词条 | Wind Nonet (Parry) |
释义 |
BackgroundThe first mention of the composition is in a letter dating from Autumn of 1877 to Parrys then teacher Edward Dannreuther where he referred to the work as "..an experiment...".[2] Parry showed the incomplete composition to Dannreuther on the 21st of December 1877, but did not complete the work until the 31st of December 1877.[2][3] Dibble notes that Parry continued to work on the Nonet into February 1878, and suggests that the composer may have considered having members of the Crystal Palace Orchestra perform it. The reasons for the lack of performance during the composers lifetime and the decision not to publish are unclear, but may be related to the fact that the experimental nature of the work, conceived as a test of the composers ability to score for wind instruments, or the composer may have simply been dissatisfied with the work.[3] InstrumentationThe composition is scored for flute, oboe, cor anglais, 2 clarinets, 2 horns and 2 bassoons. StructureThe composition is in four movements:
A typical performance takes around 24 minutes. Performance HistoryDibble notes that the first confirmed performance of the Nonet did not take place until 1937.[3] The first recording, by the chamber ensamble Capricorn was released by Hyperion Records in 1987. References
