Lyric Interlude- A Study In Pastoral Style Op.110 间奏 田园曲

"英国圆号（或长笛、单簧管或中音）、小提琴& 大提琴 很少有一部音乐作品能像尼古拉斯-巴克里斯的《抒情间奏曲》那样，通过副标题就能更好地描述其特点： 田园风格研究》。2008 年，当作曲家接到底特律室内乐协会赞助人塞西莉亚-本纳（Cecilia Benner）委托他创作一首英国管作品时，他立即想到了柏辽兹在《幻想交响曲》中将英国管与双簧管的二重奏放在了《香榭丽舍》的开头，使夜色中的乡村景色突然出现，两个牧羊人用他们的管子进行着对话。为英国圆号、小提琴和大提琴创作的抒情间奏曲（作品 110a）于 2009 年 3 月在底特律的斯卡ab 俱乐部音乐会上首次演奏，但它宣扬的是另一种传统：拉尔夫-沃恩-威廉斯（1872-1958 年）的音乐所展现的英国田园风格。这首乐曲以罕见的敏感度向他表示敬意：在精致的对位法衬托下，开头起伏的哀歌节奏柔美，让人联想到挥舞的麦穗，正如沃恩-威廉姆斯（Vaughan Williams）在其第三交响曲开头的起伏一样。抒情的流露被 6/8 拍的回旋曲短暂打断后，再次倾泻而出，使作品朝着缓慢、狂喜的氛围发展，接近英国作曲家《威尔士赞美诗曲调三首前奏曲》中的最后一首。这首抒情间奏曲摒弃了乡村风格、明信片式的陈词滥调和奴性模仿，打开了通往纯美境界的大门。作曲家还为英国管（或长笛、单簧管或中提琴）和钢琴创作了这部作品的另一个版本，即作品 110b（AL 30 750）"

原文简介:
“English Horn (or flute or clarinet or alto), Violin & Cello Rarely has a musical work been better characterized by its subtitle than Nicolas Bacris Lyric Interlude: A Study in Pastoral Style. When, in 2008, the composer received the commission for a piece with English horn from Cecilia Benner, patron of the Chamber Music Society of Detroit, he immediately thought of the duo between this instrument and the oboe that Berlioz, in the Symphonie fantastique, placed at the beginning of the Scène aux champs, making suddenly appear a nocturnal country landscape where two shepherds carry on a dialogue on their pipes. First performed in March 2009 at one of the Scarab Club Concerts in Detroit, the Lyric Interlude for English horn, violin and cello (Op.110a) nonetheless proclaims another tradition: that of British pastoralism, illustrated by the music of Ralph Vaughan Williams (1872-1958), the 50th anniversary of his death having just been celebrated. This score pays him homage of rare sensitivity: set off by refined counterpoint, the undulating lament of the beginning, rhythmically supple, evokes the waving wheat, as does Vaughan Williams in the opening undulation of his Symphony No.3. The lyrical effusion, briefly interrupted by a scherzo in 6/8, again pours out, making the work evolve towards a slow, ecstatic atmosphere, close to the last of the English composers Three Preludes on Welsh Hymn Tunes. Far from bucolic, postcard clichés and servile imitation, this Lyric Interlude opens the doors to a realm where pure beauty reigns. The composer also wrote another version of this work for English horn (or flute, clarinet, or viola) and piano, Op.110b (AL 30 750)”
