I CAN'T GIVE YOU ANYTHING BUT LOVE

I CAN'T GIVE YOU ANYTHING BUT LOVE (BABY) Lyrics
Dorothy Fields / Jimmy McHugh

I can't give you anything but love, baby
That's the only thing I've plenty of, baby
Dream a while scheme a while
We're sure to find
Happiness and I guess
All those things you've always pined for
Gee, I'd like to see you looking swell, baby
Diamond bracelets Woolworth doesn't sell, baby
Till that lucky day
You know darned well, baby
I can't give you anything but love

  • 枫下拾英 / 乐韵书香 / Leonard Berstein 告诉你甚麽是古典音乐!(ZT)
    本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛《What is Classical Music》中文内容摘要:

    在万人瞩目的音乐厅,既能欣赏107人演奏的交响乐,又能倾听到极其通俗风趣的音乐讲授,上个世纪五、六十年代,许多美国和加拿大的青少年都在音乐大师伯恩斯坦的讲授中,获得了对音乐的认知能力。以下是伯恩斯坦讲授的一个章节——《什么是古典音乐》

      用什么字眼来概括古典音乐?


      用什么字眼来代替古典音乐的“古典”二字?我们无非是想通过这些更通俗的字眼来讲解什么是“古典音乐”。

      然道只要是编排不像爵士乐,就是古典音乐?人们常说“我真爱好音乐”,意思是指,他们喜爱韩德尔的音乐(古典音乐),而非史派克强,但也有好的爵士乐和好的流行歌曲,你不能用“好”来描述其差别,有好的韩德尔,也有好的史派克强。因此,这个字我们得作罢。

      然后人们用“严肃”来形容古典音乐,但有些爵士乐也严肃,还有什么比非洲战士的战鼓(典型的爵士乐)更严肃的?因此,这个字眼也不行。

      接着有些人用“有学问”来说明只有非常聪明、受过良好教育的人能懂古典音乐。显然是错的。因为许多热爱贝多芬的人并非爱因斯坦之流。

      “艺术”音乐这个字眼呢?许多人用这个词来描述贝多芬与大里布鲁克间的差异,但也行不通,因为也有同样多的人认为爵士乐是艺术,而它的确是。若是我们试图用交响音乐,那就排除了为钢琴独奏、小提琴独奏或弦乐四重奏而写的音乐,它们当然都被视为古典音乐。

      也许到目前为止,发明过最好的字是“长发”,因为那是爵士音乐家自己创出来的,以贬低任何不是属于他们的音乐。但我看过不少爵士乐字头上也有长发,因此我想这个字也行不通。

      既然所有的字都不对,让我来找出对的字,方法是先弄清不同音乐间的差异,真正的差别在当作曲家写出所谓的“古典音乐”时,他会写下他要的确是音符,他希望唱出那些音符的确是乐器或声音,甚至详细到乐器或声音的数目,他还会写下他能想到的指示,以尽量详尽地告诉他们该知道的一切,应该多快或多慢,以协助表演者精确表演出他想出的那些音符。当然,世上没有足够的字眼能让表演者知道作曲家想写的一切,但那正是使表演者兴奋的事情。

      表演者只是凡人,因此每一个揣摸出来的都略有不同:例如,《命运交响曲》开头的乐句,相信你们都知道旋律。唱给我听。第一个指挥赋予最后一个音符特别的深度,就是较长的那个,像这样“弱弱弱强”;另一个指挥同样努力想揣摩出贝多芬真正想要的,可能觉得那个音符中第一个定位特别强调,像这样“强弱弱弱”;还有位指挥,也许不像前面两位那样忠实,可能断定演奏这四个音符时应该更加强调,更庄严,像这样“强强强强”,我们都听过这些版本,但除了这些差别,而它是源于这三位指挥的不同个性,他们指挥的仍是相同音符、相同主旋律,用的是相同乐器,其目的也是一样,就是让乐谱上贝多芬的音符,以他们认为他希望的方式鲜活地表现出来;这意味着他们所谓的“古典音乐”,除了因为表演者个人的性格是不能改变的。这种音乐是永恒的,不能改变的,是精确的。

      “精确”,也许正是我们该称呼的名词,我们称它为“精确音乐”,因为它只有一种表演方式,而且那种方式是作曲家亲自告诉我们的。

      但我们若是以流行歌《我只能给你爱,我的宝贝》,表演它的方式无穷无尽,它可以让合唱团唱,或是让路易斯、阿姆斯特或玛丽亚卡拉丝唱,或是任何人唱,它可以省略歌词演奏,可以用爵士乐团、交响乐团或是玩具笛子演奏,慢或快,热情或感伤、大声或复杂,都无所谓,它可以只演奏一次,或是重复十五次,可以用任何调子甚至下面和弦改变都行,连曲调本身都能改变,可以即兴表演。(大师伯恩斯坦用几种演奏方式来表现同一首歌曲)这些方法没有一个是错的,对那些当时如此做的特殊表演者而言,每一种似乎都对,而且适合表演场所,这首歌没有非如此表演不可的规定,这表示它不是精确音乐,它不用完全照作曲家所写的方式表演,事实上,流行歌手绝不该每次都按照作曲家所写的方式表演。民谣也有相同的情况,而且更理直气壮。因为没有作曲家规定它该如何表演,至于爵士乐的变化更是如此,它是即兴的,边表演边创作音乐,而且几乎从不费事地将它写下来。

      因此,现在我们至少有较适合古典音乐的字,就是“精确音乐”,虽然可能能想出比“精确”更好的字,来形容通常所谓的古典音乐,让我们不再用错误的“古典”二字。


      古典音乐另有其义

      这个词为何错误?的确有古典音乐这种东西,但是我们所说的确实是不同种类的东西,古典音乐指的是音乐史上非常持久的时间,叫做古典时期。在那个时代所写的音乐叫做古典音乐。现在让我们对古典时期所发生的事有点概念,它大约由1700年到1800年,持续了一个世纪,即你们都知道的十八世纪。


      它是规则的完美的

      让我尝试以前五十年为例,当时的美洲是怎样的呢?它仍在开拓中,到处都是新来的拓荒者,他们过着艰苦的生活。后来由平地建立一个新国家,在这同时,欧洲却非常不同,欧洲人已不再探索与钉木头,它在设法使它已经建立的事物完美,那时的欧洲是个规则与法规的时代,并让那些规则与法规尽可能精确,这就是古典主义的基础。将规则带至完善境界,它创造了古典建筑、古典戏剧与古典音乐。古典音乐是人们所追求之物的时代所写的音乐,人们极尽一切力量要有完美形式的音乐,像只漂亮的古希腊花瓶,两位音乐巨人的名字巴哈和韩德尔,尤其是巴哈,他将在他之前的作曲家曾经验过、玩过的所有规则集结,尽人类所能使些规则完美,以“遁走曲”这种形式为例,“遁走曲”规则有点像你买装配组时所附的指导说明,他们精确地告诉你,如何盖一栋房子,一辆火车或摩天轮。用他的这首《第四号布兰登堡协奏曲》为例,首先是用中提琴奏出主题,然后加入第二部分的小提琴,高四个音符,然后在第三段高五阶由另一只小提琴加入,接着在第四段由大提琴和低音提琴加入,最后,第五段长笛加入。这首曲子不只是五个分开的片断,它们全结合在一起。


      也是快活机智有趣的

      再谈后五十年,一切都变了,他们的音乐与巴哈的完全不同。那种改变是如何发生的?难道莫非是共和党人到芝加哥参加集会,然后投票改变音乐风格。不是,它是自然发生的,。海顿与莫扎特时代的人,认为巴哈严肃的“遁走曲”陈腐而无趣,他们要新的东西,不要那么复杂,但有漂亮曲调与简单伴奏的优雅精致、令人愉快的音乐,这正与那个时代吻合。那个时代宫廷里的女士先生们,穿戴有蕾丝袖口的丝衬与镶珠宝的扇子,因此,为他们产生过优雅音乐。

      而它最重要的特色是曲调,曲调一定要好,现在听莫扎特的《C大调协奏曲》,没有人能写出与莫扎特一样的旋律。它和巴哈的“遁走曲”一样充满规则与法规,只是还有许多其它的规则——他们想要的简单的令人愉快的音乐,这种简单令人愉快新的音乐,另一个特点是它很有趣,而且快活、机智、朝气蓬勃。听《费加洛的婚礼序曲》,很有趣吧,好像坐云霄飞车充满欢笑与好心情,令你喘不过气来。其实古典音乐很好玩。

      机智、幽默、有趣是海顿与莫扎特音乐中的重要部分,但它也有雍容、优雅、强度与其它许多东西,但最重要的是它有古典之美,建立平衡的形式就像巴哈对他的“遁走曲”一样严谨,它也在寻求完美,因此是古典的。


      更是永恒的

      那么情感放在音乐中的那一部分?人们总认为感觉与情感是音乐中的主要的东西,令你有所感,有哀伤,有痛苦,或胜利或性灵喜悦,但奥妙的是莫扎特、海顿是会让你有那些感觉的,伟大作曲家创作音乐时,都会让你感觉到深刻的情感,因为他伟大,因为他在音乐中有话要告诉你,因此伟大音乐家的音乐会永远持续,或许到永远。那种永恒的特质,或许是“古典”这个词最重要的意义,古典是永垂不朽的东西。

      古典音乐时期的集大成者贝多芬,他总结了莫扎特、海顿的规则,加以发扬光大,他是古典时期的最后一人,浪漫时期的第一人。

    English script:

    [ORCH: Handel - Water Music]
    Now the question before the house today is: "What is Classical Music?" Now anybody knows that that piece of Handel we just played is classical music, for instance. Right? Right. So what's the problem - why are we asking this question? Well, there's a good reason, as we're going to find out today. You see, everybody thinks he knows what classical music is: just any music that isn't jazz, like a Stan Kenton arrangement or a popular song, like "I Can't Give You Anything but Love Baby," or folk music, like an African war dance, or "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." But that isn't what classical music means at all. People use this word to describe music that isn't jazz or popular songs or folk music, just because there isn't any other word that seems to describe it better. All the other words that are used are just as wrong, like "good" music for instance. You've all heard people say "I just love good music" - meaning that they love Handel instead of Spike Jones. Well, you know what they mean, but after all, isn't there such a thing as good jazz, or a good popular song? You can't use the word good to describe the difference. There's good Handel, and good Spike Jones; and we'll just have to forget that word.
    Then people use the word "serious" music when they mean Handel or Beethoven, but there again, there's some jazz that's very serious, and heavens - what's more serious than an African war dance when the kettle is boiling. That word's no good either. Some people use the word high-brow, which means that only very smart, well-educated people can dig it, but we know that's wrong because we all know a lot of people who aren't exactly Einsteins who'll dig Beethoven the most. Well, what about "art" music? Now there's a word a lot of people use to try to describe the difference between Beethoven and Dave Brubeck, let's say. That's no good either, because just as many other people think that jazz is also an art - which indeed it is. And if we try to use the word symphony music - well, that leaves out all the music written for piano solo, violin solo and string quartet; and certainly all that's supposed to be classical. Maybe the best word invented so far is, of all things, "long-hair". Because it was made up by jazz musicians themselves to nail down all the kinds of music that aren't properly theirs. But we've all seen enough jazz musicians who have long hair on their own heads, so I guess even that word won't do.
    Well, since all these words are wrong, let's try to find one that's right by finding out first, what the real difference is between the different kinds of music. The real difference is that when a composer writes a piece of what's usually called classical music, he puts down the exact notes that he wants, the exact instruments or voices that he wants to play or sing those notes -even the exact number of instruments or voices; and he also writes down as many directions as he can think of, to tell the players or singers as carefully as he can everything they need to know about how fast or slow it should go, how loud or soft it should be, and millions of other things to help the performers to give an exact performance of those notes he thought up. Of course, no performance can be perfectly exact, because there aren't enough words in the world to tell the performers everything they have to know about what the composer wanted. But that's just what makes the performer's job so exciting - to try and find out from what the composer did write down as exactly as possible what he meant. Now of course, performers are all only human, and so they always figure it out a little differently from one another.
    For instance, one conductor might decide that the beginning of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony - which I'm sure you all know -- you know how it goes? Sing it to me. Right. You haven't got the right key, but anyway that's how it goes.
    [PLAY: Beethoven - Fifth Symphony]
    Well, let's say that one conductor decides that those four notes
    [PLAY: Beethoven - Fifth Symphony]
    should get a big extra bang on that last note, the long one like this.
    [ORCH: Beethoven - Fifth Symphony]
    And then another conductor who is trying just as hard as the first one to figure out what Beethoven really wanted, might feel that it's the first note of those four that should get the strongest accent. Like this:
    [ORCH: Beethoven - Fifth Symphony]
    Then still another conductor - maybe not quite so faithful to Beethoven as the first two - might decide that the four notes should be played more importantly - slower and more majestically, like this:
    [ORCH: Beethoven - Fifth Symphony]
    We've all heard that version of it. But in spite of these differences, which come out of the different personalities of these three conductors, they're still all conducting the same notes, in the same rhythm, with the same instruments, and with the same purpose - which is to make Beethoven's printed notes come to life in the way they think he'd want them to. This means that what people call classical music can't be changed, except by the personality of the performer. This music is permanent, unchangeable, exact. Now, there's a good word - exact - maybe that's what we should call this kind of music instead of classical, we could call it exact music. Because there's only one way it can be played, and that way has been told us by the composer himself.
    But, on the other hand, if we take a popular song, like for instance, "I Can't Give You Anything but Love Baby" there's no end to the ways in which it can be played or sung. It can be sung by a chorus or by Louis Armstrong or by Maria Callas or by nobody. It can just be played without words by a jazz band or a symphony orchestra or a kazoo, slow or fast, hot or sentimental, loud or soft. It just doesn't matter. It can be played through once or repeated fifteen times, in any key, even with the chords underneath changed. Even the tune itself can be changed and improvised on and fooled around with. For instance, the way the tune goes on the printed sheet is like this:
    [PLAY: McHugh & Fields -
    I Can't Give You Anything but Love, Baby]
    Pretty dull, isn't it? But when Louis Armstrong sings it, it begins to sound something like this:
    [SING: McHugh & Fields -
    I Can't Give You Anything but Love, Baby]
    or if a cool, progressive cat is playing it on the piano at Birdland, it might sound something like this:
    [PLAY: McHugh & Fields -
    I Can't Give You Anything but Love, Baby] Almost unrecognizable. Or if it were sung by, let's say, the Fred Waring Glee Club it would have a completely different sound. It goes something like:
    [PLAY: McHugh & Fields -
    I Can't Give You Anything but Love, Baby]
    Something like that. But the main thing about all this is that none of those ways is wrong. Each way seems right for those particular performers who are doing it at the time, and right for the particular occasion at which they're doing it, whether it's for dancing; or on a television show; or at Birdland. So now at last we have a better word for classical music -- exact music, --and while there may be even a better word for it (which I can't think of at the moment) at least "exact" is not a wrong word; and classical is a wrong word. As a matter of fact, I'm sure that you can all probably think up a lot of other words better than "exact" to describe the music that's usually called classical, and I'd love for you to write me any of the ones you think of that are really good. Who knows? Maybe one of your words will really catch on and become a part of our language, so that we'll never have to use that wrong word "classical" again.
    Well, why is the word "classical" a wrong word? Because, you see, while there is such a thing as classical music, it means something very different from what we've been talking about. It doesn't mean long-hair music -- it means only one certain kind of long-hair music. For instance, take this well-know musical phrase:
    [ORCH: Rimsky-Korsakov - Scheherezade]
    Do you know what that is? Well, let's hear it. Right -Scheherezade. OK. Next question: is that classical music? It's not. Classical music refers to a very definite period in the history of music, which is called the classical period. The music that was written in that time is called classical music, and Scheherezade simply wasn't written in that time. But this music was.
    [ORCH: Mozart - Piano Concerto no. 21]
    I'm sure you can tell the difference between Scheherezade and this bit of Mozart we just played. The Mozart is classical music. Now let's see if we can get some idea of when this classical period happened. It lasted about a hundred years - from about 1700 to 1800, which is, as you know, called the 18th Century. But what do we know about this 18th Century? Well, let's take the first half of it, for instance - the first 50 years. We've all learned in school what America was like during those years: it was still being settled; pioneers were exploring new savage territories; there were new frontiers all over the place; we were fighting the Indians right and left. In other words, we were going through a tough time, living a rough life and building a new country from the ground up.
    Now this same time in Europe was very different. Over there we find a nice old civilization that had been building for hundreds of years; and so by the time the 18th Century rolled around, Europe was no longer just exploring and nailing logs together, it was already trying to make perfect what it had already built up. And so these same first 50 years in Europe were a time of rules and regulations and of getting those rules and regulations to be as exactly right as possible. This is what makes classicism - this bringing of rules to a pitch of perfection. It makes classical architecture, classical drama and classical music. That's what classical music really means: music written in a time when perfect form and balance and proportion are what everybody is looking for -music which tries more than anything else to have a perfect shape - like a beautiful ancient Greek vase.
    Now the two giant musical names of these first 50 years of the 18th Century were Bach and Handel. Especially Bach; because he took all the rules that the composers who lived before him had been experimenting with, and fiddling with - and he made those rules as perfect as a human being can make them. For instance, take that form called the fugue. Now the rules of a fugue are something like the printed directions you get when you buy an Erector set; they tell you exactly how to build a house, or a fire truck, or a Ferris Wheel. You start a Ferris Wheel by attaching one metal section to another on the floor; then you add one exactly four notches higher; then another five notches higher than that; and so on.
    The you make the wheel that goes around the whole construction. That's just what Bach does in a fugue; take this one, for instance, from his Fourth Brandenburg Concerto. He lays the foundation for his Ferris Wheel by starting with the viola -that's the first section.
    [INSTR: Bach - Brandenburg Concerto no. 4]
    Then he adds the second section - by a violin, exactly four notches higher - which means, in musical terms four notes higher, and four bars later:
    [INSTR: Bach - Brandenburg Concerto no. 4]
    Now the third piece is attached by another violin, five notches higher.
    [INSTR: Bach - Brandenburg Concerto no. 4]
    Then the fourth piece - by the cello and the bass, way down underneath.
    [INSTR: Bach - Brandenburg Concerto no. 4]
    and finally, the fifth piece is put into place, by the flute, way up on top:
    [INSTR: Bach - Brandenburg Concerto no. 4]
    Now the foundation is built, and Bach can start surrounding it with his circular wheel. Now the wonderful thing about that foundation is that it's not just five separate bits, one at a time; they're all joined together; which means that whenever a new instrument is added, the others still go on playing something else; so that by the time the fifth piece is attached - by the flute -you have five different parts all going at once - just as the five different pieces of the Erector set are all joined together at once. Now, listen to it all together.
    [INSTR: Bach - Brandenburg Concerto no. 4]
    Isn't that marvelous? You see, that's classical perfection.
    Now Bach died in 1750, which is very convenient for us, because it just neatly divides the century into two halves. The next 50 years were very different indeed. Everything changed; the new big giants were now named Haydn and Mozart, and their music is completely different from Bach's. But it was still classical music, because Haydn and Mozart were still looking for the same thing Bach was looking for - perfection of form and shape. But not through fugues any more. Now it was all going to be different.
    Now, how does such a change happen? Do composers just go to a convention, like the Republicans in Chicago, and decide by voting to change the style of music? Well, not at all; it happens by itself; because as times change, and history changes, people change with it; and composers are people too; so it stands to reason that their music is also going to change.
    The people of Haydn and Mozart's time thought Bach was old fashioned and boring with all those fugues and things. And they wanted something new - not so complicated - with pretty tunes and easy accompaniments, music that was elegant and refined and pleasant. And this was right in line with the times; it was a time of elegance and refinement, good manners, proper etiquette; it was a time of lace cuffs and silk suits and powdered wigs and jewelled fans for the lades and gentlemen of the court. So out came lovely, elegant music for them in which the main thing was the tune. The tune had to be good. Now listen to this marvelous tune from a piano concerto by Mozart. Notice there's no Erector set here; only the gorgeous melody, with a simple little accompaniment underneath. Simple, but oh how beautiful.
    [ORCH: Mozart - Piano Concerto in C maj.]
    Nobody could write melodies like Mozart. But that melody, beautiful as it is, is also full or rules and regulations, just as Bach's fugue was; only they are a whole bunch of other rules and regulations, rules which make the easy, pleasant kind of music that was wanted in those second 50 years of the century. Another thing about this new, easy, pleasant kind of music was that it was fun. Those people in lace cuffs and powdered wigs wanted to be entertained. They wanted amusement and pleasure out of music --beautiful melodies, sure -- but also gay, witty, high spirits. Now Mozart was a master of this, too. For instance, here's the overture to "The Marriage of Figaro", an opera by Mozart. A very strict piece, which follows still another bunch of rules and regulations about something called sonata form which we won't go into, but it's as different from a Bach fugue as milk is from orange juice. The main thing about it is not how it's put together, like that old Erector set, but that it's gay and witty and exciting - and - fun. Just listen to it.
    [ORCH: Mozart - Overture to the Marriage
    of Figaro]
    Isn't that fun? It's like a ride in a roller-coaster, full of laughing and good humor. It leaves you breathless. It makes you have a good time. It makes you smile.
    But when it comes to humor in music - real jokes, - nobody ever beats Haydn. Haydn was the great master of amusement. Now there's one thing you should know about jokes in music: you can never make a musical joke about anything except music. Which doesn't mean music can't be funny: it means only that it can't be funny about "two Martians landed on Earth and said take us to your leader ..." or "there were three Scotchmen sitting on a fence and one said to the other..." E-flats and F-sharps can't tell you anything about Martians and Scotchmen, but they still can make you laugh - and the way they do it is by surprising you. Surprise is one of the main ways of making anyone laugh, anyway as you know, like sneaking up behind someone and yelling "Boo!" or playing an April-Fool joke on somebody, of saying hello to someone when they expect to say goodbye.
    In music, composers can make these surprises in lots of different ways - by making the music loud when you expect it to be soft, or vice versa; or by suddenly stopping in the middle of a phrase; or by writing a wrong note on purpose, a note you don't expect, that doesn't belong to the music. Let's try one, just for fun as a matter of fact. You all know those silly notes called:
    [SING: Shave and a hair cut, two bits]
    All right. You know that? Just for fun, you sing "Shave and a Haircut", and the orchestra will answer you with "2 bits" and you see what happens.
    [AUDIENCE & ORCH: Shave and a haircut]
    You laughed. But, most people don't laugh out loud about musical jokes. That's one of the things about musical humor: you laugh inside. Otherwise you could never listen to a Haydn symphony: it's so funny that the laughing would drown out the music. You'd never hear it. But that doesn't mean that a Haydn symphony isn't funny, just the same.
    For instance, you've all heard over and over and over again the Surprise Symphony by Haydn, where he suddenly bangs out a loud chord in the middle of a soft little piece. Well, we're going to make musical history by not playing the Surprise Symphony today, because you all know it so well from hearing it year after year that we're going to play something else. We're going to take the last movement of the Symphony in B-flat - No. 102 - imagine writing 102 symphonies! - in fact he wrote 104! - well anyway, this last movement of no. 102 is full of surprises and fun. Now, let me show you some of the ways Haydn makes fun in this piece. It starts with this tune, which is fast and gay, and skitters all over the place like a little funny dachshund puppy:
    [PLAY: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    Did you hear that last little echo in the woodwinds? It's like someone laughing at something you just said: for instance, if you say very seriously
    [SING: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    and someone makes fun of you, and goes
    [SING: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    you may not like him for doing it, but it's still fun: it's like teasing, which is fun. That's just what Haydn does: the serious old strings just said -
    [ORCH: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    and the little piping woodwinds make fun, by imitating and mocking them
    [ORCH: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    Then, later on, after he's been through some other tunes and jokes, he has to come back to this first tune we just heard. And the way he slips into it is again a surprise; he just sneaks back to it, when you least expect it - as though you thought your kid brother had gone away on a trip, and all the sudden there he turns up hiding under the kitchen table. That's a shock - that would make you laugh. That's just what Haydn does. Listen to how he does it. And remember the first tune we're getting back to is
    [SING: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    Now listen to how he sneaks back to it.
    [ORCH: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    See how sneakily he got back to it; sort of while you weren't looking - boom, he's there. Later on he has to sneak back again to the same tune, but in a different way - now it's as though your kid brother suddenly turned up in the bathtub.
    [ORCH: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    There are lots of other musical jokes he makes in this movement. Like this one - where he pretends to be starting the tune again, and then surprises you by not doing it at all. Pretending, you know, is always fun; it's like a trick - I have a penny in my hand. Whoosh - it's gone. What happened to it? That's what Haydn does.
    [ORCH: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    And how about that last scale: that's really like yelling "Boo!"
    [SING: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    Then he goes on making more false beginnings and scaring you with more sudden louds and sudden softs like this.
    [ORCH: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    Now I want to play this whole movement for you - it's not very long; but funny things shouldn't be long anyway. Haven't you always noticed that the shorter a joke is, the more you laugh at it. We all know people who tell jokes badly, and that's usually because they don't get to the punch line soon enough. Well, Haydn does; he's the best joke-teller in the whole history of music.
    [ORCH: Haydn - Symphony no. 102]
    Now I'm afraid that you're beginning to think that all classical music is supposed to be funny, and I hope not, because it is not true. It can be very serious. All I'm saying is that wit and humor and fun and gaiety are one part of this music of Haydn and Mozart; but it also has elegance, gracefulness, and strength and much more. But most of all it has classical beauty; it sets up its rules and regulations of balance and form just as strictly as Bach did in his fugues; it was looking for perfection. That's why it's classical. Now you may say: if that was the most important thing - perfect form, rules and so on - then where does emotion come in? People always think that feelings and emotion are the main thing in music; it should make you feel something - not just laughter - but maybe sorrow or pain or victory or spiritual joy. But the secret is that Mozart and Haydn do make you feel all those things - even using those strict rules and being so interested in proportions and shapes and all the rest of it. Because the truth is that any great composer, writing music in any period, classical or not classical, will make you feel deep emotions, because he's great - because he has something to say, because he has something to tell you in his music. And because of this, a great composer's music will always last and last, maybe forever, because people keep on feeling emotions whenever they hear it. And that lasting quality is perhaps the most important meaning of the word "classical". A classic is something that last forever, like that Greek vase we talked about or Robinson Crusoe or Shakespeare's plays, or a Mozart symphony. Because Mozart's music makes the people who hear it feel something, feel that classical perfection with that extra something added called beauty. For instance, when we listened to that gorgeous melody of his before, we were moved, are moved, and touched. We feel something. Let's listen again to that same long wonderful line of notes; and see if you don't feel deep feeling -almost sad, but not quite; and yet not really happy either, very special feelings.
    [ORCH: Mozart - Piano Concerto in C maj.]
    I think maybe that's my favorite melody in the world, but then I always feel that every time I hear a Mozart melody no matter what it is.
    Now the classical period we've been talking about came to an end in the beginning of the 19th century with a great composer named Beethoven. Most people think of Beethoven as the greatest composer of all time. Why should this be? Because Beethoven took all those classical rules of Mozart and Haydn and just went to town with them: his music got bigger in every way. Where Haydn made a sweet little joke, to be told in a living room, Beethoven makes jokes that are world-shaking, that have to be told in the middle of a raging storm. Where Haydn made amusing surprises, Beethoven makes astonishing surprises that leave you gasping, instead of smiling. Where Mozart was gay, Beethoven is crazy with joy. It's like looking at classical music through a magnifying glass - it's all much, much bigger. The main thing Beethoven added to classical music was much more personal emotion; his emotions are bigger, and easier to see.
    Now that we call romanticism; and that's the name we give to the music, most of it, that was written in the hundred years after Beethoven. It means being very free with your emotions, not so reserved and proper and shy, but telling your deepest feelings right away without even thinking if you should or not. Let's see if I can give you an example. If I'm introduced to a lady named Miss Smith, let's make it a girl named Miss Smith, and I said, "How do you do, Miss Smith? I'm very happy to make your acquaintance" - then I'm being classical; proper, elegant, refined - I'm obeying the rules. But if I say "How do you do, what gorgeous eyes you have, I love you" - then I'm being a romantic. I'm expressing my feelings right away, unashamed; I'm full of fire and passion, and I don't care who knows it. Now see if you can feel some of that in this music of Chopin, for example, who was a real romantic.
    [PLAY: Chopin - Fantasy in F minor]
    Isn't that romantic? Or listen to this bit by the great romantic composer Schumann.
    [ORCH: Schumann - Symphony no. 2]
    See what I mean? That's real burning, romantic, unashamed, emotion, real passion right out there for all to see. It's pretty different from Mozart and Haydn, you must admit.
    Now again, the romantic composers didn't just hold a convention in Chicago and decide to go romantic: again it's a reflection of changes that happen in history, the way people live and think and feel and act. And it all began, strangely enough, with that greatest classicist of all, Beethoven. You see, he was two things at the same time: He was the last man of the classical period, and the first man of the romantic period, all at once. I guess you could say that he was a classicist who went too far; he was so full of feeling and emotion that he couldn't keep himself chained up in all those rules and regulations of the 18th century; and so he just broke his chains, and started a whole new kind of music. And that was the end of classical music.
    So what have we learned today. First of all, that classical music does not mean just long hair music, but certain special kinds of long hair music that were written in the eighteenth century by such people as Bach and Handel, then by Mozart and Haydn, and finally by the great Beethoven. We're going to end by playing Beethoven's wonderful overture to Egmont, which is about as classical as you can get. At the same time it is full of romantic feelings; like mystery, longing, rage, triumph and joy. Of course, it's not yet the big, wild kind of romanticism that will come later in the music of Chopin and Schumann, or Tchaikovsky or Wagner or the rest of them. Beethoven is the beginning of romantic music. Don't forget that he still comes out of the 18th century, even though he lived for about 25 years into the 19th century; but his rules, even though he breaks them, are still classical rules. He was still trying to perfect these rules; and in the best of his music he came as close to perfection as any human being ever has since the world began.
    [ORCH: Beethoven - Egmont Overture]

    • Pipibug开了一个好头,我们身处北美,不仅要盯着欧洲那些老古董,还应该介绍一些北美的音乐大师,这里是介绍伯恩斯坦的文章
      本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛(ZT)传奇音乐家——雷昂纳德·伯恩斯坦
      ●陈胜海


        今年是著名的音乐家雷昂纳德·伯恩斯坦逝世整十周年。德国DG唱片公司不失时机地出版了伯恩斯坦纪念专集。对于世界乐迷们来说,伯恩斯坦无疑是最具传奇色彩的音乐家,也是最独具一格的人物,因为在他身上同时拥有3种惊世之才——指挥家、作曲家和钢琴家。虽然我们不难找出同时具有这3种才能的人,但是能像伯恩斯坦那样把这3样“玩儿”得都如此到位的,恐怕是绝无仅有,也正是因为如此,他才如此受人钦佩和崇敬。
        伦纳德·伯恩斯坦于1918年出生于美国马萨诸塞州的劳伦斯。他早年曾就学于美国的哈佛大学,以后又转入了美国著名的科蒂斯音乐学院。在校期间,他曾跟随美国著名作曲家和音乐理论家瓦尔特·辟斯顿学习作曲,并跟随著名的美籍匈裔指挥大师菲里茨·赖纳学习指挥。1940年,伯思斯坦来到了著名指挥大师库谢维茨基在波士顿坦格伍德举办的音乐培训学校中,成为这位大师的学生。两年后,即1942年,伯恩斯坦便在波士顿交响乐团开办的伯克郡音乐中心中担任了库谢维茨基的助手,从此便开始了他的指挥生涯。在一个偶然的机遇里,伯恩斯坦被当时担任纽约爱乐乐团常任指挥的大指挥家罗津斯基发现,并被推荐担当了这个著名乐团的助理指挥。1943年,年仅25岁的伯恩斯坦在一个重要的音乐会上,代替了因生病而不能上场指挥的布鲁诺·瓦尔特出场指挥,取得了很大的成功。从此,伯恩斯坦一举成名,成为当时美国最有前途的青年指挥家。1945年至1948年,伯恩斯坦在纽约市立交响乐团中担任了3年的常任指挥,这期间他曾大胆地指挥乐队演奏了一批新曲目。1958年,伯恩斯坦从大指挥家米特罗普洛斯的手中接过了纽约爱乐乐团常任指挥的指挥棒,成为此后领导该乐团近30年的指挥。
        伯恩斯坦在自己极其壮观的指挥生涯中,还曾担任过世界许多著名交响乐团和歌剧院的客席指挥,其中包括维也纳爱乐乐团、伦敦爱乐乐团、以色列爱乐乐团、伦敦交响乐团、巴黎管弦乐团、斯卡拉歌剧院、大都会歌剧院和维也纳国立歌剧院等等。
        伯恩斯坦是一位极其爱好和平的、富有正义感的艺术家,无论是在战争时期还是在战后出现的冷战时期,他都表现出了支持人类和平事业的坚定立场。在第二次世界大战中,他曾积极地加入到反法西斯斗争的行列中,为支援盟军而举行了多次义演,而当战争结束以后,他又为加速人们的互相理解和团结繁忙地奔走着。他为呼吁削减核武器而举行盛大的音乐会,并在音乐会上指挥了马勒的《复活交响曲》。而当东西方冷战结束后,他又为庆祝开放柏林墙、两德实现统一而进行了举世瞩目的音乐会,并抱病指挥了由世界几个著名交响乐团联合演出的贝多芬《第九交响曲》。这次盛大而又意义深远的活动,使得晚年的伯恩斯坦再一次获得了世人的无限尊敬,同时也使他在辉煌的指挥生涯的晚期,又平添一道亮丽的彩虹。
        生活中的伯恩斯坦既活泼随和又富有幽默感。他在指挥乐队排练时,从来不像托斯卡尼尼和卡拉扬那样威严和凛然不可侵犯,而总是在一种轻松、自然、幽默和民主的气氛中与大家一起工作。伯思斯坦还是一位十分追求新意的指挥家,他在指挥时从来不过分地遵守传统,而总是在继承传统的基础上来最大限度地发挥自己身上鲜明的个性。他在指挥时不但有着深刻的音乐理解力,而且还有着热烈饱满的激情,他能将内在的丰富感情和多彩的艺术想象力十分恰当地表现在乐曲的演绎上。这些突出的特点,使得他指挥演奏出来的音乐具有着十分新鲜的活力和变化丰富的色彩与内容。
        伯恩斯坦的指挥动作幅度相当大,而且非常随意,被人们形容为“具有舞蹈般的‘舞姿’效果”,然而他的指挥却能够给人带来一种极强的音乐韵律感,甚至有时仅仅从他的动作上就已经能够感受到音乐中的动人美感。而他的指挥不仅有外在的美感,也有内在而深刻的音乐表现力,正像有的评论家所指出的那样:“伯恩斯坦的指挥既有着外表华丽绚烂的效果,又有着内心沉稳和敏锐的个性。”
        伯恩斯坦不但是20世纪中的伟大指挥家,而且也是现代著名的美国作曲家。早在他青年时代跟随美国近代作曲大师辟斯顿学习时期,就已经是一个非常富有才华的作曲家了。在以后的几十年里,伯恩斯坦从繁忙的指挥活动中抽出时间,创作出了大量有价值的音乐作品,在这些作品中,《耶利米交响曲》、舞剧《自由的幻想》、音乐剧《老实人》、《西区故事》、交响曲《焦虑的年代》等作品是其代表作品。他还是一位了不起的钢琴家,他在演出中经常三者兼顾,边弹钢琴边指挥乐队演奏自己的作品。
        伯恩斯坦是20世纪中最受人们尊敬和崇拜的音乐家之一,他的天才、他的技艺、他的风格和他的为人,无不在人们的心中留下了深刻的印象。纽约爱乐乐团于1969年将他封为“终身桂冠指挥家”,在他生命的最后一段时期中,他经常从百忙的创作工作中抽出时间来继续从事指挥活动。在他的生命结束的前一年,他还不顾自己的繁忙和劳累,指挥了为纪念卡拉扬逝世而举行的音乐会,没想到事隔一年之后,这位20世纪的音乐巨人,也紧随着卡拉扬撒手而去了。人们再也不能在现场亲耳聆听他指挥的音乐和观看他指挥时的英姿了,所幸的是,现代录音技术真实地记录了那些激动人心的瞬间,这些录音将继续流传于世,这恐怕是我们这些现代爱乐人最大的欣慰。


      以下是伯恩斯坦的传记:更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
      • 1953年,伯恩斯坦应米兰的斯卡拉歌剧院的邀请,为玛丽 亚·卡拉斯主唱的歌剧《美狄亚》担任客座指挥。(ZT), 维亚托斯拉夫·李赫特(Sviatoslav Richter)┄钢琴家 也是榜上有名,哈哈。
        本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛在一次晚餐会上,卡拉斯坦白地:告诉我,莱尼,你是否是同性恋?伯恩斯坦沉默不语,卡拉斯满怀遗憾地说:为什么漂亮男子都是同性恋者?

        ---------------------------------------------------


        同性恋者往往被认为具有超群的音乐细胞,人们不难从柴可夫 斯基、圣桑、布列顿和凯奇等人身上,看到同性恋者对世界音乐的贡献。除此之外,古典音乐歌唱家和演奏家中,也不乏同性恋佼佼 者。

        彼得·佩尔斯(Peter Pears)-男高音

          彼得·佩尔斯的名字总是和英国著名作曲家本杰明·布列顿相 提并论。两人于1934年在英国广播公司的演播室初次相遇,不 久开始了长达四十年的世纪之恋。布列顿为布列顿的嗓音量体裁衣, 创作了《彼得·格拉姆》、《仲夏夜之梦》、《比利·伯德》和 《魂断威尼斯》等歌剧以及许多艺术歌曲。1976年,布列顿躺 在佩尔斯的怀中与世长辞。十年后,佩尔斯去世,被葬在布列顿的 墓旁。

          DECCA公司录制了佩尔斯主唱的布列顿歌剧,至今仍然是 经典录音。此外,两人还合作录制了一些艺术歌曲,由布列顿担任 钢琴伴奏,其中包括为米开朗基罗的同性爱情诗歌谱写的歌曲。



        塞格·雷美舍夫(Sergei Lemeshev)┄男高音

          雷美舍夫于1925年毕业于莫斯科音乐学院,后来加入著名 的波尔肖伊剧院,不久成为苏联最著名的男高音歌唱家。雷美舍夫 以演唱俄国歌剧为主,在歌唱中并重激情与细节,留下了许多珍贵 录音。



        第米特里·米特罗波罗斯(Dimitri Mitropoulos)-指挥

          米特罗波罗斯出生于希腊雅典,曾经在柏林师承布索尼,后来曾 担任柏林歌剧院、巴黎交响乐团、波士顿交响乐团和明尼苏达交响 乐团指挥,1949年至1958年间担任纽约爱乐乐团的指挥。

          米特罗波罗斯的指挥风格外向热情,动作幅度较大,对伯恩斯坦的影响很深。在众多的作曲家中,他尤其钟爱马勒。1960年, 他在米兰排练马勒的《第三交响曲》时因心肌梗塞而去世。

          米特罗波罗斯指挥的斯特拉文斯基和肖斯塔科维奇的作品由索 尼和Pearl等唱片公司发行。



        莱昂纳德·伯恩斯坦(Leonard Bernstein)-指挥

          伯恩斯坦是位杰出的作曲家、钢琴家、指挥和音乐教育家,最 著名的作品为爵士歌剧《西区故事》。虽然他曾经结婚和生儿育女, 但同性恋的风流韵事贯穿着其繁忙的音乐生涯,在晚年时甚至为与 男秘书同居而离开了妻子。

          1953年,伯恩斯坦应米兰的斯卡拉歌剧院的邀请,为玛丽 亚·卡拉斯主唱的歌剧《美狄亚》担任客座指挥。在一次晚餐会上, 卡拉斯坦白地问:“告诉我,莱尼,你是否是同性恋?”见伯恩斯 坦沉默不语,卡拉斯满怀遗憾地说:“为什么漂亮男子都是同性恋 者?”

          伯恩斯坦指挥的曲目非常广泛,从莫扎特到巴托克都有涉及, 索尼公司和德意志唱片公司(DG)发行了伯恩斯坦的绝大多数录 音。他录制的勃拉姆斯和马勒的交响曲全集是同类作品中的佳作。



        弗拉基米尔·霍洛维茨(Vladimir Horowitz)┄钢琴家

          霍洛维茨是本世纪最伟大的钢琴家之一,被誉为“最后的浪 漫”,其指法之高超令人叹为观止。虽然他曾与著名指挥托斯卡尼 尼的女儿成婚,但其同性恋情和喜穿女装的癖好在纽约音乐家的同 性恋圈子中人所尽知。

          霍洛维茨曾说过:“钢琴家只有三类,一类是犹太人钢琴家, 一类是同性恋钢琴家,其他的都是蹩脚钢琴家。”霍洛维茨并不具 有犹太人血统,而且向来以一代宗师自居,可见他自认为应该属于 哪类钢琴家。

          RCA和德意志唱片公司(DG)发行了大量霍洛维茨的钢琴 作品,其《莫斯科音乐会》已成为传世之作。



        维亚托斯拉夫·李赫特(Sviatoslav Richter)┄钢琴家

          二战后的冷战时期,只有极少数的西方人士去过苏联,但这些 人都会谈到一位神秘的钢琴家,任何作品在他的指下都显得易如反 掌。1958年,一些西方人士从东欧带来了一张《展览会上的图 画》的钢琴独奏曲唱片。在瓦斯灯泡般的劣质唱片音质掩盖不住一 位钢琴巨人的歌吟。当苏联钢琴家吉列尔斯于五十年代在西方音乐 界刮起旋风而备受媒体青睐时,他的反应是:“你们等着听李赫特 吧。”六十年代初,李赫特访美演出的成功促使隐迹多年的霍洛维 茨重返音乐厅。目中无人的霍洛维茨甚至说,在众多同行中,只有李赫特令他怀有无限的敬意和仰慕。确实,李赫特以高超的技巧, 将作品的诗意与智慧在水晶般的灿烂音色中表达得淋漓尽致,被称为“现代李斯特”。

          即使在前苏联压抑的政治环境里,李赫特仍然保持着自己的独 立个性。当《日瓦戈医生》的作者帕斯捷尔纳克去世时,他不管当 局的反感,为葬礼上演奏。他从来不隶属于任何唱片公司,经常取 消独奏会,或者随意改编演奏节目,唯有对出场费从不讲究。他拒 绝弹奏贝多芬的《月光奏鸣曲》、《皇帝协奏曲》和拉赫玛尼诺夫 的《第三钢琴协奏曲》等主流作品,因为“别人弹得还不够多 吗”?

          在美国一些规模较大、货色较全的唱片店里,李赫特的唱片数 目可谓最多,但许多是现场录音的盗版。懒于追求名利使这位二十 世纪最伟大的演奏家在晚年时穷困潦倒,只能留宿在巴黎的廉价旅 馆。

          从巴赫至巴托克,从亨德尔至辛德米特,李赫特可谓无坚不摧。他将人文气息融入巴赫的《平均律》,在肖邦的作品中表现出男子 汉的浪漫与俊朗,敏捷穿越舒曼的繁杂曲径,将勃拉姆斯貌似拖泥 带水的奏明曲演绎出前所未有的博大精深,他弹奏的肖斯塔科维奇的《前奏曲》令作曲家本人痴醉得听破唱片,普罗科菲耶夫则将第 九钢琴奏鸣曲呈献给他。当BBC古典音乐杂志评选出的二十世纪 最伟大的百名演奏家中,名列榜首的就是李赫特(霍洛维茨在钢琴 家中排名第二,克莱本和怀尔德也榜上有名)。

          著名学者赛蒙·卡林斯基在研究论文《俄国的同性恋文学与文化》中,列举了几名苏联同性恋艺术家的名字,其中包括李赫特 (还有雷美舍夫)。



        凡·克莱本(Van Cliburn)┄钢琴家

          凡·克莱本被称为第一位杰出的美国钢琴家。在1962年的 柴可夫斯基音乐节上,作为评委之一的李赫特给所有参赛选手打了零分,唯独给了克莱本满分。克莱本对柴可夫斯基的《第一钢琴协奏曲》的精彩诠释,受到评论界的普遍赞誉。

          几十年来,克莱本一直与同性伴侣同居。五年前,一位前男友宣称克莱本将艾滋病传给了他,一时在媒体闹得沸沸扬扬。

          克莱本的所有录音几乎都为RCA公司发行,其中包括柴可夫斯基、拉赫玛尼诺夫、贝多芬和勃拉姆斯的钢琴协奏曲,以及肖邦 的独奏曲等。



        厄尔·怀尔德(Earl Wilde)

          怀尔德目前是美国卡内基·梅隆大学艺术学院音乐系的名誉教 授。五十年代中期,他与波士顿流行交响乐团合作录制了格什温的 《蓝色狂想曲》和《F大调钢琴协奏曲》(RCA发行),一直被 列为经典录音。除此之外,他在CHANDOS公司录制的拉赫玛 尼诺夫钢琴协奏曲全集,也是同曲目中的极品。



        旺达·兰道乌斯卡(Wanda Landowska)

          在钢琴出现以前,大键琴是最主要的键盘乐器,巴赫著名的 《平均律》等独奏曲,就是为大键琴所作。随着钢琴的出现和完善, 大键琴的独奏地位逐步被埋没,只沦为伴奏乐曲。二十世纪初,兰 道乌斯卡以刚劲清俊的琴声弹奏《郭德堡变奏曲》等曲目,使人们 重新领略到巴赫的原作思想,她也因此被称为“大键琴艺术的复活 者”,同性恋作曲家曼努艾尔·德·法拉和弗朗西斯·普兰克还专 门为她谱写大键琴曲。

          虽然兰道乌斯卡结过婚,但她的同性恋倾向在音乐界并非鲜为 人知。二十世纪初的巴黎有一些女同性恋者举办的文艺沙龙,艺术 界中以娜塔丽·巴涅举办的最为著名,而兰道乌斯卡则是其中的常 客。她收下的弟子中,也以女性为多,而每当一名男弟子加入时, 兰道乌斯卡总会大言不惭地问道:“你肯定是位同性恋者,是吧?”

          兰道斯卡留下的录音中,以巴赫的作品为最多。除了《郭德堡 变奏曲》以外,RCA公司还发行过她演奏的《平均律》全套、《意大利协奏曲》等作品。EMI重新发行了她与梅纽因合作录制 过巴赫的《小提琴和键盘奏鸣曲》。除此之外,她还留下了亨德尔 的大键琴协奏曲和莫扎特的钢琴协奏曲录音。



        娜迪亚·萨勒诺┄索娜伯格(Nadja Solerno-Sonnenberg)

          在当今著名的小提琴家中,萨勒诺┄索娜伯格无疑是最受争议的人物之一。她的琴声飘逸洒脱,舞台风格奔放外露,近似疯癫痴狂,观众们往往容易被她的夸张动作所吸引,而无法全面领略作品的内涵。但她在室内乐录音中,则表现出极度的内敛与镇定。

          1999年,HBO拍摄了纪录片《尽诉弦中》,专门介绍了萨勒诺┄索娜伯格的艺术生涯。片中道明她与一名女性伴侣共同生 活。此片获得奥斯卡最佳纪录片的提名。

          萨勒诺┄索娜伯格的所有录音都为EMI公司发行,其中包括勃拉姆斯、布鲁赫、西贝柳斯的小提琴协奏曲,维瓦尔第的《四季》,以及一些室内乐作品。她录制的肖斯塔科维奇和巴伯的小提琴协奏曲,曾打入美国流行音乐畅销榜,实为古典乐坛的奇罕。小品集《并非一定如此》也深获好评。最近,她刚刚推出三重奏探戈曲集,与马友友等名家一样,开始致力于拓展古典音乐新领域。更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
