String Quartet No. 1 Ives Society Critical Edition 弦乐四重奏
艾夫斯在耶鲁大学就读期间开始创作第一弦乐四重奏,并于 1902 年完成。该曲采用晚期浪漫主义调性风格,受到勃拉姆斯和德沃夏克的影响,但它使用的主题是他在教堂演唱和作为管风琴手演奏的赞美诗曲调(其中包括 "来自格陵兰冰冷的山脉"、"Beulah Land "和 "来吧,你万福之源")。艾夫斯将美国赞美诗的音色和特点融入浪漫的欧洲弦乐四重奏中,将他所热爱的两种音乐传统结合在一起,在当时的民族主义作曲家中占有一席之地"

原文简介:
Ives began his String Quartet No. 1 while in college at Yale and finished it by 1902. It is in a late-romantic tonal style influenced by Brahms and Dvorák, but it uses themes paraphrased from the hymn tunes he sang in church and played as an organist (“From Greenland's Icy Mountains”, “Beulah Land” and “Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing” among them). By infusing the sound and character of American hymnody into the romantic European string quartet, Ives united two of the musical traditions he loved and claimed a place among the nationalist composers of his day.
