  • Reconsidering the Carmina Burana Gundela Bobeth (Translated by Henry Hope)1
    4 | Wine, women, and song? Reconsidering the Carmina Burana gundela bobeth (translated by henry hope)1 Introduction: blending popular views and scientific approaches By choosing the catchy title Carmina Burana –‘songs from Benediktbeuern’–for his 1847 publication of all Latin and German poems from a thirteenth-century manuscript held at the Kurfürstliche Hof- und Staatsbibliothek Munich, a manuscript as exciting then as now, the librar- ian Johann Andreas Schmeller coined a term which, unto the present day, is generally held to denote secular music-making of the Middle Ages in paradigmatic manner.2 The Carmina Burana may be numbered among the few cornerstones of medieval music history which are known, at least by name, to a broader public beyond the realms of musicology and medieval history, and which have evolved into a ‘living cultural heritage of the present’.3 Held today at the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek under shelfmarks Clm 4660 and 4660a, and commonly known as the ‘Codex Buranus’, the manuscript – referred to in what follows as D-Mbs Clm 4660-4660a – constitutes the largest anthology of secular lyrics in medieval Latin and counts among the most frequently studied manuscripts of the Middle Ages.4 Yet the entity most commonly associated with the title Carmina Burana has only little to do with the musical transmission of this manu- script. Carl Orff’s eponymous cantata of 1937, which quickly became one of the most famous choral works of the twentieth century, generally tops the list of associations. Orff’s cantata relates to D-Mbs Clm 4660-4660a only in as much as it is based on a subjective selection of the texts edited by Schmeller; it does not claim to emulate the medieval melodies.

    新古典主義(Neo-classicism)與卡爾奧福 (Carl Orff)的布蘭詩歌(Carmina Burana) 高千珊 目 次 目 次 ........................................................................................ I 前 言 ........................................................................................ 1 一、新古典主義音樂 .............................................................. 2 二、卡爾‧奧福的生平 .......................................................... 6 三、布蘭詩歌 ......................................................................... 10 四、結 語 ............................................................................. 25 參考資料 .................................................................................. 26 【附錄一】 ............................................................................. 29 I 前 言 卡爾‧奧福 ( Carl Burana , 1895-1982 ) 是 20 世紀著名的德國作曲家,更是 重要的音樂教育家,在他 87 年的音樂生涯中,透過長期的創作實踐與不斷的研 究探索,寫下許多著名的作品,而《布蘭詩歌》( Carmina Burana , 1937 ) 更是他 在音樂創作上一部重要的代表作。這部以中世紀詩歌為題材的大型作品,奧福將 中世紀、巴洛克及二十世紀這三個時空巧妙結合,以簡潔的節奏及特殊的音樂語 言創作出獨特的音樂風格。身為音樂老師的我,卡爾‧奧福這個名字早已十分熟 悉,但對於他的生平和他所處的時空背景,以及所創作的樂曲卻感到陌生,所以 本文將以此作為了解的重點,並試圖探究其作品《布蘭詩歌》。在結構上,本文 共分為四個部份,在第一部份中,本文將對二十世紀的新古典主義加以說明;第 二部份則針對卡爾‧奧福的生平做一介紹;第三部份則以《布蘭詩歌》為例,進 行分析與研究。 1 一、新古典主義音樂 十九世紀,科學的快速進步,電報、電話、錄音器材與無線電的發明,拉近 了東西方國家的距離,也間接增加對各民族間音樂的認識;而鐵路與汽車工業的 突飛猛進,也使經濟快速發展起來。進入二十世紀後,科技與工業持續進步,飛 機、汽車、收錄音機以及電話……等的普遍使用,將人們的生活徹底改變。自然 科學上,愛因斯坦的相對論及量子力學1的研究結果,則改變人們對物質結構的 概念以及對宇宙及世界的認知。而 1914 年的第一次世界大戰,使得許多國家經 歷社會與政治的動盪與不安,也改變了世界政治的權利結構。 西方音樂上,在歷經十九世紀浪漫主義音樂的洗禮,調性、和聲的使用達至 巔峰,社會與科技的發展與改變,也影響音樂家們去思索音樂未來的新方向。隨 著浪漫主義的式微,緊接而來的第一次世界大戰,使得新的生活型態及社會價值 漸漸形成,西方的文學、哲學、繪畫、舞蹈及音樂出現許多新的思潮,音樂的發
