布拉姆斯 第三 四號交響曲 長野肯特 漢堡愛樂國家管弦樂團 Brahms Symphonies

布拉姆斯:第三,四號交響曲

長野肯特 指揮

漢堡愛樂國家管弦樂團

近期獲得德國什列斯威-霍爾斯坦邦(Schleswig-Holstein)布拉姆斯協會頒發頗具聲望的布拉姆斯獎, 從2015到2025年擔任首席指揮的長野.肯特與漢堡愛樂國家管弦樂團演奏在漢堡出生的作曲家最後的兩件交響曲作品, 並在音樂會中實況錄製.

布拉姆斯的四首交響曲中最具個人特色的是第三號交響曲, 有英雄氣質卻又深受困擾的; 除此之外, 四個樂章都在寧靜中結束. 在第一號交響曲的英雄主義和第二號的田園風格之後, 第三號交響曲透露出布拉姆斯正處於人生的十字路口: 年輕時期的衝勁受到了約束, 氣氛轉偏向對生命與死亡深刻的思考. 緩慢樂章的主題旋律被改編過許多次, 甚至於被法蘭克.辛納屈在(接受我的愛 Take My Love)歌曲中唱過.

Two highly dramatic symphonies by Brahms from Kent Nagano

Philharmonisches Staatsorchester Hamburg

Kent Nagano, conductor

Recently awarded the prestigious Brahms Prize of the Schleswig-Holstein Brahms Society, Kent Nagano and the Hamburg Philharmonic State Orchestra, of which he was principal conductor from 2015 until 2025, perform the last two symphonies by the Hamburg-born

composer, recorded in concert.

The most personal of Johannes Brahms’s four symphonies, the Third is both heroic and deeply troubled; moreover, all four movements end quietly. After the heroism of the First Symphony and the pastoral flavours of the Second, the Third Symphony reveals Brahms at a crossroads: the youthful impulses are now reined in and the mood is more one of

profound reflection on life and death. The theme of the slow movement has been adapted many times and even sung by Frank Sinatra under the title of ‘Take My Love’.

The Fourth Symphony might be described as the most classical of Brahms’s symphonies, not least because of its chaconne finale, a variation form inherited from the

baroque era. Described as an ‘autumn symphony’ or ‘elegiac’, its mood is sometimes tormented and fiery, sometimes harsh and solitary. The culmination of a

genre that cost him so much effort, the Fourth is the last word of Brahms the symphonist; he would never compose another work of this kind.
