莫札特: 歌劇序曲集(魔笛/費加洛婚禮/唐喬凡尼等) / 麥可.亞歷山大.威廉斯 指揮 / 科隆學會合奏團
作曲家: Mozart
指揮家: Michael Alexander Willens
樂團: Kolner Akademie
莫札特大師級的序曲用古樂器演奏.
從十七世紀中期起, 序曲變成目的是為一齣大型戲劇作品開場的管弦樂作品. 這張錄音專輯收集了十二首莫札特歌劇的序曲. 這些序曲預告即將發生的劇情, 有時是在在風格上, 有時是引用晚點會出現的主題旋律, 甚至在我們看到舞台上的任何事情之前就製造出一種戲劇性的印象 – 只要想像從歌劇唐喬凡尼到魔笛難忘的序曲即可知道. 這些序曲涵蓋了莫札特21年的職業生涯: 從在14歲時寫的(彭特國王密特里達提 Mithridate)證明了這位年輕作曲家熟悉當時正流行的優雅風格(galant style), 到1791年的(狄托王的仁慈 La Clemenza di Tito), 是即將在他逝世之後就消失的莊歌劇(或正歌劇opera seria)類型中的巔峰作品, 別忘了還有大師級作品如(後宮誘逃 Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail), (費加洛婚禮 Le nozze di Figaro), (女人皆如此 Cosi fan tutte). 科隆學會合奏團使用古樂器演奏, 在麥可.亞歷山大.威廉斯的指揮下展示莫札特透過這些華麗的序曲吸引聽眾們的注意力, 其中有一些是他在舞台上和音樂會中最著名的作品.
Mozart's masterful preludes on period instruments
From the mid-seventeenth century onwards, the overture became an orchestral piece intended to precede a large-scale dramatic work. This recording brings together twelve overtures from Mozart's operas. They foreshadow the action, sometimes stylistically, sometimes by quoting themes that will appear later, to create a dramatic impression before we even see anything on stage – think of the memorable overtures to Don Giovanni and Die Zauberflote. The twelve overtures brought together here cover 21 years of Mozart's career: from Mithridate, composed when he was just 14, which testifies to the young composer's familiarity with the galant style then in vogue, to La Clemenza di Tito (1791), the high point of his work in the opera seria genre that was to disappear with him, not forgetting masterpieces such as Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail, Le nozze di Figaro and Così fan tutte. The Kolner Akademie, playing on period instruments, and its conductor Michael Alexander Willens demonstrate Mozart's unrivalled ability to capture the audience's attention with these brilliant overtures, some of which are among his most famous works, both on stage and in concert.
