精彩书摘

　　《实用高级音乐英语选读（英汉对照本）》：
　　In 1939 Britten and tenor Peter Pears followed their friend, poet W. H. Auden, to America in hopes of avoiding the guns of impending war and finding a public less hostile to new voices in literature and music. Britten and Pears lived in various places in Canada and New York State, while endeavoring to establish American careers. A couple of months after their arrival, Britten wrote to his sister, "I might as well confess it now, that I am seriously consi-
　　dering staying over here permanently... I am certain that North America is the place of the future... there is terrific energy and vitality in the place. "
　　Eventually the picture began to look less rosy. With the outbreak of war, homesickness overcame them, and they returned to England in 1942. Among the works Britten completed during the American sojourn are An American Overture, the overture Canadian Carnival, the song cycle Les Illuminations, the left-hand piano concerto entitled Diversions, the children's opera Paul Bunyan ( with liberetto by Auden) , and the Sinfonia da Requiem.
　　Britten's antiwar position was well known and of long standing, and so his friends thought it odd that he would accept a commission in 1939 from the government of Japan( whose invading armies had already taken over Beijing and several other Chinese cities) for a short symphony or symphonic poem honoring the 2,600th anniversary of the ruling Japanese dynasty. He looked at it as an opportunity to earn a commission while expressing pacifist sentiments. Perhaps he thought the Japanese would not understand what the music was implying.He told a reporter that the Sinfonia da Requiem would be dedicated to the memory of his parents and would concern "my own anti-war conviction". He explained, "I don't believe you can express social or political or economic theories in music, but by coupling new music with well known musical phrases, I think it's possible to get over certain ideas. "
　　The commissioning committee was of course displeased with this strange work, naively critical of their country's actions and linked by its name and the titles of all its movements to Roman Catholic liturgy. Japan paid the agreed fee but never performed the Sinfonia da Requiem. The major works at the anniversary concert were Richard Strauss's Festmusik ( " Festival Music") and Jacques Ibert's Festive Overture. Britten, who thereby was probably saved a
　　good deal of public and official disfavor when Japan later went to war on the side of Germany, was philosophical about the cancellation: " After all, I have had the money and spent it...Anyhow, the publicity of having a work rejected by the Japanese Consulate for being Christian is a wow. " A premiere for the piece was soon arranged for Carnegie Hall.
　　The Sinfonia da Requiem, a work so "personal &intimate;" that Britten felt embarrassment when it was performed, is among his earliest and most successful compositions on a symphonic scale, potent evidence of his skill at integrating private convictions and public musical expression.
　　The opening movement is entitled " Lacrymosa" , named for the portion of the Requiem text whose words mean:"That day of weeping, on which guilty man shall arise from the ashes to be judged! " Pounding drums and writhing string melodies place us immediately within the hellish battlescape familiar from Britten's later War Requiem ( Telarc CD - 80157). Combining ominous menace with dread and sorrow, the music builds to a nightmarish climax that leads without pause to the next movement.
　　" Dies irae" is a symphonic scherzo whose name reminds us of the Requiem text:/'Day of wrath, that day the world shall dissolve into ashes. " The music is to be interpreted, according to biographer and musicologist Donald Mitchell, as "Britten's perception of the 6 Dance of Death' which was overtaking Europe and swallowing up the civilization he prized. " Some of the wind interjections suggest Morse code, and running trumpet figures hint at the out-of-control nature of events once the frenzy of war takes over.
　　With the finale, "Requiem Aeternam" , thoughts of "Eternal Rest" and peace at last find expression. In the wake of the fury and agitation of the preceding movements, the music takes on a sort of benumbed calm. Building and receding waves of sonority prefigure the luminous nature-painting of Britten's opera Peter Grimes, culminating in a radiant climax and a slow,elegiac diminishment to the end.
