Sonata for Solo Viola op. 87 霍洛威 奏鳴曲 中提琴 中提琴獨奏 博浩版

這首中提琴奏鳴曲（無伴奏）創作于 1999 年。在整首樂曲中，獨奏者的 C 弦調低了一個半音，使音色更加暗淡，並在第一小節就確立了貫穿所有四個樂章的旋律/和聲的特點。 第一樂章--"緩慢而深思熟慮"--逐漸將開頭的構思擴展為詠歎調和音型，作為第二樂章的前奏--"Vivacissimo"--全程低音奏出，是一個顫音的塔蘭泰拉舞曲，與之形成對比的是大塊的雙終止音，與吉格舞曲交替出現。第三段--前奏曲--狂想曲和准前奏曲，包含一個簡單的自足旋律，並連接到第四段，在這裡，來自迴旋曲的類似吉格舞曲的素材提供了主要內容，擴展為熱情的康塔比拉，並平靜地進入尾聲，不僅是終曲，而且是對第一段的回憶，是對整個奏鳴曲的回憶"

原文簡介:
This Sonata for Viola (unaccompanied) was written in 1999. The soloist’s C-string is tuned down a semitone for the entire piece, giving a duskier quality to the tone-colour, and setting up in the very first bar the characteristic melodic/harmonic shape that infiltrates all four movements. I – “slowish and thoughtful” – gradually expands this opening idea into cantilena and pattern, as prelude toII – Vivacissimo – played muted throughout, a tremolando tarantella, with contrasting section, chunky double-stops, alternating with something of a gigue. III – adagio – rhapsodic and quasi-improvisando, enclosing a simple self-contained melody, and linking intoIV, where the gigue-like material from the scherzo provides the principal substance, expanding into an ardent cantabile, and calming into the Coda not just the finale but, in its reminiscences of I, to the sonata as a whole.
