Regina Caeli RV 615 - Antiphon for Trumpet, Strings and Low Brass Critical Edition Score 韋瓦第 弦樂器 銅管樂器 弦樂

在維瓦爾第曾經擁有的手稿中，這首《聖母頌》的樂譜以親筆簽名形式留存，如今保存在都靈國立大學圖書館。很明顯，它原本是一首四樂章的作品，可能創作於 1726 年，是為威尼斯的 Ospedale della Pietà 演奏的，但開頭的兩個樂章已經遺失，而這兩個樂章肯定是在一個或多個獨立的集會上演奏的。在這種情況下，重建完整的作品是不值得的，因此該版本以片段的形式呈現。該作品的聲部由維瓦爾第用男高音譜號記譜，在聖母教堂中，一些女歌手使用了這一譜號，用今天的話來說，這些女歌手可被歸類為 "低（或第二）次中音"。該樂譜的特別之處在於其中兩個名為 "Trombe "的部分，幾乎可以肯定這兩個部分不是為銅管樂器演奏的，而是為 "marina 長號小提琴 "演奏的：這些小提琴經過特別改裝，只有三根弦，獨特的琴橋設計是為了模仿marina 長號喧鬧、嘎嘎作響的聲音

原文簡介:
This Marian antiphon survives in autograph score among the manuscripts once in Vivaldi's possession, today preserved in the Biblioteca Nazionale Universitaria di Torino. It was evidently originally a four-movement work composed, possibly in 1726, for the Ospedale della Pietà in Venice, but the openingtwo movements, which must have occupied one or more separate gatherings, are lost. In these circumstances, a reconstruction of the complete work is not a worthwhile proposition, and the edition is therefore presented as a fragment. Its vocal part was notated by Vivaldi in the tenor clef, which was used at the Pietà by a number of singers among the figlie di coro who, in today's terms, would be classified as “low (or second) contraltos”. The score is of particular interest for featuring two parts named “Trombe” that are almost certainly not for brass instruments but for “violini in tromba marina”: specially adapted violins with only three strings anda distinctive bridge designed to mimic the raucous, rattling sound of a tromba marina.
