Traced Overhead 艾得斯

托马斯-阿第斯的《空中轨迹》（Traced Overhead）（1995-6）由伊莫金-库珀（Imogen Cooper）在切尔滕纳姆音乐节上首演，分为三个乐章，篇幅逐渐增加。第一个乐章'Sursum'（拉丁语中表示向上运动的副词）的标记是 velocissimo quasi senza peso（非常快，仿佛没有重量），持续时间不到一分钟。在 "Aetheria "乐章中，气氛得到扩展，并继续上升，最后乐章以一个巨大的、有控制的慢板结束，不间断地进入 "Chori"（合唱）。这个乐章继续通过地层上升。缓慢移动的三部和弦层营造出一种垂直空间感，在这种空间感中，新的、丰富的和声旋律徐徐展开。作品的结尾是一个向大地翻滚的乐章，在之前探索过的层次中下降"

原文简介:
First performed by Imogen Cooper at the Cheltenham Festival, Thomas Adès’s Traced Overhead (1995-6) unfolds in three movements of progressively increasing length. The first, ‘Sursum’ (the Latin adverb of upward motion), is marked velocissimo quasi senza peso (very fast, as if without weight), and lasts for under a minute. In ‘Aetheria’ the atmosphere is expanded and the ascent is continued before the movement ends with a massive, controlled slowing down, leading without a break into ‘Chori’ (choruses). This movement continues the ascent through the strata. The slow-moving layers of three part-chords create a sense of vertical space in which a new and richly harmonised melody is unfolded. The work ends with a tumble earthwards, descending through the previously-explored levels.
