Ave Maria From Vespers (All-Night Vigil) 圣母颂

这首动人的乐曲体现了俄罗斯东正教音乐的淳朴，同时又展现了拉赫玛尼诺夫抒情诗的广阔之美。指挥家们可以借此机会教授扩展乐句和连奏风格。晚祷是东正教会的日落晚祷，在通宵守夜的教规时间内，《圣母颂》将在午夜时分吟唱，因此乐曲的顶点有 12 个报时音符。为了达到特殊效果，槌音部分可以在台下加倍，以模拟教堂的钟声。(2:40)

原文简介:
This moving piece embodies all the simplicity of Russian Orthodox music, yet displays the sweeping beauty of Rachmaninov's lyricism. Conductors will appreciate the opportunity to teach extended phrases and legato style. "Vespers" is the sunset evening prayer of the Orthodox Church, and during the canonical hours of an all-night vigil, the "Ave Maria" would be sung at midnight, hence the 12 chime notes at the apex of the piece. For a special effect, the mallet parts can be doubled off-stage to simulate church bells. (2:40)
