La Vida Breve
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

La vida breve (Life is Short, also: The Brief Life) is an opera in two acts by Manuel de Falla to an original Spanish libretto by Carlos Fernández-Shaw. The first performance was given at the Casino Municipale in Nice in 1913.

The complete opera, only an hour in length, is seldom performed today, but its dances are, especially the famous Interlude and Dance, played often at orchestral concerts of Spanish music. Also, the Danse Espagnole, part of the wedding celebrations, is well-known among the violin-playing world as a violin showpiece arranged by Fritz Kreisler. The opera is unusual for having as much purely instrumental as vocal music. Its opening scene effectively portrays a typical morning in the village, with a male chorus of anvil workers plying their trade in the local forge.

Synopsis

The story concerns a beautiful young gypsy, Salud, who is passionately in love with a young man named Paco. She does not know, and Paco does not tell her, that he is already engaged to "una de su clase" (a woman from his own, supposedly more elevated, class).

However, her uncle and her grandmother have discovered this, and they unsuccessfully try to prevent her from crashing her lover's wedding after she learns the truth. When Salud confronts Paco before the astonished bride and the wedding guests, he denies knowing her and, her heart broken, Salud literally drops dead at his feet - in what is said to be the ultimate gesture of contempt for a former lover.

林贝卡 回复 悄悄话 当代古典吉他大师约翰威廉姆斯最新艺术生平介绍


约翰"威廉姆斯是一位痴迷于民间音乐和民族乐器的吉他大师。他精准地掌握不同曲风的美感,不断地探索古典吉他的可能性,出版了80多张专辑,在他理智清晰的弹奏声中,总有一波波难以抵挡的感染力,那种理性中隐含热情的风格,搭载于流行、爵士、古典、电影、现代等音乐类型上,绝对无法在第二位吉他演奏家身上找到。他曾组建过一支专门演奏世界各地民间音乐的乐队——“约翰"威廉姆斯和朋友们”,周游世界各地进行巡回演出并汲取各地民间音乐的精华注入自己的音乐中。

约翰"威廉姆斯John Williams是世界上最负才艺和盛誉的吉他大师之一,他通过在国际性演出中的精彩表现和众多最佳销量的专辑让古典吉他在现代社会中复兴并赋予其个人的风格。早在四十年前,当约翰"威廉姆斯在美国完成了他个人首演后,他即和当时的“哥伦比亚名著”(CBS Masterworks)(现称索尼古典唱片Sony Classical)签定了独家合同。

许多为Sony Classical录制的唱片,包括由约翰"威廉姆斯演奏的维瓦尔第(Vivaldi)的协奏曲和塞维利亚古典吉他演奏会,都成为最热销的专辑。至于最新专辑“魔法盒”(The Magic Box),是威廉姆斯为我们营造的一场讲述非洲不同文化音乐的创造性盛宴。

在他最近的一些精选集中有一张叫《经典威廉姆斯—吉他罗曼史》(Classic Williams – Romance of the Guitar),收录了约翰"威廉姆斯很多最精彩的表演,包括三首新的改编曲目:福莱-帕凡舞曲(Fauré’s Pavane)、西蒙&加芬克儿(Simon & Garfunkel's)的民乐《雄鹰飞去》(El Condor Pasa)和传统的吉他与弦乐罗曼史(Romance for Guitar and String Orchestra)。而他的其他一些作品还包括一张由意大利作曲家莫罗"朱利亚尼(Mauro Giuliani)作曲的十九世纪早期的吉他协奏曲,改编自舒伯特阿贝鸠奈奏鸣曲(Schubert's Arpeggione Sonata)和一张威廉姆斯作曲并担任独奏的唱片——吉他手(The Guitarist)。还有一些新的精选集,像由古巴作曲家莱奥"布劳威尔(Leo Brouwer)作曲的《黑色十日谈》(The Black Decameron);一张和吉他手提摩西"凯恩(Timothy Kain)二重奏的唱片《螳螂与月亮》(The Mantis & the Moon);还有一张为吉他和乐队演奏而重新编写的经典电影主题曲专辑,其中收录了辛德勒的名单(Schindler’s List))和猎鹿人(The Deer Hunter)的主题曲。

威廉姆斯长期与他人合作取得了丰硕的成果,比如安德列"普列文(André Previn)同时,他还和众多乐队组合合作过,像SKY、约翰"威廉姆斯和他的朋友们(John Williams and Friends。此外,他对吉他的天赋促使了很多作曲家为他谱曲,包括斯蒂芬"道奇森(Stephen Dodgson)。威廉姆斯的表演生命力至今仍非常活跃。(摘自网络)
