作曲家:Dietrich · Schumann · Brahms 
樂器: Violin and Piano
出版社: G. Henle Verlag
原文簡介:
The so-called F. A. E. Sonata is an extraordinary collective work with an equally unusual title and concept. In late October 1853, Robert Schumann, Albert Dietrich and Johannes Brahms presented it as a surprise to their friend, the violinist Joseph Joachim, who had come to Düsseldorf to give some concerts. The three letters of its title refer to Joachim’s life motto “Frei, aber einsam”; “free, but lonely”, and the sequence of notes derived from it – f-a-e – infuses the whole sonata, more or less hidden from view. Dietrich composed the first movement, and the 20-year-old Brahms the fiery Scherzo (WoO 2), while the romantic, opulent movements nos. 2 and 4 are unmistakably by Schumann (who later took them into his own 3rd Violin Sonata in a minor).
The F. A. E. Sonata remained unpublished during the lifetimes of its three composers and its dedicatee. It was not published until 1935. The present Henle edition by Michael Struck is taken from the “Violin Sonatas” volume of the New Brahms Complete Edition and supplies many new findings on problematic passages in the musical text and on the work’s genesis and reception history. 

所謂的F.A.E.奏鳴曲是一部非凡的集體創作作品，擁有同樣不尋常的標題和概念。1853年10月下旬，羅伯特·舒曼、阿爾伯特·迪特里希和約翰內斯·勃拉姆斯將這部作品作為驚喜獻給他們的朋友、前來杜塞爾多夫演出的小提琴家約瑟夫·約阿希姆。作品的標題中的三個字母代表了約阿希姆的人生格言「Frei, aber einsam」（自由，但孤獨），而從中推導出的音符序列f-a-e或隱或現地貫穿了整個奏鳴曲。第一樂章由迪特里希創作，當時20歲的勃拉姆斯創作了熱烈的詼諧曲（WoO 2），而浪漫、豐富的第2和第4樂章則無疑出自舒曼之手（他後來將其納入自己的a小調第三小提琴奏鳴曲中）。

F.A.E.奏鳴曲在三位作曲家和其受獻者在世時都未曾出版，直至1935年才首次出版。由Michael Struck編輯的亨樂版本取自「勃拉姆斯小提琴奏鳴曲全集」，提供了許多關於音樂文本中問題段落以及作品的創作和傳播歷史的新發現。
