The Violin for Two Solo Violins and Tape (or Violin Ensemble) 小提琴 小提琴 小提琴 双小提琴 博浩版
作曲家注：《小提琴》的创作灵感来自我的挚友、杰出的小提琴家尼尔-杜法洛（Neil Dufallo）和艾米-考夫曼（Amy Kauffman），以及另一位挚友、英国牛津的小提琴制作家布鲁诺-瓜斯塔拉（Bruno Guastalla）。2008 年我母亲去世后不久，我在牛津的一家慈善商店 Oxfam 发现了一把小提琴。它被放在一个布满灰尘的旧箱子里，靠在地下室的一堆黑胶唱片旁。这把欧洲巴洛克风格的小提琴可以追溯到 19 世纪末，手工雕刻的狮头卷轴售价 5.99 英镑，非常便宜。这把小提琴需要修整一下，于是我把它带到布鲁诺的店里，他修复了这把小提琴，作为交换，我给他上了一堂作曲课。回到布鲁克林后，我又用一把修复精美的小提琴与尼尔和艾米交换--以小提琴二重奏换取小提琴课程。随后，我创作了《蓝色时刻》（Blue Hour），这是一首带有预录音轨的小提琴二重奏，2009 年，他们在约翰-佐恩（John Zorn）的纽约表演空间 "石头"（The Stone）首演了这首作品，我也开始了我的小提琴课程。第二年夏天，我们在朋友乔迪-埃尔夫位于纽约上州苹果园的家中录音棚录制了这首组曲。我最喜欢的小提琴独奏曲之一是巴赫的 G 小调第一小提琴奏鸣曲 BWV 1001 中的前奏曲。在我母亲的忌日那天，我又创作了六首乐曲，与《蓝色时刻》一起组成了一个组曲，后者成为《小提琴》的开头乐章--每晚创作一首乐曲，最后在她的忌日那天完成了《熏衣草雨》。在《让这些手和茶叶休息》中引用了巴赫的诗句，这两个乐章和《小提琴》的标题都来自我母亲在生命最后一年写的三首诗--安娜-克莱恩"

Composer's note:The Violin was inspired by my dear friends and wonderful violinists, Neil Dufallo and Amy Kauffman based in New York City, and another dear friend and violin maker, Bruno Guastalla, based in Oxford, England. Shortly after my mother passed away in 2008, I found a violin in Oxfam, a charity shop in Oxford. It was in a dusty old case leaning up against a pile of vinyl records in the basement. Priced at £ 5.99, the European baroque-style violin dating from the late 1800s, with a hand-carved lion’s head scroll was a bargain. It needed some work, so I took it to Bruno's shop and he restored the violin in exchange for composition lessons. Back in Brooklyn, with a beautifully restored fiddle in stow, I made another barter with Neil and Amy - a violin duet in exchange for violin lessons. I subsequently composed Blue Hour, a violin duet with a pre-recorded track, which they premiered at John Zorn's new York City Performance space, The Stone, in 2009, and I began my violin lessons. The following summer, we recorded the suite at our friend, Jody Elff's home studio on his apple orchard in Upstate New York.One of my favourite pieces of music for solo violin is the Presto from Bach's Violin Sonata No. 1 in G minor, BWV 1001. On the anniversary of my mouther’s death, I composed six more pieces to make a suite alongside Blue Hour, which became the opening movement for The Violin - composing one piece an evening, finishing with Lavender Rain on the day of her anniversary. The Bach is quoted in Rest These Hands and Tea Leaves and these same two movements, along with The Violin, take their titles from three poems my mother wrote in the last year of her life.- Anna Clyne -
