Interesting Facts

The Viola d'amore: The Viola d'amore (Viola of Love) is distinguished by its set of main strings plus an additional set of sympathetic strings that vibrate when the bowed strings are played, producing a silvery, shimmering sound. Its prominent inclusion in this trio is highly unusual for the Classical period, suggesting a specific performer or occasion for the composition.
Albrechtsberger's Pedagogical Legacy: Johann Georg Albrechtsberger (1736–1809) was famous in Vienna as the music theorist and composition master who taught Ludwig van Beethoven. His compositions, like these Partitas, reflect his deep understanding of counterpoint and classical form.
Partita Form: In the Classical era, the Partita often functioned similarly to a Divertimento or Serenade—a light, entertaining multi-movement work intended for social gatherings or chamber performance.

Áttekintés

Fedezze fel a korai bécsi klasszicizmus egyedi hangzásvilágát Johann Georg Albrechtsberger Due partite (Két partitúra) című művével. Ez a partitúra, amelyet az Editio Musica Budapest (EMB) adott ki a speciális Musica Rinata sorozatban, egy lenyűgöző triót tartalmaz, amely szokatlan hangszer-összeállításra íródott: hegedűre, viola d'amore-ra és csellóra. A kottát Gábry György szakértő módon szerkesztette.

A Viola d'amore – egy barokk és klasszikus vonós hangszer rezonáló húrokkal – használata gazdag, rezonáns és gyakran éteri minőséget kölcsönöz ennek a két Partitának. Ez a kiadás elengedhetetlen a kamarazenészek, vonósok és zenetörténészek számára, akik ritka, magas színvonalú repertoárt keresnek.

Érdekességek

A Viola d'amore: A Viola d'amore (a szerelem brácsája) fő húrjain kívül további rezonáló húrokat is tartalmaz, amelyek csillogó hangzást kölcsönöznek a hangszernek. Ennek a hangszernek a kiemelkedő szerepe ebben a trióban szokatlan a klasszikus korban.
Albrechtsberger pedagógiai öröksége: Johann Georg Albrechtsberger (1736–1809) Bécsben híres volt arról, hogy ő volt Ludwig van Beethoven zeneelmélet és zeneszerzés tanára.
Partita forma: A klasszikus korban a Partita gyakran a Divertimento-hoz vagy Szerenád-hoz hasonlóan működött – könnyed, szórakoztató, több tételből álló mű volt, amelyet társasági összejövetelekre vagy kamara-előadásokra szántak.
