講談「源平盛衰記」より「箙の梅」 馬場 光陽
Просмотров 8072 года назад
講談 「源平盛衰記」より「箙の梅」 演者 : 馬場 光陽 馬場光陽は昭和期に活躍した講釈師。明治29年12月、愛知県生まれ。大正9年、4代目宝井馬琴に弟子入りし、のち宝井琴松、琴柳を名乗る。昭和3年、馬琴没後は初代神田山陽に仕え、琴陽、昭和9年に神田光陽に改名。 戦後は一旦廃業するものの、その才を惜しむ声を受けて昭和41年、はじめて馬場光陽を名乗って復帰。軍談ものと呼ばれるジャンルの王道を聴かせ、ファンを唸らせた。昭和51年没。 太閤記をはじめ戦国時代の話も得意であったが、源平合戦も十八番。倶利伽羅峠の戦い前後の血沸き肉躍る展開と武士の風流を描いた「箙(えびら)の梅」は、21世紀を生きる若い方々にもぜひ聴いて頂きたい名高座である。

落語「藪入り」 三代目 三遊亭金馬
Просмотров 2,7 тыс.3 года назад
三代目 三遊亭金馬(1894年10月25日 - 1964年11月8日)は、昭和の落語界を代表する名人。 東京の本所(現在の東京都墨田区本所)に生まれ、19の時に初代三遊亭圓歌に入門。当時の寄席は歴史に名を残す名人が居並ぶ百花繚乱の時代で、若き日の金馬は大きな影響を受ける。 その後、金馬自身も芸に磨きをかけ、数々のネタで寄席を沸かすと、さらにレコードやラジオにも進出し、その名は忽ち全国的なものとなった。 金馬は古典から新作まで膨大なネタを持ち、学者顔負けの知識が詰まった枕、豪快な語り口、繊細な人物描写など、玄人も唸らせる超一流の至芸として、現在も高く評価されている。 さて、この「藪入り」は、前回紹介した「居酒屋」と並ぶ金馬の十八番。「居酒屋」がくすぐり一辺倒だったのに対し、「藪入り」は親子の情愛と短い間にしか逢えない切なさが聞きどころで、思わずジーンとしてしまう。

    Questa registrazione, al pari di altre dello stesso periodo con Karajan sul podio, entra di diritto nella storia del disco, sia per il livello artistico che possiamo definire eccelso, sia per la qualità della ripresa sonora. E' opportuno ricordare il produttore Otto Gerdes (ottimo direttore d'orchestra egli stesso), il direttore dell'incisione Hans Weber e l'ingegnere del suono Gunther Hermanns, prediletto da Karajan. E' facile riconoscere un'agogica e una dinamica semplicemente splendide, che realizzano perfettamente quanto scritto in partitura ed ovviamente anche molto di ciò che non può essere scritto...........

    Furtwangler gives meaning to the symphony, it isn't just music, it's a great ongoing drama. The rest's breathe with the life from the notes that went before it. There's a tumbling of energy from one note to the next, all making perfect, thrilling sense. This performance is the mind and soul of Brahms as he conceived it.

Like always with him he has a deep understanding of the structure, the flow, the dramaturgy of a piece and a marvellous ability to transfer his ideas via the orchestra to the listener. Every measure, every note has a meaning. Everything counts. Just incredible intense. Thank you for sharing!

    转:情况刚好与肯普夫相反,立体声表现比 mono 版的巴克豪斯,这张1958年录音的Decca 版也相当值得推崇。虽然录音时已高龄74,但无论情绪掌握、速度控制都未见迟滞,他以对乐曲的高度理解为基础,充满自信地将音乐“纯化”,没有过多累赘的情感。第一乐章将持续的慢板、二二拍子的压抑感诠释得相当好,而左手三连音的流动性与均匀度也很稳,踏瓣的运用也相当节制。偏向理性,幻想的况味较淡。第二乐章显然选择较接近第一乐章的情绪,跳音并不明显因此表情显得相当庄严。第三乐章的速度与热情虽然比不上他前两次的单音版,但依然感觉得到巴克豪斯的咄咄逼人,“键盘狮王”果然拥有惊人的弹奏力道。但快速音符的弹奏一开始显得有点紊乱,每段乐句收尾也不够精致是缺点。不过巴克豪斯恢弘的气魄!狂风暴雨般的表现!值得一听。

    'Furwangler's final wartime concert in Berlin. It would be two and a half years before he made music in Berlin again. It stands not only as the most exacting, extraordinary performance of a piece of symphonic music by Brahms, but one of the most thrilling orchestral recordings in existence. It is a rare combination of supreme impetuosity, imagination, and control - an unforgettable instance of a score, an ensemble, and a conductor fused into a single expressive entity. It is impossible to hear it without imagining some of the rage and helplessness that Furtwangler must have felt during the final months before Germany's collapse, when all he had known and loved was crumbling about him. Even after repeated playings, this performance leaves one feverish, as well as crushed by the knowledge that the remaining three movements were either not recorded or have not survived.' John Ardoin, The Furwangler Record, 1994
