Fischer-Dieskau sings Schubert -- "der Lindenbaum"

Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, baritone
Gerald Moore, piano
Filmed in London, May 14, 1959

Der Lindenbaum (The Linden Tree) from the song cycle Winterreise (Winter Journey) by Franz Schubert, on poems by Wilhelm Müller.

The cycle was written in 1827.

Der Lindenbaum

Am Brunnen vor dem Tore
Da steht ein Lindenbaum;
Ich träumt' in seinem Schatten
So manchen süßen Traum.

Ich schnitt in seine Rinde
So manches liebe Wort;
Es zog in Freud' und Leide
Zu ihm mich immer fort.

Ich mußt' auch heute wandern
Vorbei in tiefer Nacht,
Da hab' ich noch im Dunkeln
Die Augen zugemacht.

Und seine Zweige rauschten,
Als riefen sie mir zu:
Komm her zu mir, Geselle,
Hier find'st du deine Ruh' !

Die kalten Winde bliesen
Mir grad' ins Angesicht;
Der Hut flog mir vom Kopfe,
Ich wendete mich nicht.

Nun bin ich manche Stunde
Entfernt von jenem Ort,
Und immer hör' ich's rauschen:
Du fändest Ruhe dort !

The Linden Tree

At wellside, past the ramparts,
there stands a linden tree.
When sleeping in its shadow;
sweet dreams it sent to me.

And in its bark I chiseled
my messages of love:
My pleasures and my sorrows
were welcomed from above.

Today I had to pass it,
well in the depth of night -
and still, in all the darkness,
my eyes closed to its sight.

Its branches bent and rustled,
like calling out to me:
Come here, come here, companion,
your haven I shall be!

The icy winds were blowing,
straight in my face they ground.
The hat tore off my forehead.
I did not turn around.

Away I walked for hours
whence stands the linden tree,
and still I hear it whisp'ring:
You'd find your peace with me!

寫給自己

儘量去做, 要加油. 不行的時候, 要記得放手. 彈琴也好, 唸書也好, 不管別人評價如何, 自己要問心無愧.

you treat people the way you want to be treated.
所以當白目singers/soloist 要來約合伴奏或上課時間, 我會給她們一份非常混亂的行事曆, 在經過縝密的計畫之後. 恩. (千萬記得, 不要惹毛你的伴奏.)

轉念

常在想, 平平都是唸演奏博士, 有些人就可以輕鬆兩三年過去, 博士學位入手, 自己卻要一步一步的這樣死撐過來, 拿一堆非人所能的課, 終究也只是為了那一張紙而已. (當然不說, 用台幣270就可以買到的假博士文憑.) XD.

那我這是在幹麻咧? 才學期1/3就已經爆炸了,真正精采的生活在十月初呀. 這無非只是自己心態上耍賴, 拒絕面對明天又要考個試的拖延藉口, 況且不論報告和演出'們'.... 是說鬼混過去也可以, 可終究是要唸的. 是不至於萌生包袱款款想回家的念頭, 只是手上承載的事情實在不輕. 莫名其妙的衍生出混亂的行事曆, 當初只是簡單的想, 現在不去作, 以後真的沒有機會了. 儘量去學去聽, 試著踏出自己的comfort zone,再下來會怎麼樣, 誰知道呢?

最近承受相當高的壓力, 加上天兵或是白目的事件屢屢不斷, 在琴房遇到老朋友時忍不住一古腦的傾訴出來. 邊講邊看他打出"要冷靜"的手勢, 大笑很多下之後, 回頭繼續練琴去. 晚上還有書要唸哪!
(這學期竟然是我最認真的一個學期了. 哇咧)

阿飄節不是已經過了嗎...

今天在學校的一天, 無意識的啟動自動漂浮程式.

昨天唸seminar的東西唸太晚, 比較Beethoven op.132 和 Bartok no.4&5 String Quartet; 聽完曲子再繼續唸文章, 快早上兩點才睡. 過沒多久又得起床, 只因為八點就要教課. 到後來午餐也吃不下, 一方面是繼續唸進度, 一方面是想睡的意願已經破表直達兩千了.

晚上提早收工, 名知道琴練不完, 可還是要回家唸書. 實驗了新的韓式冷麵,繼續回到桌前攤開音樂史. 相較起seminar, 現在的音樂史簡單多了, 今天是貝多芬晚期風格作品.
這個簡單. 先前剛好翻過, 大量運用對位手法, reminiscence of early period, J.S.Bach & Palestrina, Fugue, 極高或低的音域, 富於旋律, recitative style, 然後一貫的, 動機的發展再發展. 十頁的進度加上譜例, 半小時迅速翻完. 倒是要聽的op.131, 嘿嘿, 整首讓它自己跑過一次也要快40分鐘呀.

就像昨天看的, op.132 mvt.III, 五個樂章中, III 是中心主體, 而且就如title 所說, Lydian mode 開啟了調性的不確定性, 加強各樂章間的調姓變化. 高音域的大提琴音色, 加上教會調式, 的確是具有"治療系" 的特色. 還是趕快唸唸趕快滾上床睡覺吧! 又再神智不清了.

Berg, string quartet op.3

無奈的開了電腦,準備明天seminar要討論的曲子.

"聽完幾次Schoenberg & Berg, 四篇文章要讀,然後討論這兩首曲子對動機的處理手法和相對差異性. 噢, 然後不要忘記馬勒第四號交響曲也是."

很認命的打開譜來聽Berg, op.3 聽到第二頁我就有種衝動想把譜丟了. 寫什麼鬼啦! 怒. (丟筆~~~~) 最好是對著譜聽還都不知道在哪裡. sigh, 情緒完畢, Berg 還是有好聽的曲目. 趕進度去.
