Vasaras vakara muzika (Music for a Summer Evening) 瓦斯克斯 钢琴独奏 朔特版

彼得斯-瓦克斯在波罗的海作曲家圈中占有特殊地位。他不仅是拉脱维亚有史以来最重要、最受欢迎的作曲家，而且总是以一种狂热的激情向听众倾诉，似乎指向某种更高的东西。毫无疑问，这种更高的东西是超越人类世界的，但也存在于每个人的内心：神性。"我深深植根于自然，植根于北方的自然。它影响着我所有的音乐。我们所了解的大自然也是多种多样的；我们有非常分明的四季。冬天很长，夏天很短，因此更加美丽和令人向往。中间的季节则颇具戏剧性"。 2009 年，作为一种 "安可"，Vasks 根据古老的草图创作了《Vasaras vakara muzika -Music for a Summer Evening》（《夏夜音乐》），因此具有相当强的传统性。 瓦斯克斯说："它描述了夏日宁静的尾声。夕阳西下。缓慢。对以往经历的回忆涌上心头。随着回忆的出现，强度也随之增加。在结尾处，人们听到了一种民谣：'我们在暴政时期幸存下来，并保持了我们的身份'。结局是安静的，一切都沉睡了"。(克里斯托夫-施吕伦译：约翰-帕特里克-托马斯和 W. 理查德-里维斯）

原文简介:
Peteris Vasks occupies a special position in the circle of Baltic composers. He is not only the most significant and popular composer ever to come out of Latvia; he always speaks to his listeners with a fervent intensity that seems to point to something higher. This higher aspect is without a doubt something that stands above the world of humanity but is also present within each person: divine nature. “I am deeply rooted in nature, in the nature of the North. It influences all of my music. The nature we know is also quite various; we have four very distinct seasons. The winter is very long, the summer very short and therefore all the more beautiful and longed for. The seasons in between are quite dramatic.” In 2009, as a kind of “encore”, Vasks wrote Vasaras vakara muzika –Music for a Summer Evening based on old sketches and therefore rather strongly anchored in tradition. Vasks says: “It describesthe quiet end of a summer day. The sun sets. Slowness. Memories of previous experiences rise. With the memories’ appearance comes an increase in intensity. Towards the end, a kind of folksong is heard: ‘We have survived the time of tyranny and have kept our identity’. The ending is quiet, everything is asleep.“ (Christoph SchlürenTranslation: John Patrick Thomas and W. Richard Rieves)
