20世纪歌剧巡礼——勋伯格《摩西与亚伦》

An overview of 20^(th)-century opera: Arnold Schoenberg's Moses and Aron

【歌剧内容】希伯莱首领摩西和哥哥亚伦本着上帝的旨意进行布道,摩西注重的是内心感受,注重精神的交流,亚伦却注重实物的崇拜。在摩西去西奈山接受"十戒"的时候,亚伦让希伯莱民众脱下手上的金饰,铸成金牛让民众膜拜,等摩西从西奈山回来后,看见民众"拜物"感到异常愤怒,他毁掉金牛,让民众重新学会用精神和上帝交流。口管普契尼的歌剧在世界各地受人欢迎,尽管维也纳的轻歌剧继续以甜腻悦耳的歌声吸引着大众的兴趣。但在传统的、严肃的音乐领域里来说。

The unfinished Muses and Aaron is a profound work emblematic of 20^(th)-entury musical expressionism.With both the script and libretto written by Schoenberg himself,it is regrettable that only the music for the first two acts was completed.The philosophical approach and serious plot make the opera a great challenge to perform.However,this opera attests to the important tact that every artist is an individual And it is exactly because of such individualism that Moses und Aron is recognized as an epochmaking masterpiece.
