靜默之聲：蕭士塔高維契與他的十五首弦樂四重奏

Music for Silenced Voices: Shostakovich and His FifteenQuartets

de 溫蒂・蕾瑟 ...

Traducido por 朱得嘉 ...

溫蒂．蕾瑟，一位評論界寧靜的巨人，最近將她廣袤無垠的好奇心轉向一位被上了枷鎖的天才。《靜默之聲》是她以十五首弦樂四重奏為框架寫成的傳記。蕾瑟的出發點是，弦樂四重奏是蕭士塔高維契最發自內心的音樂——正如如他的遺孀所說，它們記錄著「他靈魂故事的日記」——也是我們通往作曲家內心世界的最佳途徑。——《句號網》，卡萊爾（Alli Carlisle）在此之前，絕大部份關於蕭士塔高維契的書不是聚焦在他的交響曲和歌劇，就是他和他所身處的政權之間的關係，或者兩者兼有，因為這些大型作品正是他最備受關注，有時則是遭到蘇聯政權譴責的作品。本書帶我們從後門——他的十五首弦樂四重奏——一窺蕭士塔高維契。他的遺孀認為這些作品是「他靈魂故事的日記」。靜默和聲音有很多種，包括史達林時期大膽的作家、藝術家和音樂家的政治性噤聲；蕭士塔高維契的歌劇的失聲（他轉向弦樂四重奏前被迫放棄的形式）；還有他死去的摯友的死寂之聲 ...
