Her range of expressions grew exponentially, not least in the moving Second Act exchange with Germont.” - The Straits Times, 11th September 2013. “Mae Naak – Nancy Yuen’s wide-ranging soprano suited well the vertiginous demands of the title role, and she entered gamely into the over-the-top nature of its evil characterization.” – Opera Magazine, November 2011 “Thaiis was a decided success and Nancy Yuen can count herself among one of the few sopranos in the world who have been able to pull off the role with aplomb. That alone was worth the price of admission.”- Bangkok Post, 1st July 2009 “But it was Nancy Yuen’s singing of the Countess’ two show-stopping arias, Porgi Amor and Dove Sono, which stole the show. While clearly mindful of the need to fulfill the demands of the Mozartean singing line, she still managed at the same time to make both arias a moving and heartfelt expression of a wife’s suffering. Among even the greatest interpreters of the role in the history of opera, one would be hard put to find such an ability to imbue both these arias with the feeling they cry out for” – The Straits Times, 18th July, 2006.

9 The Hong Kong Oratorio Society (HKOS) is a non-profit-making organization founded in 1956 by Mr Wong Ming Tung and a group of music enthusiasts who believed that choral singing and music would bring joy to the singers and the listeners alike, as well as enhancing the personal quality and enriching the spiritual and cultural life of the audience.

Its repertoire covers oratorios and major choral works by classical and contemporary composers including the masterpieces of Bach, Handel, Haydn, Mozart, Mendelssohn and Chinese composers Xian Xinghai and Huang Zi, etc. Many of these works were debuted in Hong Kong. HKOS takes its name from its favourite genre of repertoire, the oratorio, which refers to extended choral works with religious or mythological stories. In recent years, HKOS has commissioned composers Chan Wing-wah, Victor Chan and Huang An-lun to compose pieces for its performance. From 1996, HKOS has also produced five CD recordings distributed worldwide. The first conductor of the choir was Mr. Frank Huang who was then succeeded by Dr Wong Wing- hee serving as Principal Conductor and Conductor Emeritus for many years before retiring.

聖公會林護紀念中學舊生合唱團 SKH Lam Woo Memorial Secondary School Alumni Choir

二零零五年，時值聖公會林護紀念中學三十五周年校慶，八十名熱愛歌唱的校友成立舊生合唱團。在指揮及各團員的努力下，舊生合唱團的首演取得空前成功，觀眾反應熱烈。合唱團多次獲邀於學校周年音樂會作客席演出。於二零一零年，林護中學四十周年校慶音樂會中，舊生合唱團聯同學校混聲合唱團、管弦樂團攜手合作，演出韓德爾神曲《彌賽亞》選段──哈利路亞，為音樂會掀起高潮。前年，合唱團再度獲邀於2012林護仲夏音樂會作客席演出。隨着更多團員投身音樂事業，如擔任指揮、獨唱以及伴奏的工作，合唱團的表現漸漸成熟。舊生合唱團的排練及演出促進團員交流音樂愛好，同時向觀眾分享團員對音樂的熱誠。

The SKH Lam Woo Memorial Secondary School Alumni Choir, founded in 2005 when the school celebrated its 35th Anniversary, is now a thriving group of 80 passionate singers. Composed of alumni graduated in recent 20 years, the choir performs both sacred and secular repertoire from contemporary and historic composers. Its debut in the Lam Woo 35th Anniversary Concert, under the baton of Ms Lee, was well-received. Since then, the choir regularly performs at the school anniversary concerts, including the Lam Woo 40th Anniversary Concert and the Lam Woo Summer Concert 2012. In the Lam Woo 40th Anniversary Concert, the choir joined together with the School Mixed Voice Choir and School Orchestra to perform Hallelujah from Handel’s Messiah as a finale to the concert. With many new music talents emerged in the choir recently, while some have taken up the role of conductors, soloists and accompanists, the choir is devoted to sharing their affection for choral music across generations.

節目介紹 Programme Notes

Gallia《加利亞》古諾Charles Gounod (1818 - 1893) 法國於一八七零年在色當之役戰敗了，法皇拿破崙三世被虜，而法蘭西第二帝國瓦解，古諾隨之移到英國居住。他在居英時被委約為一八七一年的倫敦國際博覽會創作音樂，因而寫成了「加利亞」這套哀歌。古諾取材於耶利米哀歌第一章的經文撰寫了歌詞，又採用了傳統哀歌改由何西阿書的終曲合唱，以耶利米亞先知所述耶路撒冷的淒涼狀況來代表戰敗後法國的苦難。正如他後來描述此哀歌，他想描繪出一個不僅是一個被征服、擊碎的法國，而是真正由她敵人的傲慢和殘酷，侵害及欺辱了的法國。「加利亞」分為四部份；由開始的合唱曲描繪出耶路撒冷的淒慘情景。跟隨的抒情曲以女高音獨唱和合唱團的對比唱出被蹂躪的耶路撒冷對神的不敬。第三部份用了獨唱和合唱，哀求神大發慈悲，而終曲合唱懇求人民歸向上帝。

When France lost the Battle of Sedan with the capture of Emperor Napoleon III in 1870 and the collapse of the Second Empire, Gounod left France to live in England. There he was commissioned to write some music for the International Exhibition in 1871 and produced this lamentation motet, Gallia. Using quotes from the Book of Lamentations as the source and incorporating the traditional final chorus adapted from Hosea, Gounod used the desolation of Jerusalem as described by the prophet Jeremiah to represent a France “not only conquered, crushed, but outraged, … insulted, violated by the insolence and brutality of her enemy.” (as he later wrote about this work). Gallia is divided into four parts, with the initial chorus describing the desolation of Jerusalem. The Cantilena which follows juxtaposes the soprano solo with the chorus to bring out the impiety of the ravaged Jerusalem. The third section employs chorus and solo to plead for God’s mercy whilst the final chorus urges the people to return to God.

兩首以席勒的歡樂頌為題材的作品 Two musical settings of Schiller’s Ode an die Freude

德國詩人席勒於一七八五年寫了歡樂頌，後在一八零三年重新出版這作品時，修改了一些字句，成為了今晚音樂會獻上的兩首作品歌詞的素材。其實自歡樂頌出版後，很多作曲家把它編成歌曲，但大部分都採用了一部曲式。正如一位樂評於一八一八年在萊比錫普通音樂期刊所寫，歡樂頌不適宜以編成一部曲式的歌曲，因為其中的詩節包含太豐富的素材，而一部曲式不能完全表達這些各種各樣的變化。該樂評提議把這詩創作成一首貫穿式的藝術歌曲。今晚音樂會的兩首作品卻沒有採取樂評的提議 — 我們先演出一首一部曲式的藝術歌曲，然後獻上歡樂頌，一套四聲獨唱、合唱和管絃樂團合奏的傑作。

Friedrich Schiller wrote the Ode an die Freude in 1785, revising it on republication in 1803, and it is this later version which forms the basis of the libretto to both the musical settings of this evening’s concert. The Ode was popular amongst composers but many have set it as a strophic song, which as observed by a critic in the Leipziger Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung in April 1818, is unsatisfactory due to the great diversity of material in various stanzas, with which the strophic form cannot cope. The advocated solution from this critic was to make it into a through composed Lied. However, neither of tonight’s offerings followed the critic advice, with a strophic Lied juxtaposed against the definitive setting of the Ode as a choral tour de force with solo quartet and orchestral accompaniment.

An die Freude《歡樂頌》舒伯特Franz Schubert (1797 - 1828)

一八一五年是舒伯特出產極多的一年，創作了一百四十多首藝術歌曲，其中包括這首歡樂頌。他只用了席勒詩詞的首三段，為獨唱（或單聲合唱）譜寫了一首一部曲式而帶有副歌的作品。這首活潑的作品雖然在舒伯特十八歲時創作，卻在他離世後於一八二九年出版。我們特別感謝黃學揚先生為今晚的演出編曲。

Schubert composed the setting in 1815, one of his most prolific years in terms of musical output, with some 140 Lieder produced that year. Set for solo voice (or unison choir) the piece, which only uses the first three stanzas of Schiller’s poem, is in the form of strophic Lied with chorus. A lively setting (marked Lebhaft) made when Schubert was only 18, it was published posthumously in 1829. We are very grateful that Mr Alfred WONG has made the orchestral arrangement for tonight’s programme.

(German) (English) (中文) Freude schöner Götterfunken, Joy, thou goddess, fair, immortal, 歡樂啊，美麗的神奇的火花， Tochter aus Elysium offspring of Elysium, 極樂世界的仙姑， Wir betreten feuertrunken Mad with rapture, to the portal of 天女啊，我們如醉如狂，踏進 himmlische dein Heiligtum thy holy fame we come! 你神聖的天府。 Deine Zauber binden wieder was Fashion's laws, indeed, may sever, 為時尚無情地分割的一切，你 die Mode streng geteilt but thy magic joins again; 的魔力會把它們重新連接； Alle Manschen werden Brüder All mankind are brethren ever 只要在你溫柔的羽翼之下，一 wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt 'neath thy mild and gentle reign. 切的人們都成為兄弟。

Symphony No.9 in D minor, Op. 123 “the Choral” Movements III & IV Ode to Joy 《D小調第九交響曲“合唱”第三及第四樂章歡樂頌》貝多芬Ludwig van Beethoven (1770 - 1827) 雖然貝多芬早於一七九三年已有興趣把席勒的歡樂頌譜為樂曲，他最終還是在一八二四年創作他的第九交響曲時，才把這首名詩譜成著名的合唱作品。貝多芬早已在一八零八年，創新地把合唱曲加插入管弦樂曲內，成為他的合唱幻想曲。他從席勒的作品選出詩句，重組而編出這不朽各名作。最為人熟識的古典音樂作品之一，歐盟已將它訂立為其頌歌。有言論指席勒原本是作了一首自由頌；伯恩斯坦在一九八九年為慶祝柏林圍牆倒下演出這樂曲時，把「歡樂」改為「自由」。今晚的音樂會將演奏貝多芬第九交響曲的最後兩樂章。

Although Beethoven had expressed interest in setting Schiller’s Ode to music as early as 1793, it was not until he composed his Ninth Symphony in 1824, a work for which he had previously received a commission, that the most famous setting of the Ode an die Freude was created. Building on the innovation of adding a choral element to an orchestral work which he had done in his Choral Fantasy of 1808, Beethoven selected passage from Schiller’s Ode, rearranged them to create this immortal masterpiece. One of the best known pieces of classical music, it has been adopted as the official anthem of the European Union. It was thought that the original intention of Schiller was to write an ode to freedom and Bernstein substituted freedom (Freiheit) for joy (Freude) in the famous performance to celebrate the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. Tonight we will present this choral finale together with the preceding third movement.
