Griffes: Roman Sketches, Op. 7

罗马素描，作品 7，是 20 世纪作曲家查尔斯-格里菲斯最受欢迎的作品之一。这套钢琴组曲由四首小品组成，创作于 1915 年至 1916 年间，体现了格里菲斯在将现代手法融入作品方面不断发展的品味。这些乐曲充满了许多令人难忘、令人回味和令人满意的钢琴时刻，需要力量、敏捷和细腻，以及对音乐的敏感。组曲以《白孔雀》开始，对异国情调的白鸟进行了感性的描绘。第二首作品《夜幕降临》捕捉了黄昏的静谧，随后渐入高潮，旋律强劲有力。第三首作品《葆拉水泉》继承了李斯特的《埃斯特别墅喷泉》和拉威尔的《水之乐》的传统，将著名的罗马喷泉的声响和波光展现得栩栩如生。最后一幅素描《云》不仅描绘了轻轻飘动的云朵，还描绘了阵阵微风和明媚的阳光。整套作品的时长不到 20 分钟。该版本包含查尔斯-格里菲斯的简短传记、其作曲风格概述以及每部作品的分析，包括对形式和演奏注意事项的详细研究。该版本是2019年音乐出版商协会保罗-雷维尔优秀图文奖的一等奖得主"

原文简介:
Roman Sketches, Op. 7, is one of 20th-century composer Charles Griffes's most popular works. This piano suite of four short pieces, written between 1915 and 1916, illustrates Griffes's evolving tastes in incorporating modern devices into his compositions. Filled with many memorable, evocative, and pianistically satisfying moments, the pieces require power, agility, and finesse, as well as musical sensitivity. The suite begins with "The White Peacock," a sensuous depiction of the exotic white bird. The second work, "Nightfall," captures the stillness of dusk, before gaining excitement and swirling to two powerful climaxes. The third piece, "The Fountain of the Acqua Paola," in the tradition of Liszt's "Fountains of the Villa d'Este" and Ravel's "Jeux d'eau," brings to life the sound and shimmer of a famous Roman fountain. The last sketch, "Clouds," not only depicts gently wafting clouds but also gusts of wind and bright rays of sunshine. The duration of the entire suite is slightly less than 20 minutes. This edition contains a short biography of Charles Griffes, an overview of his compositional style, and an analysis each work, including a detailed study of form and performance considerations. This edition is a first-prize winner of the 2019 Music Publishers Association Paul Revere Awards For Graphic Excellence.
