George Gershwin: The Annotated Rhapsody in Blue Restored to Gershwin's Original Manuscript by Alicia Zizzo 盖希文 蓝色狂想曲 手稿

蓝色狂想曲 "由才华横溢的 Alicia Zizzo 根据格什温的原稿修复。这一特别版包括双钢琴四手联弹版的增补版和完全修复的钢琴手稿。在准备出版《蓝色狂想曲》时，山姆-哈姆斯音乐公司的编辑们将自己在 19 世纪音乐学院接受的作曲训练应用到了这首曲子上。出于良好的愿望和对格什温的尊重，他们谨慎地修改了和弦、乐句、力度和重音，删除了整个段落，以创作出一部更加简洁的作品。奇怪的是，除了四个小节之外，所有的删减都是在钢琴独奏部分，管弦乐大部分都没有受到影响。双钢琴、四手联弹出版物的手稿删去了 50 多小节，乐曲缩短了几分钟。钢琴独奏版的原稿删去了约 80 小节，编辑们以第二钢琴/管弦乐缩写版为基础，进一步拉大了钢琴独奏版与格什温原意的距离。时隔 70 年之后，《蓝色狂想曲》全集终于在这个特别注释版中与后人见面了

原文简介:
Rhapsody in Blue has been restored to Gershwin's original manuscript by the talented Alicia Zizzo. This special edition includes an addendum to the two piano, four hands edition and the fully restored piano manuscript. When preparing the Rhapsody in Blue for publication, editors at Sam Harms Music Co. applied their own 19th century compositional conservatory training to the piece. With good intentions and due respect to Gershwin, they discreetly altered chords, phrases, dynamics, and accents, deleting whole passages to create a more concise work. Oddly, with the exception of four bars, all the deletions were from the piano solo sections, leaving the orchestration mostly undisturbed. Over 50 measures were deleted from the manuscript for the two-piano, four-hands publication, and the piece was shortened by several minutes. Approximately 80 measures were deleted from the original manuscript for the piano solo version and the editors used the second piano/orchestral reduction as a basis for it, further distancing the piano solo edition from Gershwin's original intent. After 70 years, the majesty of the complete Rhapsody in Blue as originally conceived and performed is finally available to future generations in this special annotated edition.
