給舞台上表演的法國音樂 (托馬/德利伯/歐貝/馬斯奈等法國作曲家)
尼米．賈維 指揮
愛沙尼亞國家交響樂團
在他們的新專輯中, 尼米．賈維和愛沙尼亞國家交響樂團呈現一份令人愉快但是鮮為人知的十九世紀和二十世紀早期的舞台音樂節目. 歐貝(Auber)和波阿迪歐(Boieldieu)的序曲都是為了在巴黎喜歌劇院(Opera Comique)上演的作品, 都是在該時期優秀作品的例子.
來自於雨果(國王尋樂, Le Roi s'amuse)作品的'Scene du bal'和'一首老歌 Vielle Chanson'是德利伯寫於1882年給雨果戲劇的配樂, 該劇在1832年首演, 因為被認為是對當時在位君王路易.菲利浦的詆毀, 在首演後被禁演. 此戲劇後來變成威爾第(弄臣)歌詞劇本的基礎, 最後終於復出並獲得些許成功, 其中德利伯的配樂是一個重要的因素. 馬斯奈的一幕芭蕾舞劇(劍, Espada)在1908年演出, 是這張專輯中年代最近的也是最重要的作品. 此作品是在西班牙譜曲, 很明顯的不只一個靈感是來自於比才的(卡門)(例如: '牌局 The Card Game'和'鬥牛士的遊行 March of the Toreadors'), 但無論是音樂性和樂團配器仍然是純粹的馬斯奈風格.
For their latest album, Neeme Jarvi and his Estonian National Symphony Orchestra present a delightful programme of lesser-known stage music from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The Overtures by Thomas, Auber and Boieldieu were all composed for works staged at the OperaComique in Paris, and are wonderful examples of the period.
The 'Scene du bal' and 'Vieille Chanson' from Le Roi s'amuse were written by Delibes in 1882 as incidental music for Victor Hugo's play, first performed in 1832 but banned after the first performance because it was deemed to be an attack on the reigning monarch, Louis Philippe. The play, which went on to form the basis of the libretto for Verdi's Rigoletto, was eventually revived with some success, with Delibes's score an important factor. Massenet's one-act ballet Espada dates from 1908, and is the most recent – and most substantial – work on the album. Set in Spain, the work clearly owes more than one idea to Bizet's Carmen ('The Card Game' and 'March of the Toreadors' for example), but musically and orchestrally it is pure Massenet.
