### 作品与艺术特色
本专辑收录了欣德米特(Paul Hindemith)20世纪30年代的三部管弦乐代表作,展现了作曲家将哲思、宗教与幽默熔于一炉的创作风格:
1. **《画家马蒂斯》交响曲**(1934年):
- 原为同名歌剧的管弦乐选段,以中世纪画家马蒂斯·格吕内瓦尔德的宗教画作为灵感,三个乐章分别对应画作《天使音乐会》《基督下葬》《圣安东尼的诱惑》。
- 音乐以复调织体与克制的浪漫主义旋律交织,如第二乐章“下葬”以低沉弦乐渲染哀婉,第三乐章则用铜管的爆发性音响刻画内心挣扎,体现欣德米特“音乐即理性表达”的美学。
2. **《至美幻景》芭蕾组曲**(1938年):
- 以圣方济各的生平为题材,描绘其“看见至美幻象”的精神体验。
- 组曲融合了巴洛克舞曲元素(如帕萨卡利亚)与现代和声,第二乐章“进行曲与田园曲”通过木管的轻盈旋律与弦乐的醇厚铺垫,营造出神圣而宁静的氛围。
3. **《基于韦伯主题的交响变形曲》**(1938年):
- 颠覆传统“主题变奏”模式,以韦伯的歌剧选段为素材,进行夸张的现代性重构。
- 第二乐章“图兰朵 谐谑曲”以怪诞的节奏和铜管的滑稽音色戏仿普契尼歌剧,第四乐章“进行曲”则以机械性的节拍戏谑古典传统,展现欣德米特少有的幽默一面。
### 乐团演绎与录音评价
- **约翰·内施林的指挥**:
- 在《画家马蒂斯》中,通过细腻的动态控制(如第一乐章弦乐的渐强处理),赋予宗教题材以沉思性;在《交响变形曲》中,则以夸张的速度对比(如谐谑曲的急板段落)突显荒诞感。
- 乐评称其演绎“兼具洞察力与细节把控,让《画家马蒂斯》绽放神性光辉,同时尽情释放变形曲的幽默本质”(《留声机》)。
- **圣保罗交响乐团的表现**:
- 弦乐声部在《至美幻景》中展现丝绒般的音色层次,铜管组在《交响变形曲》中以精准的爆发力制造戏剧反差,整体协作体现“世界级乐团的成熟度”(BBC音乐杂志)。
- BIS的录音技术捕捉到管弦乐的空间感,如《圣安东尼的诱惑》中定音鼓的低频共鸣与木管的高频闪烁形成鲜明声场对比,细节清晰度极佳。
### 专辑意义与乐评亮点
- **风格对比与统一性**:三部作品虽题材迥异(宗教、神话、戏仿),但均以欣德米特标志性的“新古典主义”语言贯穿,展现其从严肃哲思到戏谑解构的创作广度。
- **历史语境**:创作于纳粹统治时期的德国(欣德米特因“现代主义”标签遭打压),《画家马蒂斯》暗含对信仰与艺术自由的隐喻,而《交响变形曲》的幽默则成为一种隐晦的反抗姿态。
- **乐评赞誉**:
- “内施林让欣德米特的理性主义充满人性温度,乐团的音色平衡堪称教科书级别”(《经典今日》)。
- “《交响变形曲》的荒诞性被演绎得淋漓尽致,仿佛听见欣德米特在向传统美学眨眼睛”(《纽约时报》)。
### 总结
这张专辑是理解欣德米特中期创作的绝佳入口:从宗教沉思到世俗狂欢,从结构严谨的复调写作到即兴式的变形实验,内施林与圣保罗交响乐团以精湛的演绎,揭示了作曲家“在秩序中寻找自由”的艺术哲学。无论是古典乐资深爱好者还是现代音乐初探者,均可从中感受欣德米特独特的声响世界。

Conductor – John Neschling
This attractive album featuring the São Paolo Symphony Orchestra led by John Neschling includes three of Hindemith's most popular and appealing orchestral scores, all dating from the mid-'30s. Mathis der Maler, a 1934 symphony made up of three movements the composer incorporated into his opera of the same name, is a work with a mysteriously effective consolidation of seemingly disparate elements; it comes across as austere yet deeply intimate, and radiantly pure yet full of passion and ardor. Nobility is difficult to define in musical terms, but it's a quality that can be applied without reservation to Hindemith's majestic, warmly humane symphony. Nobilissima visione (1938), a suite based on a ballet about St. Francis, inhabits a similar emotional and musical world. It's a lovely, often serene piece, but it doesn't rise to the same transcendent level of inspiration as the earlier work. Symphonic Metamorphosis uses essentially the same harmonic language as the other pieces, but to an entirely different effect. Early in his career the composer was a brash, irreverent iconoclast and he wrote plenty of surreally humorous music, but by this mature phase in his career he was known for his sober rationality rather than for wit. Three of the four movements of Symphonic Metamorphosis, though, burble and erupt with a sense of extravagant whimsy that seems more characteristic of Prokofiev at his goofiest than of Hindemith. It's a wild ride, and terrifically fun. Neschling leads performances of exceptional insight, subtlety, and attention to detail. He makes the Mathis symphony really glow, and he revels in the absurdities of Symphonic Metamorphosis. The playing of the São Paolo Symphony Orchestra is world-class, and its sound is full and polished. The most notable aspects of the performances are the superb balance and the nuanced attention to the shadings of dynamics, which allow orchestral details to shine. Part of the credit for the clarity and lively sound certainly also goes to the excellent work of the engineers of BIS' SACD.
