词条 | Symphony No. 2 (Szymanowski) |
释义 |
FormThe symphony is supposed to show off the composer's prowess as a contrapuntalist. The work unconventional for its time, is in two movements and begins in a typical Szymanowski manner (also with a similarity to Scriabin) with a violin solo:[1] 1. Allegro moderato — GraziosoThe first movement in B flat major has a passionate character to it.[2]2. Tema — Variazioni — Fuga The second movement in which Reger is explicitly invoked, is almost a self-contained movement with its own introduction. It consists of a theme and five variations. It is playful, festive and dance-like. The Scherzo itself is a three-part structure based not only on the variation theme but also on the 1st movement's solo violin theme. The movement ends with a sixth variation followed by a fugue. Its model is probably the fugal finale of Strauss' Sinfonia domestica. Each subject in the fugue proves to be derived from earlier themes.[1][2] InstrumentationSzymanowski scored his symphony for a large orchestra consisting of standard instruments:[3] {{col-begin}}{{col-break}}
