雲端音樂盒：《梁山伯與祝英台》魏靖儀/小提琴 何占豪、陳鋼/曲 瞿春泉/改編 (The Butterfly Lovers)

本曲以家喻戶曉的故事「梁祝」為題材，樂曲以越劇中部分曲調為題材譜寫而成，描寫故事中幾段具代表性的劇情，共可分為呈示部、展開部、再現部三個段落。 第一段呈示部： 樂曲以優美的旋律揭開帷幕，呈現了風光明媚、花香鳥語的景色，接著以梁山伯與祝英台草橋亭畔結拜的情景為開頭，再到之後兩人同窗共讀的美好時光，最後結束於長亭相送的分離場景。 第二段展開部： 首先以激烈的旋律象徵封建的勢力，引出獨奏的散板，描寫了祝英台在婚約下的惴惴不安與痛苦，在與封建的主題相互交會之後，逐漸形成激烈的抗婚場景。之後樂曲轉入慢板，是梁祝二人樓台相會、互訴衷情的情景。最後音樂急轉直下，以京劇倒板和越劇囂板的緊拉慢唱，依序演繹了山伯臨終，英台哭靈、投墳等一連串的情景。 第三段再現部： 藉由第一段的愛情主題再現，描繪了梁祝的化蝶共舞，似是回到最初兩人相會、相識、相知的美好，也不再有其他的枷鎖與阻礙。最後藉由音樂的逐漸消逝將故事收尾。 2024 臺灣國樂團《藝號人物－瞿春泉》音樂會 時間｜2024.11.16 (六) 14:30 地點｜臺灣戲曲中心大表演廳（臺北市士林區文林路751號） ♪指　揮：瞿春泉 ♪小提琴：魏靖儀 ♪演　出：臺灣國樂團 "The Butterfly Lovers" Composed by He Zhan-Hao and Chen Gang; Arr. by Qu Chun-Quan This concerto is inspired by the well-known story of "Liang Zhu" (The Butterfly Lovers), composed using melodies from Yue Opera as its themes. It captures several iconic scenes from the story and is structured into three sections: Exposition, Development, and Recapitulation. Section 1: Exposition The music opens with a serene and melodic introduction, evoking a scene of gentle beauty, with the soft sounds of nature—fragrant blossoms and singing birds. It begins by portraying Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai initial bond as sworn "brothers," then transitions to the joyous time they spent together as classmates. The section concludes with the poignant farewell scene at the pavilion, where the two must part ways. Section 2: Development Opens with intense melodies symbolizing the oppressive forces of feudal tradition, leading into a solo in Sanban (Colla Parte / ad libitum), which conveys Zhu Yingtai's anxiety and distress under the weight of her arranged marriage. The themes of resistance and struggle emerge as the solo interacts with the motifs of feudal power, building up to the climactic scene where she defies the marriage arrangement. The music then goes into Adagio, representing the heartfelt reunion of Liang and Zhu as they pour out their emotions on the balcony. Finally, the mood takes a sudden, dramatic turn, with techniques borrowed from both Daoban (Presto) of Peking opera and Xiaoban (Slow singing with fast accompaniment) of Yue opera; depicting series of scenes including the death of Liang Shanbo, the grieving of Zhu Yingtai and ultimately throwing herself into Liang's grave. Section 3: Recapitulation The love theme from the first section reemerges, signifying Liang and Zhu's transformation into butterflies, dancing together. It evokes their idyllic journey from acquaintance to confidants, now free from all the constraints and obstacles that once stood in their way. The music gently fades out, bringing the story to a gentle close. ♪Conductor: Qu Chun-Quan ♪Violin: William Wei ♪Performance: National Chinese Orchestra Taiwan (NCO) #國立傳統藝術中心 #臺灣國樂團 #雲端音樂盒 #藝號人物 #瞿春泉 #更多NCO好聲音 ‪@ncftanco‬
