Violin Concerto 小提琴协奏曲 总谱 朔特版

我的小提琴协奏曲》为古典规模的管弦乐队配乐，加入了竖琴和天琴，时长约 17 分钟。虽然这部作品旨在探索独奏乐器的抒情特性，但小提琴只是逐渐找到了自己完整的抒情声音，然后随着作品的发展，小提琴的作用也越来越大。从某种意义上说，这就是乐曲的 "旅程"。该作品在形式上简单明了，由三个乐章（大致为快-慢-快）组成，并以反思性的引子和尾声为框架。然而，这些形式上的划分存在于一个单一的、不间断的弧线之中。这种整体对称的形式将慢板咏叹调（本身分为三个小节）置于中点，夹在两个快板乐章之间。 乐曲的戏剧性集中在两方面的探索上。首先是不断追求 "重拾 "开头小节中由小提琴独奏--竖琴低音伴奏--所陈述的简单旋律素材。虽然这段旋律的某些方面在整个乐章中经常出现（尤其是在结束咏叹调乐章的小提琴快板中），但只有在作品最后也是最重要的高潮部分，这段旋律才以完整的形式再次出现，并伴随着管弦乐的猛烈敲击。第二次寻找的是音调的归宿，但这一归宿直到尾声才姗姗到来。小提琴协奏曲》原版受荷兰室内乐团委托，于 2012 年 2 月在阿姆斯特丹首演，由戈丹-尼科利奇担任独奏。现在的修订版是为巴纳巴斯-凯勒曼和哈雷乐团创作的。谨以此文献给我的朋友奥利弗-克努森（Oliver Knussen）。(Ryan Wigglesworth）

原文简介:
My Violin Concerto is scored for a Classical-sized orchestra, with the addition of a harp and celeste, and lasts around 17 minutes. Although the work sets out to explore the lyrical characteristics of the solo instrument, it is only gradually that the violin finds its full, lyric voice, and thence, as the work progresses, a more dominant role. This, in one sense, is the ‘journey’ of the piece.The work’s straightforward formal scheme consists of three movements (roughly fast–slow–fast) framed by a reflective introduction and epilogue. However, these formal divisions exist within a single, unbroken arc. Such an overall symmetrical shape places the slow Arioso (itself divided into three subsections) at the midpoint, sandwiched between the two Allegro movements. The dramaturgy of the piece centres on a twofold search. First there is the ongoing pursuit to ‘recapture’ the simple melodic material stated by the solo violin – accompanied by the harp’s bass register – during the opening bars. Whilst aspects of this melody are invoked frequently throughout (especially in the violin cadenza which closes the Arioso movement), it is only with the final and most important climax of the work that the melody appears again in its complete form, now accompanied by violent, orchestral stabs. The second search is for a tonal resting place, the arrival of which is delayed until the close of the epilogue. The original version of the Violin Concerto, commissioned by the Netherlands Chamber Orchestra, was premiered in Amsterdam in February 2012 with Gordan Nikolic as soloist. The present, revised version was created for Barnabás Kelemen and the Hallé. The piece is dedicated, with admiration, to my friend Oliver Knussen. (Ryan Wigglesworth)
