He was influenced by many musical styles throughout his life and composed different genres of music. However, Martinů's works were less popular and rarely recognized among the audience when comparing to other composers in the same era. Martinů wrote five violin sonatas. His Sonata for Violin and Piano No.3, H.303, completed in 1944, is the only one composed in the United States. This essay is divided into four chapters. The first chapter introduces the life, the compositional periods, as well as the music style of Martinů. The second chapter talks about the five compositional techniques and characteristics of Martinů. The third chapter analyzes the form of Sonata for Violin and Piano No.3, H.303 and exemplifies the compositional techniques Martinů employed. The final chapter discusses the use of rhythmic motives and how it is further developed and organized in Sonata for Violin and Piano No.3, H.303.

Jan Smaczny. "Martinů, Bohuslav." Grove Music Online. Oxford Music Online. Oxford University Press, accessed October 27, 2017, http://www.oxfordmusiconline.com/subscriber/article/grove/music/17940. 2 1945)，諾瓦克對馬替奴的職業上有極大的幫助。馬替奴也早在一九○○年已經 完成了他的第一部作品《三個騎士，作品一》(The Three Rider, H.1)，同時在一 九○○年至一九一○年間也完成了一些鋼琴作品、十四首歌曲、及管弦樂作品 《丹達吉勒之死》(La mort de Tintagiles) 和《天使之死》 (The Angel of Death) 等。3 一九一四年至一九一八年正值第一次世界大戰，馬替奴為了躲避被徵召入 伍的命運，以及能夠持續教授小提琴，因此藉口身體不適回到家鄉波利奇卡休 養，這段時間馬替奴也專注於樂曲的創作，完成了包括管弦樂團的《夜曲》 (Nocturne)、歌曲〈頌歌〉(Koleda) ，同時也漸漸地在布拉格開啟了作曲方面的 知名度。一九一四年，馬替奴透過好友史坦尼斯拉夫·諾瓦克的介紹，到捷克愛 樂交響樂團(Czech Philharmonic Orchestra)擔任第二小提琴手的兼任工作，一直 到一九二三年離職，馬替奴在樂團裡從兼任團員轉為正職人員，並隨著樂團至 各國演出，遍及日內瓦、倫敦、英國等國家。在這些年中馬替奴創作了許多重 要的作品，如:《第一號弦樂四重奏》(String Quaertet No.1)、兩部芭蕾作品《伊 斯塔爾》(Istar)、和《誰是世界上最強大的人物？》(Who is the Most Powerful in the World?)等，同時也在蘇克(Josef Suk, 1874-1935)4 的建議下回到布拉格音樂 院跟隨蘇克學習作曲，完成學業。 在隨著樂團到各地巡演的期間，馬替奴深受法國巴黎的吸引，並在一九二 三年十月向捷克教育部提出獎學金的申請，前往巴黎跟隨盧賽爾(Albert Roussel, 1869-1937)5 學習作曲。身在異鄉的馬替奴在經濟上並不是特別的寬裕，不過幸 運的是他在一九二六年遇到了一位當地的女裁縫師-夏洛特(Charlotte Quennehen)，她幫助馬替努解決金錢與生活上的困難，而馬替奴與夏洛特也在 一九三一年成為夫妻。有了妻子夏洛特的支持，馬替奴在巴黎的時期能夠專心 創作，作品數量在這時期也有穩定的成長。一九三○年間，馬替奴在巴黎的名 3Jan Smaczny, “Martinů, Bohuslav.” 4蘇克(Josef Suk)：捷克著名作曲家、小提琴家，早年在布拉格音樂學院師從德佛札克， 1922 年起在布拉格音樂學院任教，也是捷克弦樂四重奏團的創始人之一。 5盧賽爾(Albert Roussel)：法國作曲家、音樂教育家。 3 聲越來越響亮，也成功舉辦了由瓦茨拉夫(Václav Talich, 1883-1961)6 指揮的 《第二號鋼琴協奏曲》(Piano concerto No.2)與歌劇《茱莉亞》(Julietta)的首演。 不僅在巴黎地區，馬替奴的作品《第一號大提琴協奏曲》 (Cello concerto No.1) 及《給弦樂四重奏與管弦樂團的協奏曲》(Concerto for string quartet and orchestra)也在謝爾蓋·庫塞維茲基(Serge Koussevitzky, 1874-1951)7 的指揮下於英 國首演並廣受好評。 在巴黎時期的馬替奴除了向盧賽爾學習，也接觸了新古典主義(neo- classicism)8、超現實主義(surrealism)9 及爵士(jazz)10 等不同元素與類型的音 樂，使他的創作更豐富，馬替奴的第一部歌劇《士兵與舞者》(‘The Soldier and the Dancer’)、《 第二號弦樂四重奏》(Strins Quartete No.2)及《爵士組曲》(Jazz Suite)皆是在此時期完成的。除了接觸不同類型的風格，馬替奴也喜愛聆聽與研 究史塔溫斯基(Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky, 1882-1971)的作品與法國六人組(Lex Six)的音樂。 雖然長年居住在巴黎，但馬替奴也不忘定期回到布拉格與波利奇卡演出自 己的作品。一九三七年馬替奴短暫回到布拉格，並遇到以前跟隨他學習的女學 生卡布拉瓦(Vítězslava Kaprálová, 1915- 1940)11 ，隔年在馬替奴的建議下卡布拉 瓦跟著他一起回到巴黎生活，以尋求更好的發展。馬替奴在這時也為保羅·薩赫 (Paul Sacher, 1906-1999)12 與巴塞爾室內樂團(Basle Chamber Orchestra)寫作了一 6瓦茨拉夫(Václav Talich)：捷克指揮家、小提琴家及教育家。 7謝爾蓋·庫塞維茲基(Serge Koussevitzky)：俄羅斯指揮家、作曲家和低音提琴家，1924 年至 1949 年長期擔任波士頓交響樂團音樂總監。 8新古典主義(neo-classicism)：興起於 18 世紀的羅馬，並於歐美地區擴展的藝術運動，影響 了裝飾藝術、建築、繪畫、文學、戲劇和音樂等領域，強調復古精神，而並非直接模仿。 9超現實主義(surrealism)：於 1920 年到 1930 年間為歐洲藝術界的主流，原來是一種文學運 動，之後擴展至繪畫、雕刻、戲劇及電影等方面。 10爵士(jazz)：於 19 世紀末期至 20 世紀初期起源於美國紐奧良，由非洲節奏加上歐洲和聲 混合而成。 11維塔斯拉瓦·卡布拉瓦(Vítězslava Kaprálová)：捷克女作曲家、音樂家，在布拉格曾與史坦 尼斯拉夫·諾瓦克學習作曲及向瓦茨拉夫學習指揮，之後也與馬替奴學習作曲。 12保羅•薩赫(Paul Sacher)：瑞士指揮家，創立巴塞爾室內樂團。 4 首大編制的作品《給兩個弦樂團與鋼琴和定音鼓的雙重協奏曲》(Double Concerto for Two String Orchestras, Piano and Timpani)。由於長時間與卡布拉瓦 一同生活居住，馬替奴對卡布拉瓦產生了不同的情素，因此對妻子夏洛特提出 離婚訴求，但這一段的感情始終沒有順利的了結。 一九三九年納粹開始侵占斯洛伐克，馬替奴被斯洛伐克的反對軍任命為文 化的協助員，幫助許多藝術家逃亡至法國13。馬替奴在這時期的創作因為受到 納粹佔領的影響，寫作出帶有國家色彩的《田野彌撒》(Field Mass)，隔年因德 軍佔領巴黎，馬替奴帶著妻子前往美國庇護，並於中途短暫居住在普羅旺斯附 近。因為語言方面的困難與資金的不足，馬替奴在美國生活較為辛苦，這段期 間他曾經到佛蒙特州(Vermont)、康涅狄格州(Connecticut)及馬薩諸塞州 (Massachusetts)短暫旅行，並於一九四二年到 Tanglewood 教學。幸運的是馬替 奴在不久後遇見了庫塞維茲基，他委託馬替奴幫忙創作了《第一號交響曲》 (Symphony No.1)，這首曲子不只是馬替奴的第一首交響曲，也是馬替奴在美國 的第一首大型作品，替他在美國音樂圈打下了基礎，並開始在美國順利發展。 馬替奴後來將這首樂曲獻給「捷克愛樂交響樂團」(Czech Philharmonic)，並於 一九四七年的布拉格春節慶典(Prague Spring Festival)中首演。 一九四五年，德國投降，二次世界大戰結束，雖然馬替奴在美國的生活越 來越穩定，但是對於回到家鄉布拉格音樂院教授作曲的機會始終保持著很大的 希望，不過由於馬替奴身體不適，以及因意外所導致長期受耳鳴、頭痛、憂鬱 症的干擾，遲遲沒有成形，更因為他的摯友諾瓦克的過世，以及一九四八共產 黨拿下政權，使他回到布拉格音樂院任教的計畫被打亂，最後馬替奴接受了庫 塞維茲基的邀請進入美國麻薩諸塞州的伯克郡音樂學院(Berkshire Music School) 教書。隔年馬替奴前往法國及瑞士度假與靜養，不久後再回到美國的普林斯頓

    BOHUSLAV MARTINŮ: EARLY ORCHESTRAL WORKS, VOLUME TWO by Michael Crump In 1906 a promising young Czech violinist called Bohuslav Martinů lef his home town of Polička and began life as a student at the Conservatoire in Prague. His studies were made possible largely afer an appeal in his local newspaper raised the necessary funds. Doubtless he had every intention of rewarding the trust thus placed in him by graduating with full honours, but the cultural life of the Czech capital proved to be irresistibly distracting. Te performances at the National Teatre, in particular, drew him like a magnet night afer night, usually in the company of his friend and fellow-student Stanislav Novák. His devotion to the theatre unfortunately led to the neglect of his violin studies and his eventual expulsion from the Conservatoire in 1910, but by this time he was already well aware that his future lay in composition, not performance. He stayed on in Prague, supported by modest fnancial support from his parents, and his love-afair with the National Teatre continued unabated. Novák later wrote a short reminiscence of his friend, giving details of his musical sympathies at this time of his life: He was free, nobody bothered him with counterpoint, he could attend rehearsals of the Philharmonic and read all day, he could compose whatever and however he liked and in the evening he would have to get himself to the theatre at any price. At this time he would never miss a single performance of Smetana’s operas, nor of Rusalka or Te Jacobin.
