Music for a Found Harmonium 總譜

由英國作曲家西蒙-傑斐斯（Simon Jeffes，1949-1997 年）創作於 1984 年的《Music for a Found Harmonium》被譽為極簡主義民間音樂，曾被當代音樂團體和愛爾蘭民間樂隊錄製。它曾被用於電影中，並因出現在熱門影片《拿破崙火藥》的原聲音樂中而廣為人知。在這首編曲中，中提琴和大提琴奏出奇特而充滿活力的旋律，隨後小提琴與之呼應並加以闡述。歡快的節奏、高難度的重音、切分音和強勁的低音線都是整首樂曲伴奏的點睛之筆。這是一個讓樂團探索迷人音樂風格的機會，同時也是一個舒展他們技巧的機會，這部熱情洋溢的作品必將讓觀眾為之傾倒"

原文簡介:
Written in 1984 by English composer Simon Jeffes (1949-1997), Music for a Found Harmonium has been described as "minimalist folk music," and has been recorded by groups ranging from contemporary music ensembles to Irish folk bands. It has been used in movies, and is widely recognized for its appearance in the soundtrack to the popular Napoleon Dynamite. In this arrangement, the quirky but energetic melody is introduced by the violas and celli, and is later echoed and elaborated by the violins. Joyful rhythmic figures, challenging accents, syncopations, and a driving bass line all punctuate the accompaniment throughout the piece. Here's a chance for the orchestra to explore a fascinating musical style while stretching their technique in an exuberant work that is bound to bring the audience to its feet.
