Growing experience

French composer. 183810/kloc-0 was born in Paris on October 25th. His father is a vocal music teacher and his mother is a pianist. Bibi was able to read music at the age of 4, and entered the Paris Conservatory of Music at the age of 9, where he studied under Cournot, Mamont, Alaya and others. Georges bizet is in Rome 1857.

I won a prize for composing music, and I was able to study in Rome for three years.

Artistic experience

During this period, georges bizet explored various composing methods, tried different musical forms, and created symphonic overture, dry opera and piano music to prepare for opera creation. After returning to China, he completed his first opera "LesPecheursdeperles" in 1863, and then released "Paslivan", but the two operas did not get much response. Then he created Camry. Although he still failed, he has found his own style. Soon, he composed music for Dude's drama "The Girl in Ale City", which was well received. 1870, Bicai joined the National Guard shortly after her marriage. After retirement, he wrote in Bougival-sur-Seine. At the beginning of 1873, Bicai began to write the opera Carmen, which was adapted from Merimee's novel of the same name and premiered at the Xi Opera House on March 3 1875, and suffered a terrible failure. Contemporary people are shocked and offended by his bold realism and naked feelings, accusing it of being an obscene work and "music doesn't know what to say." It is said that he lingered painfully on the streets of Paris for one night. However, Carmen was praised by foreign musicians Saint-Sang, Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky and Debussy, and predicted that it would become the most popular opera in the world within ten years. However, Bicai failed to wait until this day. Only three months later,1June 3, 875, he died of depression in Buzzwale at the age of 37. Five years later, Carmen was staged in Paris again, which was a sensation.

Social assessment

Bicai's other works include the orchestral suite Children's Games and Symphony in C Major. Bizet is an outstanding figure who broke the influence of Italian opera on France after Cournot and liberated French opera from shallowness and glitz. His works often take the life of ordinary people at the bottom of society as the background, and depict scenes with realistic methods, which embodies a strong realism color. In style, it embodies the unique French tradition of being gorgeous, slender and loving opera. Influenced by Wagner, Berlioz and others, it uses bold harmony and counterpoint to make a strong dramatic performance. At the same time, it shows a strong national color (such as the Spanish style in Carmen and the southern French flavor in La Alec), which is full of enthusiasm and embodies the highest achievement of French opera in the19th century.

Edit this passage Carmen

Brief introduction to the story

Carmen was completed in the autumn of 1874. It is Bicai's last opera, and it is also the one with the highest performance rate in the world today. Carmen is a four-act opera, which mainly depicts a beautiful and stubborn gypsy girl-Carmen, a female worker in a tobacco factory. Carmen made Don Hauser, the monitor of the army, fall in love and abandoned his lover, gentle and kind Mikaela, in the country. Later, Don Hauser was arrested and imprisoned for letting Carmen, who was fighting with a female worker, go free. After he got out of prison, he joined Carmen's smuggling gang. Carmen later fell in love with the matador Escamilio georges bizet.

When Carmen cheered for Escamilio's victory in the bullfight, she died by Don Hauser's sword. The opera works of that era, with women workers, farmers, soldiers and the masses as the protagonists, are really rare and commendable. Perhaps because of the author's deliberate innovation, the play was not accepted by the audience when it was first premiered, but with the passage of time, the artistic value of this work was gradually recognized by people and has been immortal since then. This opera is good at chorus, and there are more than ten choruses of various genres and styles in it.

Introduction to music

The overture of this opera is in A major, 42 beats, Rondo. The whole overture is based on the sharp contrast image, and the main content of this opera is expressed by gorgeous, compact and fascinating music. The overture concentrates some of the most important melodies in the opera, and fully expresses the contents of the opera through the contrast between light and shade (1 paragraph, 2 paragraphs). The theme is selected from the music of the matador in the last scene of the opera. The overture of this play is often played alone in concerts. In the first act, when the changing soldiers arrive, a group of children imitate the pace of the soldiers in front to open the way. The children are singing the March of flute and drum with a brisk 2/4 beat in D minor (clip 3). In this scene, gypsy woman Carmen is portrayed as passionate and charming. Carmen's famous aria "Love is like a free bird" is a deeply rooted melody. Andante in F major and D minor and 2/4 beat fully show Carmen's bold, unrestrained and mysterious image (clips 4 and 5). After Carmen was arrested, Captain Suniha interrogated her personally, but she casually hummed a tune (fragment 6), which vividly showed Carmen's bohemian character. In this scene, Carmen sang another famous aria "Allegro", 3/8 beat, which is a charming song full of Spanish dance rhythm. The melody is warm and a little wild (fragment 7), which further depicts Carmen's frankness and fierceness. The interlude between the first act and the second act is also very famous. It is selected from the aria "Dragon Cavalry in Alcatraz" by Don Hauser in the second act. Bassoon plays a free and easy and energetic theme with Allegro Mean (the eighth paragraph). There is also gypsy music in the second act, which shows two gypsy women dancing in the hotel (paragraph 9). The jumping rhythm and the faint voice set off the noisy atmosphere in the hotel. Georges Bizet

The interlude between the second and third acts is a soft and beautiful melody. The flute and the harp complement each other and are full of tenderness (fragment 10). The famous "Song of the Matador" in the third act is a song sung by Escamilio to thank the people who welcomed and worshipped him. This triumphant March with powerful rhythm and majestic voice has successfully shaped the tall image of this ever-victorious brave matador (fragment 1 1). At the end of the fourth act, as Pyotr Il'yich Tchaikovsky said, "When I saw this last act, I couldn't stop crying. On the one hand, the audience saw the matador scream, on the other hand, it was the terrible tragic ending of the final death of the two protagonists. The unfortunate fate of these two people led them to the inevitable outcome after suffering. "There is also a popular Spanish-style dance music Aragon, which is often played alone in concerts (fragment 12).

Brief introduction to the story

Bizet's La Ale City Girl was originally a drama soundtrack, and the script was written by the famous French writer Dodd. Originally it was a three-act play. The performance of the play was not successful, but two suites adapted from the soundtrack of the play became masterpieces. The first set of "Girls in Alec City" was composed by Bicai, and the second set was composed by another French composer, Giraud. The drama The Girl in Alai describes the love tragedy of Frederic, a young farmer in Provence, France. The plot is roughly like this: Frederick is going to marry a girl of Alec (this girl didn't appear in the original play), and suddenly he learns that this girl has a bad reputation, so Frederick wants to forget this girl and marry his childhood girlfriend violette. On the wedding day, an unexpected guest brought the news that Alec had eloped with her lover. Frederick, who was still deeply in love with the girl in Alecheng at that time, couldn't help himself and jumped from the attic window to commit suicide.

Introduction to music

Three famous clips from the first and second suites of A Le City Girl are selected. The fragment 1 and fragment 2 are selected from the first song "Prelude" of the first suite. The theme of "Overture" originated from the provence folk song "Three Kings Team", which was used in the villagers' chorus in the second scene of the third act of the original play, and the theme was magnificent and powerful. The middle part of the music is "Flandor Dance" (a folk dance music form in Provence, France), accompanied by a French folk musical instrument-Provence drum, which is lively and cheerful. The third paragraph is the famous "minuet", which is selected from the third song of the second suite. This fresh and simple flute solo melody was originally an episode in Bicai's other opera "Beautiful Perth Girl". The beautiful harp with light arpeggios highlights the timbre of the flute Ming Che.

achievement

Debussy is regarded as the representative of impressionist music, although he himself does not agree with it and tries to stay away from this title. Some writers, such as Robert Schmitz and Ceci Gray, think Debussy is a "symbolist" rather than an "impressionist". It is also written in the New Grove Music Dictionary that it is not accurate to call Debussy's music aesthetics "impressionism". In any case, Debussy was influenced by impressionist art from an early age. Influenced by the French music tradition initiated by senior composers such as Masnai, he combined some characteristics of oriental music, Spanish dance music and jazz music, applied the artistic techniques of French Impressionism to music, and created his own unique harmony. His music had a far-reaching influence on composers after him.

be born

Debussy's family was originally a peasant family and moved from Burgundy to Paris in about 1800. His grandfather was a wine merchant and later became a carpenter. Debussy's father, Manuel akhil, spent seven years as an infantryman in the navy, and later settled in Saint-Germain-Angles with his wife, Vitolin, and ran a porcelain shop. Debussy was born in Saint-Germain-Angles on August 22nd, 862. He was also the first child of Manuel and his wife. Manuel wants his son to be a sailor. 1870 During the Franco-Prussian War, Debussy's family moved to Clementine's home in Cannes. Debussy is not from a musical family and has no good musical environment, but he loves music very much and has shown extraordinary musical talent since he was a child. Clementine arranged piano lessons for Debussy. An Italian named Jean Cerutti worked as a teacher and began to learn piano at the age of seven.

go to school

Debussy, 187 1 year old, was taken care of by Marie Mauté de Fleurville, a former student of Chopin. 1872, Debussy, 1 1 years old, entered the Paris Conservatory of Music and studied there for 12 years. His teachers of composition, music theory and history, harmony, piano, organ and vocal music were almost all famous musicians at that time. Ernest Giraud, Louis-Albert Bulgar-do Coudrais? Millay Durand, Antoine Fran? Ois Marmontel, César Franck, Albert Lavignac. Debussy is a student who can make friends by reading music. He plays the piano so well that he can play professionally. He has played piano sonatas by Beethoven, Schumann and Weber, and Chopin's second ballad. When Debussy was studying in the Conservatory of Music, he showed that he was an innovative student. In the process of teaching music by himself, he always has a strong desire to break old rules and explore new fields. In order to find new sound combinations, he often plays a series of augmented chords, ninth chords, eleventh chords and diatonic scales on the piano. The chords he played were not prepared and solved according to the traditional rules at all. For this reason, he is often scolded by the teacher.

sublimate

From 65438 to 0880, Debussy went to Russia to be Tchaikovsky's best friend and Nadezhda von Meek's family pianist. He benefited a lot from this opportunity. He came into contact with the works of many Russian music masters, especially Musorgskiy. The master's distinctive and novel harmony had a profound influence on young Debussy and laid the foundation for his later "Impressionist" music. 1883, Debussy returned to the Paris Conservatory of Music. He won the Rome Prize for his Children, a scholarship and a four-year qualification to study at the Institut de France in Rome, Italy.

make one's name

1884, Debussy won the Rome Prize for his chorus "Wanderers". Since then, his creative activities have become more and more frequent. At the same time, he made extensive friends with the most active and influential composers in Europe at that time, and he became interested in Wagner's music. Debussy spent 1885-1887 in Rome, Italy. He left Rome on 1888 to attend the German reuter Music Festival, where he was shocked by Wagner's opera. He stayed in Bayreuther until 1889 before returning to Paris. Wagner died as early as 1883, but his musical style influenced young Debussy. 1889, the World Expo was held in Paris, and the Eiffel Tower in Paris was established that year. At the Expo, Debussy heard the performance of Java Camaro, which had a far-reaching influence on the twelve-average law and the five-tone form.

Forming/shaping

After 1890, Debussy met the symbolic poet Malamei, and he joined the Paris Literature Salon headed by Malamei. Here, Debussy met many young artists. He often attended their art discussion parties, and some brand-new artistic views and ideas of these artists deeply influenced Debussy. He began to appreciate their poems and compose music for them. At this time, his music has begun to have the color of "impressionism" and gradually developed into his final overall artistic style.

Edit the musical features of this paragraph.

Debussy's music is far from classical music. In his works, we can't see the rigorous structure, profound ideology and logic of classical music, and we can't see the rich emotions of romantic music. Instead, it is strange fantasy factors, hazy feelings and mysterious colors. His harmony is delicate and complicated, the orchestration is novel and colorful, and the melody is slightly indifferent and erratic, which is not available in classical music and romantic music. Although Debussy did not create many works in his life, his works have their outstanding characteristics in every capital. Many of his works have become models of impressionist music, among which the most famous ones are: opera Pereas and Melisand, orchestral Afternoon of Faun and Nocturne, three symphonic essays "The Sea", piano music "Prints Collection" and some instrumental and chamber music works. Debussy's music is of epoch-making significance, especially his unique "impressionism" style, which directly influenced modern music in the twentieth century. Therefore, Debussy is often regarded as the pioneer of modern music in the twentieth century. Besides composing and teaching, Debussy is also engaged in music criticism. Because of his pertinent position and sharp words, he was quite respected and published a collection of music reviews. At this time, the development of the Paris art world was at its peak, and painters such as Rehnova, Monet and Cezanne were very active. At that time, Monet finished a painting called Impression of Sunrise. This painting became famous for a while, which was the beginning of impressionism, impressionism and other art forms. In addition, literary works are all impressionist, and these writers and artists have a great influence on musicians. Debussy applied his theory to his works and developed into impressionism, the founder and finisher of impressionism. The last decade before his death was the peak of Debussy's art, and many great masterpieces were completed one after another, which made him famous all over the world. He also often played and conducted his own works in European countries. Since I was 50 years old, I have been trapped by cancer and my body is getting weaker and weaker. When World War I broke out, Debussy was killed by shells in 19 18 at the age of 56.

The idea of editing this paragraph

Debussy, the founder of modern music, has developed a world of strange sounds that no musician has ever found. He was born in 1862. There were no musicians among his predecessors. His father is a shopkeeper, too poor to let his son receive any kind of education, so he plans to make his child a sailor. But a kind lady who used to be a student of Chopin was very interested in this child with musical talent, so she gave him lessons for free. Debussy cherishes this opportunity very much. He studies hard. At the age of eleven, Debussy was admitted to the Paris Conservatory of Music. During his stay at the Conservatory of Music, Debussy became a pianist in a trio of wealthy Russian ladies, and had the opportunity to travel all over Europe-Florence, Vienna and Venice, and finally lived in the lady's Russian manor for some time. There, Debussy met some Russian composers who tried to create a national music for their motherland from folk music. Debussy is very interested in the strange scales used by these Russian musicians, which are very different from the major and minor scales used by composers in other countries. These scales are based on the folk music of fanatical orientals. A year later, Debussy returned to the Paris Conservatory of Music and, like many other French musicians, won the Rome Prize and completed his conservatory course. But the music he writes is completely different from other musicians. He doesn't often use the major and minor scales used in traditional classical music. Sometimes, he will return to the strange old mode of early church music, and he often uses diatonic scales. Our major and minor scales consist of seven tones, five whole tones and two semitones. The difference between major and minor scales lies in where those semitones are placed. In major scales, semitones are always in the third and fourth tones, and the seventh and eighth tones (3-4; 7- 1). In minor scales, a semitone is always between the second and third notes, but there are also several different minor scales, in which the second semitone is in a different place. Debussy's favorite scale has six whole tones and no semitones at all (such as C, D, E, F-sharp, G-sharp and A-sharp), so his melody sounds different from any previous music, and the chords are even more strange. Debussy constructed his unique "dream world" with his preferred diatonic scale. Debussy made many bold innovations in traditional music. Perhaps it's because no musician has ever had such keen ears: Debussy actually heard more overtones than the average person. Just like a color is often composed of some other colors (purple = blue+red, orange = red+yellow, etc. ), a sound is often composed of many sounds. All kinds of sounds are caused by all kinds of vibrations in the air, and we can see from the Greek Dan Xian piano that whether a sound is high or low depends on the speed of vibration. But in addition to the first or main vibration, there are some minor * * * vibrations in a sound, just like a stone thrown into the water, which is not a wave, but an expanding ripple. The first and strongest overtone is the fifth tone above the pitch, which Debussy can hear without hearing AIDS. If we have a well-tuned piano, press a key silently, and then hit the fifth tone above or below it loudly, we can often hear that it is the overtone of another tone, producing an effect that Debussy once heard with his ears. The second overtone is the tenth tone above the original tone (pitch), and the third overtone is higher, but weak. The following overtones and so on. The main reason why different musical instruments have different timbres is the difference of overtones. Musical instruments such as violin have smooth and round sound quality and low overtones; The higher the overtone of an instrument like a trumpet, the better the sound quality. Debussy used these inaudible sounds in the air to construct his strange and non-earthly music. In order for everyone to hear, he boldly made sounds that people didn't even know they had heard. Because of Debussy's sensitive ears, he also used different combinations of various instruments in the orchestra to produce soft and flashing sound effects. At first, everyone was confused by his music and didn't know how to understand it, but once they got used to it, they would like it very much. This kind of music created by Debussy is the music called "Impressionism" by later generations.
