這張由泰勒曼清唱劇命名的專輯,道盡西方音樂歷史中,不乏許多作曲家在世時享有盛名、卻在身後為世人遺忘的無奈與滄桑。才思泉湧的飛利浦.安利希.厄勒巴赫(1657-1714)曾留下一千多部作品,其手稿卻因1735年一場大火而付之一炬,從此為後人遺忘;擔任策布爾斯特宮廷樂師的約翰.烏利希 (1677-1742),其多數手稿於二次大戰焚毀;遊學義大利的約翰.飛利浦 .克利格(1649-1725),創作兩千餘首清唱劇,如今卻只留下76首;就連名氣最盛的泰勒曼,其《詼諧的命運》等清唱劇作品直到1999年才於基輔重見天日。在本專輯中,德國著名古樂團Hamburger Ratsmusik將這些遺忘已久音樂瑰寶重新整理演繹,並由專精巴洛克音樂的德國女高音伊娜席德拉榭克擔當演唱,以純淨悠揚的嗓音,賦予這些古老作品簡單古樸、自然真摯的面貌,美麗動人。透過SACD DSD格式錄音,更讓人清楚聽見細微生動的歌聲處理,是張演錄具優的聲樂傑作!
Fortuna scherzosa, after Telemann's eponymous cantata, provides the textual framework
for the works recorded here: the subject matter is hope, yearning for fortune, fulfilment
and non-fulfilment, happiness and suffering. With her pure, straight and flexible voice,
Ina Siedlaczek expresses these diverse emotions with great authenticity. Her music-making
is historically informed, free and relaxed. Her interpretations are natural and, in the most
positive sense, simple.
Not only the texts of many Baroque cantatas and arias speak of Fortuna's fickleness. A glance at music history
also reveals how unequally sympathy and success were distributed: many composers who were great
names during their own lifetimes later faded into obscurity; not because their works lacked quality, but due to
coincidences, or because they were eclipsed by the fame of their successors.
One of these composers was Philipp Heinrich Erlebach. His oeuvre comprised hundreds of works in nearly
all genres current at the time. During a fire, however, the great majority of his music was lost: only around
seventy of Erlebach's works are known today. The occasion of the tercentenary of his death on 17 April 2014
will hopefully make them more famous once again.
Johann Ulich was released from complete oblivion only recently when some of his manuscripts were rediscovered.
Ulich had been Kapellmeister at the court of Zerbst between 1708 and 1742, and would therefore have
been an accomplished musical director and a versatile composer. It is thought that the majority of his oeuvre
was lost when the princes' palace of Anhalt-Zerbst was destroyed during the Second World War.
Georg Philipp Telemann, however, won fame during his lifetime and remains one of the most famous composers
of the Baroque era. But his cantata Fortuna scherzosa did not come to light until 1999 when the historic
music archive of the Berlin Sing-Akademie was rediscovered in Kiev (Ukraine), which included sixteen works by
Telemann that had, until then, been unknown.
At the age of around twenty-three, Johann Philipp Krieger already was Kapellmeister to a margrave; he
enjoyed forty-five years of employment as a widely-known and famous Kapellmeister at the art-loving court at
Saxe-Weisenfels, leaving behind a legacy of around 2500 compositions. Nonetheless, he is largely forgotten
today as only a fraction of his compositions has survived.
Ina Siedlaczek's interpretations are deeply moving, not least thanks to an audible match between her personal
philosophy and the over-riding message of this SACD. She received a wide-ranging musical education from
an early age, learning the violin, viola, piano and organ. In addition to her singing studies, where her teachers
included Heidrun Luchterhandt (Heidelberg) and Prof. Vera Scherr (Mannheim), she completed a music therapy
course with a diploma in Heidelberg.
As a soloist, Ina Siedlaczek is in great demand both as an oratorio singer and as a consort singer. Alongside
the classical oratorio repertoire, one of her particular interests is historically informed interpretation of vocal
music of the era before Johann Sebastian Bach. She regularly assembles programmes of this repertoire, including
solo cantatas. She works closely with ensembles who have also specialised in this period. Ina Siedlaczek is regularly
invited by renowned music festivals and undertakes concert tours across Europe. Numerous CD and radio
recordings document her creative work.
