奧芬巴哈:6首雙大提琴二重奏
安．嘉絲提妮爾 & 澤維爾．菲利普 大提琴
奧芬巴哈(1819~80)寫過大提琴音樂? 有人知道嗎?
這是真的, 人們經常會忘掉這位未來會創造出(歡樂的巴黎人)與(天堂與地獄)的作曲家也是位第一流的大提琴名家. 1833~34年在他短暫的留在巴黎音樂學院上奧利維爾·查爾斯·瓦斯林(Olivier-Charles Vaslin)的課之前, 他在德國拜約瑟夫.亞歷山大(Joseph Alexander)和伯恩哈德·布魯爾(Bernhard Breuer)為師. 在他早期巴黎生活的時期, 奧芬巴哈靠在沙龍和首都的幾個劇院和管弦樂團的演奏而成名(包含喜歌劇,一個不可替代的關注點), 並讓他被暱稱為’拉大提琴的李斯特’.
他的大提琴二重奏音樂訓練課程是在1839到1885年之間發表, 按照難易程度分成六冊(作品49到54號), 標示著字母A到F. 這些令人驚訝的作品顯示出他經常如惡魔般的精湛技巧, 但也同時富有詩意.
大提琴家澤維爾．菲利普和安．嘉絲提妮爾選擇其中的六首, 從字母C,E,和F一起來做首次錄音, 這真是耀眼名家相遇的組合!

Jacques Offenbach (1819-80) wrote music for cello? Who knew?
Yes, it's sometimes forgotten that the future creator of La Vie parisienne and Orphee aux Enfers was a first-rate virtuoso on the instrument. He studied it in Germany with Joseph Alexander and Bernhard Breuer, before a brief stint in Olivier-Charles Vaslin's class at the Paris Conservatoire in 1833-34. Nicknamed the ‘Liszt of the cello' during his early Parisian years, Offenbach made a name for himself in the salons and played in the orchestras of several of the capital's theatres, including the Opera-Comique – an irreplaceable observation post!
His Cours methodique de duos pour deux violoncelles (Methodical tutor of duos for two cellos) was published between 1839 and 1855, divided into six volumes (opp.49 to 54) of increasing difficulty, from letter A to letter F. These astonishing pieces show another side of Offenbach, often diabolically virtuosic, yet also intensely poetic.
Xavier Phillips and Anne Gastinel have selected six of them, from the letters C, E and F, for their very first recording together. A dazzling encounter!
