前東京愛樂的海外公關部部長為古典樂新手寫的入門聖經! 清楚介紹古典樂的起源、演進歷史與重要的音樂家 讓你不再霧煞煞,開始享受古典樂的絕妙之作 音樂是世界共通的語言,而古典樂的魅力更是歷久彌新,對現代人來說,提到西方古典樂,幾乎直接與18-19世紀的古典樂派、浪漫樂派的莫札特、貝多芬、舒伯特、蕭邦等人畫上等號,但廣義來說,古典樂可追溯到兩千年前,當時古希臘人就已將音樂定義為一門學問,也曾被納入奧林匹克的藝術競賽。 從數學家畢達哥拉斯創造音階,成為西洋音樂的基礎原理後,樂器與音樂千年來已發展出許多形式,但早期的音樂只為宗教服務,是歌劇與舞蹈的配角,到了18世紀後半,演奏交響曲的管弦樂團才逐漸成為主角大放光芒,而譜寫出偉大作品的作曲家們也因此名垂青史。 古典樂潮能席捲全世界,不僅因為天才音樂家輩出,也和工業革命、啟蒙運動等社會思潮有關。例如樂器技術的革新與大量生產讓更多人能接觸此技藝;市民權利的普及讓音樂會不僅限於上流階級才能欣賞,音樂家也能擺脫貴族僕役的束縛自由創作;交通網路的拓展讓演奏家的舞台更寬廣等。可見古典樂的發展與西方文明的進步密不可分。 作者旁徵博引,從古典樂的歷史、流派、各種樂器的特色談到重要的音樂家與其作品、生平,更佐以豐富的照片、畫作,讓人伴隨著世界史認識古典樂之豐富內涵與精采故事。 出版社 麥浩斯 (城邦)
