愛德蒙‧盧布拉與他的歌曲集『玉山』 Edmund Rubra (1901-1986) The Jade Mountain, Op. 116 節譯自唱片解說,原作者不明 愛德蒙‧盧布拉的音樂可以追溯到童年時期聆聽母親在教堂合唱團演唱的經驗。 出身於北安普敦(Northampton)的工人階級家族。 早年學習鋼琴與音樂理論,而且幸運的有一個經營樂器行的叔叔, 這都給他機會可以廣泛的接觸音樂。 慢慢的他的音樂天分將他帶離工人階級的家庭。 他成為Cyril Scott的作曲私淑學生,並且跟隨霍爾斯特(Gustav Holst) 在Reading大學學習。 1921年,他贏得皇家音樂院公開徵選獎學金。 他繼續跟隨霍爾斯特,並偶而接受佛漢威廉士(Vaughan Williams)、 對位法名師R.O. Morris的指導。 Morris對盧布拉著重對位法的寫作風格影響甚深。 盧布拉的音樂特色可以從他十一首交響曲中窺見。 除了劇場音樂之外,他是一個多產並且多面的作曲家。 他對於神秘學與宗教很有興趣,前者可能是受到他的恩師霍爾斯特的影響。 1948,他信奉天主教,並且寫作大量的合唱作品。 這些作品試圖融合亞洲佛教與歐洲天主教的種種元素。 1962年的歌曲集『玉山』(The Jade Mountain), 歌詞取自於Witter Bynner翻譯的唐詩。 選用豎琴做伴奏或許是來自於第二首詩名。 (On Hearing Her Play the Harp) The Jade Mountain, Op. 116 01. A Night Thought on Terrace Tower Far through the night a harp is singing With a sadness of wind an rain in the strings. There’s a solitary lantern, a bugle call And beyond Terrace Tower down goes the moon. Fragrant grasses have changed and faded While still I have been hoping that my old friend would come. There are no more messengers I can send him, Now that the wild geese have turned south. Wêi Chuang 02. On Hearing Her Play the Harp Her hands of white jade by a window of snow Are glimmering on al golden fretted harp An to draw the quick eye of Chou Yü, She touches a wrong note now an then. Li Tüan 03. An Autumn Night Message As I walk in the cool of the autumn night, Thinking of you, singing my poem, I hear a mountain pinecone fall; You also seem to be awake. Wêi Ying-Wu 04. A song of the Southern River Since I married the merchant of Ch’üt’an He has hailed each day to keep his word. Had I thought how regular the tide is, I might rather have chosen a riverboy. Li Yi 05. Farewell to a Japanese Buddhist Priest Bound Homeward You were foreordained t find the source. Now tracing your way – as in a dream There where the sea floats up the sky, You wane from the world in your fragile boat. The water and the moon are as calm as your faith, Fishes and dragons follow your chanting And the eye still watches beyond the horizon The holy light of your single lantern. Ch’len Ch’l -- 有另外一個自己嗎?? 我不知道.. 跟你對話是這麼的有趣 卻又讓我感到悲哀.. 你跟我一樣 都是孤獨的人 你現在在說什麼啊?? 我不是在你旁邊?? 有人傾聽你的心聲 你還在不滿什麼?? 沒有光就沒有影 我會永遠在你身邊.. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 204.111.131.18
