Vivaldi: The Four Seasons维瓦尔第:四季
艺术家名:Anne-Sophie Mutter Karajan Wiener Philarmoniker
穆特曾与卡拉扬有过许多次合作演出和录音,这些珍贵的记录亦与他们的知遇之事一同成为古典乐界为人津津乐道的美谈。其中他们共同演奏的巴洛克名作《四季》最广为人知,1987年的演出版本更留下了完整的现场影像。
穆特在录制与卡拉扬及维也纳爱乐合作的《四季》时仅20出头,婴儿肥还没完全退去,就已展现出超脱年龄的大师风范——凌厉激情的运弓、流淌出的音符个个干脆利落,清透圆润,尽显华美之气。当然,其中仍不时流露出年轻人特有的纯真与淳朴,却丝毫不构成弱势,反倒与此曲田园诗般的艺术意境相得益彰。卡拉扬则表现出其一如既往的恢弘霸气,当中又参透一些他晚年特有的细腻与柔情。激昂处大气豪迈,缓和处又优美动人,与维也纳爱乐这一世界顶尖乐团配合得天衣无缝。
这一版《四季》录音或许没有后来新出的一些版本那样技惊四座深不可测,但作为古典乐中最“通俗”,接受度最高的曲目之一,或许这般流畅自然的和美灵动才是《四季》更合适的呈现吧。可以在历来众多版本中脱颖而出,成为许多人眼中的“最佳”版本,肯定是有其出彩之处。卡拉扬和穆特的这版,相比起炫技,更注重平衡与整体性,力求展现出春夏秋冬“各是独立主体又彼此调和一气”的本质。
