Variations for Piano 孟德爾頌菲利克斯 詠唱調 鋼琴 騎熊士版

這些作品的目的是 "嚴肅"，而菲力克斯-孟德爾松創作的變奏曲作品 54 則是 "嚴肅 "的。菲力克斯-孟德爾松（Felix Mendelssohn）在 1841 年為波恩貝多芬紀念館的慈善專輯創作了變奏曲作品 54。這與其說是指作品的音樂特色，不如說是作曲家希望通過自己獨特的作曲方法，寫出與當時通常的 "華麗變奏曲 "截然不同的作品。當鋼琴家、作曲家和音樂史學家將孟德爾松的《變奏曲連奏》作品 54 稱作音樂史上的一部重要作品時，他們耳邊響起的正是這種作曲技巧。孟德爾松的變奏曲系列作品 54 是浪漫主義鋼琴曲目的重要作品之一"

原文簡介:
They were intended to be “serious”, the Variations op. 54 which Felix Mendelssohn contributed to a benefit album in 1841 in aid of the Beethoven memorial in Bonn . The attribute refers less to the musical character of the work than the composer’s desire to write something quite different from the usual applause-seeking “Variations brillantes ” of the period, through his particular compositional approach. And it is exactly this compositional skill which pianists, composers and music historians have ringing in their ears, when they describe Mendelssohn’s Variations serieuses op. 54 as one of the key works of the Romantic piano repertoire.

The Variations op. 54 gave the composer the impetus to study this music form in great depth. Following on directly from this work, Mendelssohn wrote the Variations in E-flat op. 82 and B-flat major op. 83, published posthumously. These are “lighter” works, both in tonal approach and also in their technical demands.

The edition brings together Mendelssohn’s three most important sets of variations for piano – opp. 54, 82 and 83. It offers the versions of the first editions and in addition, for the first time, the numerous variants which survive in different autograph manuscripts. This offers an insight into the genesis of creating the pieces and also opens a wide field of artistic discussion for the interpreter.
