Wunderkammer(konzert) for thirteen players 協奏曲 總譜 朔特版

首三樂章作品反映了 16 至 18 世紀盛行的 "奇珍櫥"（wunderkammer）的特徵："在這個迷宮般的景觀中，我找到了構建我自己的音樂物品、密碼和語錄私人收藏的自然環境。作品中多變而精湛的質感是通過要求每位演奏者獨奏時的靈活性而創造出來的。在要求演奏者天衣無縫地配合以形成複雜的音樂表面的同時，還為他們設定了好鬥、尖銳和戲劇性的角色。事實證明，協奏曲的形式（kammerkonzert）為這種通過變形尋求解決的矛盾張力提供了一個天然的舞臺。(肯尼斯-赫斯凱斯）"

原文簡介:
This three-movement work reflects the character of the wunderkammer, or Cabinet of Curiosities, which flourished between the 16th to 18th centuries: ’in this labyrinthine landscape, I found a natural context to construct my own private collection of musical objects, ciphers, and quotations. The volatile and virtuosic textures of the work are created by demanding soloistic agility from each performer. Whilst being required to fit seamlessly together to form complex musical surfaces the musicians are also set belligerently strident and dramatic roles. The concerto form (kammerkonzert) proved a natural arena for such contradictory tensions that seek resolution through metamorphosis.’ (Kenneth Hesketh)
