II. 背景知识
1. 施特劳斯父子
维也纳华尔兹(Wiener Walzer)和施特劳斯父子维也纳华尔兹,这种源于四分之三拍节奏民间舞蹈的乐曲,经过约翰施特劳斯父子的发展和创新,如今成了维也纳舞曲的象征。
父亲约翰施特劳斯(Johann Strauss, Vater, 1804.3.14.-1845.9.25.)以前只是一家乐团里的中提琴演奏者。一八二五年,他自己创建了一个舞会乐队,并且在短短几年内使其成为一个具有相当规模的乐团。他先后率领乐团访问了德国、巴黎和伦敦,一八三五年成为宫廷舞会首席指挥。他的作品中最著名的莫过于《拉德斯基进行曲》。这首颂扬奥匈帝国常胜将军的乐曲,作为维也纳新年音乐会的最后一个保留曲目,传播到全世界亿万百姓的家中。
青出于蓝而胜于蓝。音乐世家的长子约翰施特劳斯十九岁那年就自己成立了乐团。二十四岁的约翰施特劳斯继承了父亲的著名乐团,并漫游了半个欧洲和美国。一八六三年,约翰 施特劳斯已经成为维也纳宫廷舞会的指挥。在这位华尔兹之王的四百多首华尔兹舞曲中,最著名当然是属他一八六七年创作的《蓝色的多瑙河》,这首舞曲甚至被人称为奥地利更受人欢迎的“ 国歌"。
2. 莫扎特
1756年1月27日,莫扎特出生于奥地利的萨尔斯堡一个宫廷乐师之家。他很小就显露出极高的音乐天赋,在父亲的教导下学习音乐。从1762年起,在父亲的带领下,6岁的莫扎特和10岁的姐姐安娜开始了漫游整个欧洲大陆的旅行演出。他们到过欧洲许多地方,所到之处无不引起巨大的轰动!在奥地利国都维也纳,他们被皇帝请进王宫进行表演。
1772年,16岁的莫扎特终于结束了长达10年之久的漫游生活,回到自己的家乡萨尔斯堡,在大主教的宫廷乐队里担任首席乐师。由于不满主教对他的严厉管束,这段不稳定的雇佣关系终于在1781年结束,他毅然决定独立自主,前往维也纳定居,走上艰难的自由音乐家道路。
莫扎特写作之轻松与神速使他的同时代人和后辈都把他看作是无师自通、不学而成的天才,纵观他的一生,除了孩提时期受到父亲的严格教诲外,的确从未得到过正式的教师指导。天才是不容否认的,但人们往往因此而忽略了天才也离不开刻苦与勤奋。莫扎特曾说:“人们以为我的艺术得来全不费功夫。实际上,没有人会像我一样花这么多时间和思考来从事作曲;没有一位名家的作品我不是辛勤地研究了许多次。
3. 爵士乐
爵士乐(jazz)是美国音乐的一种,开始于20世纪20年代,这是一种具有奇特节奏和非洲和声色彩的音乐形式,由早期的拉格泰姆(ragtime)、蓝调(blues)吸取了营养,发展到后来的比波普、自由爵士、现代爵士。它走过了一段令人惊喜而富有朝气的旅程。它的自由的即兴风格,结合黑人音乐家那天生的丰富节奏感,由此产生了这种微妙而无法准确记谱的美妙音乐。
4. 古典音乐
古典音乐是指那些从巴洛克时期(1600-1750)开始一直到20世纪早期,在欧洲文化传统背景下创作的音乐,它有别于通俗音乐和民族音乐,具有永恒的意义。大约从1600年开始,欧洲作曲家开始创作早期音乐,这也就是古典音乐的开端。事实上,很多西方古典音乐最早都是来自于为宗教仪式和庆典而写的音乐。
5. 蓝调
蓝调(Blues)为爵士、摇滚及福音歌曲(Gospel)的老祖宗,原本只是美国早期黑奴抒发心情时所吟唱的12小节曲式,演唱或演奏时大量蓝调音(Blue Notes)的应用,使得音乐上充满了压抑及不和谐的感觉,这种音乐听起来十分忧郁(Blue)。但就是这么一股〝反骨〞气息,使得它后来在叛逆的摇滚乐中发扬光大。蓝调以歌曲直接陈述内心想法的表现方式,与当时白人社会的音乐截然不同。
6. 流行音乐
流行音乐是20世纪最重要的艺术形式之一,而在流行音乐领域影响最广的则当属流行演唱。流行演唱自流行音乐诞生以来,它便显示出了蓬勃的生机,经过近百年的发展,如今已自成一派,在我国它已成为和美声唱法、民族唱法相抗衡的重要演唱方法之一。
7. 歌剧
歌剧一种以歌唱为主,并综合以器乐、诗歌、舞蹈等艺术为一体的戏剧形式。歌剧是西洋音乐舞台上最重要的综合艺术形式。西洋歌剧的故乡是意大利,第一部歌剧《达芙妮》(佛罗伦萨作曲家培里创作于1597年)在那里产生。中国宋元以来形成的各种戏曲,也有歌剧的性质。五四以后特别是延安时期,音乐工作者开始尝试借鉴西洋歌剧的创作方式来创作具有中国特色的歌剧.
8. 摇滚
摇滚乐是黑人节奏布鲁斯和白人乡村音乐相融合的一种音乐形式,它是以吉它、贝司、鼓为主,加上大功效的音响和诸多效果器来表现音乐的形式;它分为布鲁斯(Blues)、摇滚(Rock and Roll)、重金属(Heavy Metal)、朋克(Punk)、放克(Funk)、雷鬼(Reggae)、说唱乐(Rap)等等。 摇滚通过音乐来反大众化的东西。
9. 电子音乐
电子音乐,指运用电子方法产生和修饰的音乐。对于管弦乐队的传统乐器有限音色的不满足是产生电子音乐的最初动力。作曲家可以十分方便地控制音响的音高、时值、力度和音色等各种因素,这样就使现场演奏电子音乐作品成为可能。新一代电子音乐家不仅用计算机控制电子音响合成器,完成音乐作品,还用计算机进行音乐风格分析、辅助音乐教学,甚至自动作曲。
