Olivier Messiaen - Messiaen-Turangalila Symphonien 梅西安-图伦加利略交响曲介绍:

 

这部交响乐的标题是由两个梵文词汇组合而成的。turana意指时间的流动及运动和节奏。lila的意思是游戏,同时也指爱情。梅西安告诉人们:整个标题可以理解为“欢乐的赞歌”或“爱情之歌”,这完全是一种超凡脱俗的欢乐,一种洋溢着神圣力量的爱情。

这部鸿篇巨制采用了三管编制的管弦乐队,一个庞大的打击乐组和钢琴及电声乐器马特诺琴。在乐曲中,钢琴占有相当重要的位置,当它与打击乐器组合时,其音响酷似印尼传统佳美兰乐队,加上独特的马特诺琴,使这部作品具有独一无二的声音色彩。

这部作品中没有任何叙事内容,犹如一幅色彩斑斓的音乐画卷,可以看见超现实的幻想世界,爱情与死亡、痛苦与喜悦,情人们的温情与爱伦*坡笔下阴森颤栗的气氛都对比鲜明地聚合在了一起。梅西安认为,他看见了使自己着迷的妄想之一——即作为作曲家深刻感受到的在乐音和色彩之间,和声的综合与变化的色调调配之间的联系。他将这部作品称为“恋歌”,并指出交响曲的构思、内容和形式都是属于哲学、美学以及神学范畴的。

值得一提的是,该曲首演时的钢琴独奏者伊冯娜*洛里奥不久以后成为作曲家的妻子。事实上,梅西安当初创作此曲时就是为她写下的钢琴声部,并将其放在重要位置上。而她也的的确确是梅西安钢琴作品的最佳演绎者。

梅西安-图伦加利略交响曲结构 : (wiki)

The work is in ten movements, linked by the common themes identified above, and other musical ideas:

  1. Introduction. Modéré, un peu vif: A "curtain raiser" introducing the "statue theme" and the "flower theme", followed by the body of the movement, which superimposes two ostinato groups with rhythmic punctuations. A reprise of the "statue" theme closes the introduction.
  2. Chant d’amour (Love song) 1. Modéré, lourd: After an atonal introduction, this movement is built on an alternation of a fast and passionate theme dominated by the trumpets, and a soft and gentle theme for the strings and ondes.
  3. Turangalîla 1. Presque lent, rêveur: Three themes are stated: one starting with a solo clarinet, the second for low brass and strings, and the third a sinuous theme on the woodwinds. The movement then develops and, later, overlaps the themes, with the addition of a new rhythm in the percussion.
  4. Chant d’amour 2. Bien modéré: Introduced by a scherzo for piccolo and bassoon, this movement is in nine sections, some of which recall and develop music heard earlier. A calm coda in A major brings it to a close.
  5. Joie du Sang des Étoiles (Joy of the Blood of the Stars). Vif, passionné avec joie: A frenetic dance whose main theme is a fast variant of the "statue theme". For Messiaen, it represented the union of two lovers seen as a transformation on a cosmic scale. The dance is interrupted by a shattering piano cadenza before a brief orchestral coda.
  6. Jardin du Sommeil d’amour (Garden of Love’s Sleep). Très modéré, très tendre: The first full rendition of the "love" theme in the strings and ondes is accompanied by idealized birdsong played by the piano, and by other orchestral coloristic effects. According to Messiaen, "The two lovers are enclosed in love's sleep. A landscape comes out from them..."
  7. Turangalîla 2. Un peu vif, bien modéré: A completely atonal movement that is intended to invoke terror, with a predominant role for the percussion ensemble.
  8. Développement d’amour (Development of Love). Bien modéré: For Messiaen, the title can be considered in two ways. For the lovers, it is terrible: united by the love potion, they are trapped in a passion growing to the infinite. Musically, this is the work's development section.
  9. Turangalîla 3. Bien modéré: A theme is introduced by the woodwind. A five-part percussion ensemble introduces a rhythmic series that then sustains a set of superimposed variations on the woodwind theme.
  10. Final. Modéré, presque vif, avec une grande joie: The movement is in sonata form: A brass fanfare, coupled with a fast variation of the "love theme", is developed and leads to a long coda, a final version of the "love" theme played fortissimo by the entire orchestra. The work ends on an enormous chord of F? major. In Messiaen's words, "glory and joy are without end".

The composer's initial plan was for a symphony in the conventional four movements, which eventually became numbers 1, 4, 6, and 10. Next, he added the three Turangalîla movements, which he originally called tâlas, a reference to the use of rhythm in Indian classical music. Finally, the 2nd, 5th, and 8th movements were inserted.[5] Early on, Messiaen authorized separate performance of movements 3, 4, and 5, as Three tâlas (not to be confused with the original use of the term for the three Turangalîla movements), but later came to disapprove of the performance of extracts.
