Cantos Sagrados 麦克米伦．詹姆士 总谱 博浩版

作曲家注释 在创作这部作品时，我希望创作出既永恒又现代、既神圣又世俗的作品。因此，标题（《神圣之歌》）稍有误导，因为这三首诗关注的是拉丁美洲的政治压迫，并特意与传统宗教经文相结合，以强调与该次大陆穷人更深层次的团结。正是我对解放神学的兴趣，让我在《Búsqueda》（一部早期的音乐剧作品）中将阿根廷五月广场母亲的诗歌与拉丁弥撒经文结合起来，现在又在《Cantos Sagrados》中尝试类似的思想综合。阿里尔-多夫曼诗歌中的声音属于那些遭受特殊政治压迫的人：政治犯的 "失踪"。安娜-玛丽亚-门多萨（Ana Maria Mendoza）关于瓜德罗普岛圣女的诗歌通过提出一个更基本的文化和历史问题来解决同样的问题

原文简介:
Composer's Notes In writing this work I wanted to compose something which was both timeless and contemporary, both sacred and secular. The title (Sacred Songs) is therefore slightly misleading as the three poems are concerned with political repression in Latin America and are deliberately coupled with traditional religious texts to emphasise a deeper solidarity with the poor of that sub-continent. It was my interest in Liberation Theology which made me combine the poems of the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo in Argentina with the texts of the Latin mass in Búsqueda (an earlier music-theatre work) and has now led me to attempt a similar synthesis of ideas in Cantos Sagrados. The voices in Ariel Dorfman’s poems belong to those who suffer a particular type of political repression: the 'disappearance' of political prisoners. Ana Maria Mendoza’s poem about the Virgin of Guadeloupe tackles the same problem by asking a more fundamental cultural and historical question.
