Duo Fantasia Variations and Theme "A rose is a rose is A" 弦樂二重奏變奏曲主題

人幻想曲 "是獻給路易士-沃斯蓋希安教授的，她的幻想、嚴謹和熱情塑造了一代又一代美國音樂家的人生。1991 年 5 月，張琳和馬友友在哈佛大學為紀念她退休而舉辦的音樂會上首次演奏了這首曲子。在沃斯蓋希安夫人漫長的教學生涯中，她最著名的一次演講表演是以蕭邦的 A 大調小步舞曲作品 28 之 7 為基礎的。路易絲將這首曲子的文字與格特魯德-斯坦因的《玫瑰是玫瑰......》的音樂聯繫起來，讓在場的所有人都陶醉其中，給每一位聽眾帶來了難忘的、近乎禪宗般的體驗，並為他們留下了一把通往音樂理解和交流領域的鑰匙。我也曾是這些有幸的聽眾中的一員，因此我選擇了這首《序曲》作為我創作這首樂曲的源泉，以此向她致敬。雙人幻想曲 "以引子開場，隨後是 11 個變奏曲，直到最後揭示主題，即蕭邦為小提琴和大提琴改編的主題（伊萬-特切列普寧）"

原文簡介:
Duo Fantasia is dedicated to Professor Luise Vosgerchian, whose mixture of fantasy, discipline and ebullience has shaped the lives of generations of American musicians. Among these are Lynn Chang and Yo-Yo Ma who first performed the piece at a concert given in honor of her retirement from Harvard University in May 1991. In her long teaching career, one of Mme Vosgerchian's most famous lecture-performances was based on the Prélude in A major op. 28 no 7 of Frédéric Chopin. Relating the "text" of the piece to the "music" of Getrude Stein's "A rose is a rose is a rose...", Luise would enthrall and enthuse all present, striking every listener with an unforgettable - almost Zen-like - experience and leaving them with a key to the realm of musical understanding and communication. I was once one of those privileged listeners, an so I chose the Prélude as the source of the piece that I composed in her tribute. The Duo Fantasia opens with an introduction followed by eleven variatins, until the theme is finally revealed as Chopin's theme transcribed for violin and cello. (Iwan Tcherepnin)
