華府書友會五月份演講 王瑞博士主講
「歐洲的藝術歌曲」

《華府書友會 - 5/11/2012新聞稿》

歐洲的藝術歌曲(古典歌曲)是簡短的、鋼琴伴奏的獨唱,它需要專業性的聲音,或至少是有聲樂訓練過的歌喉。18世紀後期歐洲的藝術歌曲,曲風藝向已轉離意大利歌劇的複雜性、技巧度及名家演唱的傳統,而朝著更本土的北方風格,有時使用德語的故事和民歌以激潤靈感。1815年到1900年左右,在講德語的歐洲,藝術歌曲的發展已臻極至。

華府書友會五月份的演講中,講者Dr. Ray Squitieri(王瑞博士)將以17世紀一個意大利藝術歌曲的例子為開場白,然後講到藝術歌曲之王佛郎兹·舒伯特(Franz Schubert,1797-1828)的藝術歌曲。在舒伯特短暫但閃閃發光的一生中,他完成了六首交響曲、600多首歌曲,多數都是最優質的藝術精曲。舒氏能將簡單的歌曲轉化成經典的藝術傑作,曲曲動人,曲韻通幽,直接觸動聽眾內心的純潔世界。舒伯特的重要繼任者有:羅伯特·舒曼(Robert Schumann)、強漢尼斯·勃拉姆斯(Johannes Brahms)、雨果·沃爾夫(Hugo Wolf)、高斯塔夫·馬勒(Gustav Mahler) 等。本次講座也將包括這些名家的曲目,以及法國、英國和美國的藝術歌曲,王博士並會指引華府的觀眾學習如何欣賞和解析歐洲的藝術歌曲。

Speaker: Dr. Ray Squitieri

Speech Title: European Art Songs

European classical songs, or art songs, are brief solo vocal pieces with piano accompaniment, generally requiring professional-level voices, or at least singers with technical vocal training. The art song emerged in the late 18th century, as tastes turned away from the artifice and complexity of Italian opera, and the virtuosic singing that it showcased, and toward a more home-grown northern style, sometimes using German-language stories and folk songs for their inspiration. The art song reached its greatest development in German-speaking Europe from 1815 to around 1900.

Our discussion will begin with an example of a 17th century Italian art song, then move to the lieder (songs) of Franz Schubert (1797-1828). In his tragically brief but incandescent life he wrote over 600 songs, many of the highest quality. Schubert took the simple song and turned it into high art--high art that still retained its appeal directly to the listener’s emotions. Schubert’s most important successors in the German tradition were Robert Schumann, Johannes Brahms, Hugo Wolf, and Gustav Mahler. The lecture will include examples from these composers, as well as examples of French art songs, which tend to be atmospheric rather than narrative, and examples of English and American art songs

About the Speaker: Dr. Ray Squitieri sang in the top-line choral groups as Harvard (Harvard Glee Club) and Stanford (Memorial Church Choir). Beginning at around age 44, he had studied voice for about 10 years with a first-rate teacher, David Blackburn, who had many professionals among his students, and many students who later became professionals. Ray also coached with Muriel von Villas and George Peachey in the DC area. He sang in several operas in the DC area (Marriage of Figaro, La Boheme with Opera International; The Desert Song with some group in Virginia), and at the Natchez Mississippi Opera Festival (Don Giovanni, Tales of Hoffman, Carmen, plus several musicals). And for 4 or 5 years, he was bass section leader and soloist with Chevy Chase Presbyterian Church. He has now taught 2 courses at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), The Singing Voice in Opera, Musical, and Song (fall 2011) and The Italian Vocal Tradition (spring 2012).
