Nonet

Sir Arnold Bax (1883-1953)

An English Composer and Poet

Never, I would never know about their respect to the Great British Composer, Sir Arnold Edward Trevor Bax, on the land I live.

Nonet for woodwinds & strings (in Two Movement)
1. Molto Moderato - Lento, 10:17
2.Allegro - Lento Espressivo, 8:18

Instrumentation
1 Flute, 1 Clarinet, 1 Oboe, 1 Harp, 1 String Quartet, 1 Double Bass

似乎又想起了什麼事
如果這種感覺還是真確

你是不是能告訴我什麼
又深又急，潛流在那海底
在夜裡窸窸窣窣，是什麼

第一主題，憂傷的旋律
你以為你想起了什麼事
再次的唱起，總要提醒你留意
主題的變形

需要的是什麼，難道不是嗎
同樣的反覆和變形
重奏與獨唱，長線與短音
帶有點悲傷的口氣
完整的一個九和弦給你安慰
豎琴引領你進入另一個領域

第二主題，
給你一個溫柔的擁抱作對比
擦弦，漸強，你激動得
留著弓尾留下漸慢的餘韻
漸弱

再唱，叫豎笛別留下餘地
豎琴彈跳的韻律
平靜安和的流水和樅樹的背景
卻總要小調的音階劃過天際
忽明忽暗的晨星

進入慢版之前你是不得安寧
如咒的低音和舞蹈的旋律
浪漫派精巧的設計
尼金斯基，痛苦的 "結婚"

挑動你去回憶，細碎的旋律
你以為是什麼
第一主題，第二主題
是背景，伴奏，交錯，緩慢的
誰交給提琴淡淡的哀傷

你也只剩下這些了
還有什麼
旋律，還是回憶
扯得破碎得無法辨識
飄落，緩慢的，枯黃滿地

深的，黑而暗的
潛流也是停息，海底寧靜
悲傷而死寂

First time, when I listened to the Nonet by Arnold Bax, I gave my greatest respect to this British composer. Next, I tried to find other works he composed, I found his romantic musical language, which evokes the most impressive images in my mind, is one of the most elegant I heard. For this reason, I must now express my best appreciation of Chandos and hyperion, they are both my favorite recording company (I'm not advertising, and they have never paid for me, but for my personal reason, they really possess a large amount of my collections. Indeed, I need to hate them for earning so much money from me).
