999

原文簡介:
Note by the composer:Triple Quartet is for string quartet and two pre-recorded quartets, or three live string quartets with no pre-recording. The piece is in three movements, fast-slow-fast, and is organized harmonically on four dominant chords in minor keys a minor third apart: E minor, G minor, Bb minor, C# minor and then returning to E minor to form a cycle. The first movement goes through this harmonic cycle twice with a section about one minute long on each of the four dominat chords. The result is a kind of variation form. Rhythmically the first movement has the second and third quartet playing interlocking chords while the first quartet plays longer melodies in canon between the first violin and viola against the second violin and cello. The slow movement is more completely contrapuntal with a long slow melody in canon eventually in all 12 voices. It stays in E minor throughout. The third movement resumes the original fast tempo, maintains the harmonic chord cycle but modulates back and forth between keys more rapidly. The final section of the movement is in the initial key of E minor and there the piece finally cadences.” Steve Reich, 1999
