 About Mozart 关于莫扎特

     Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical era. He composed over 600 works, many acknowledged as pinnacles of symphonic, concertante, chamber, piano, operatic, and choral music. He is among the most enduringly popular of classical composers.
     Mozart showed prodigious ability from his earliest childhood in Salzburg. Already competent on keyboard and violin, he composed from the age of five and performed before European royalty. At 17, he was engaged as a court musician in Salzburg, but grew restless and travelled in search of a better position, always composing abundantly. While visiting Vienna in 1781, he was dismissed from his Salzburg position. He chose to stay in the capital, where he achieved fame but little financial security. During his final years in Vienna, he composed many of his best-known symphonies, concertos, and operas, and portions of the Requiem, which was largely unfinished at the time of Mozart's death. The circumstances of his early death have been much mythologized. He was survived by his wife Constanze and two sons.
     Mozart learned voraciously from others, and developed a brilliance and maturity of style that encompassed the light and graceful along with the dark and passionate. His influence on subsequent Western art music is profound. Beethoven wrote his own early compositions in the shadow of Mozart, of whom Joseph Haydn wrote that "posterity will not see such a talent again in 100 years."
     歌剧是莫扎特创作的主流,他与格鲁克(Gluck)、瓦格纳(Wagner)和威尔第(Verdi)一样,是欧洲歌剧史上四大巨子之一。他又与海顿、贝多芬一起为欧洲交响乐写下了光辉的一页。另外,他的《安魂曲》也成为宗教音乐中难能可贵的一部杰作。作为18世纪末时的欧洲作曲家,莫扎特的音乐深刻地反映了这个时代的精神,尤其是体现在歌剧作品中的市民阶层的思想,无疑在当时具有进步的意义。莫扎特赋予音乐以歌唱优美欢乐性,然而,其中又深含着悲伤,这正反映了莫扎特时代知识分子的命运。
     莫扎特的音乐典雅秀丽,如同珍珠一样玲珑剔透,又似阳光一般热情温暖,洋溢着青春的生命力。由于他的音乐语言平易近人,作品结构清晰严谨,"因而使乐思的最复杂的创作也看不出斧凿的痕迹。这种容易使人误解的简朴是真正隐藏了艺术的艺术"。美国音乐学者约瑟夫·马克利斯说得好:"在音乐历史中有这样一个时刻:各个对立面都一致了,所有的紧张关系都消除了。莫扎特就是那个灿烂的时刻。"
