By the Forest Brook (Am Waldesbach), Op. 33 Flute Solo with Piano 長笛(含鋼琴伴奏)

保爾-韋茨格爾（PAUL WETZGER，1870-1937 年）是德國長笛作曲家，出生于盧貝克附近的達姆。幼年時，他曾向當地的音樂總監學習小提琴，後來改學長笛。15 歲時，韋茨格在達赫門的主教堂舉辦了他的第一場音樂會，並成為市管弦樂隊的第二長笛手。後來，他成為埃森市交響樂團的長笛獨奏家，並在埃森音樂學院任教。他創作了大量長笛作品和多部室內樂作品，還編輯了法國作曲家/長笛演奏家朱爾斯-德默塞曼的作品。韋茨格的《森林小溪邊》（Am Waldesbach）是長笛與樂隊或鋼琴的理想作品，是著名長笛演奏家馬塞爾-莫伊塞（Marcel Moyse）的得意之作，1935 年由他錄製在法國哥倫比亞唱片公司的唱片上。此後，這首曲子成為長笛教學曲目中的寵兒，其中最著名的可能是高橋敏夫著名的鈴木長笛教學法。南方音樂公司的這一版本忠實記錄了長笛界的傳奇人物詹姆斯-高威爵士演奏的這首經典曲目"

原文簡介:
PAUL WETZGER (1870-1937) was a German flutist composer born in Dahme, near Lübeck. At a young age, he took violin lessons from the local music director, later switching to flute. By 15 years of age, Wetzger had played his first concert in the main church of Dahmen and was second flutist of the municipal orchestra. He later became solo flutist with the municipal orchestra of Essen and taught at the Essen conservatory. He wrote numerous pieces for flute and several chamber music works, also editing works by the French composer/flutist, Jules Demersseman. Wetzger's “Am Waldesbach” (By the Forest Brook), ideally for flute and orchestra or piano, was a staple of celebrated flutist Marcel Moyse, recorded by him in 1935 on the French Columbia label. Since then, it has become a favorite in the flute teaching repertory, perhaps most notably included Toshio Takahashi's famous Suzuki Flute Method. This Southern Music edition faithfully captures this classic piece as performed by living legend of the flute, Sir James Galway.
