(虽然daily的一位好友每周末都要用音响系统听指环中的一联来下酒)之前声誉最高的是指挥家洛林 马泽尔(Lorin Maazel)上世纪80年代在美国匹茨堡交响乐团任上改编的“指环无词版”《指环旅途》指挥是美国人约瑟夫 斯文森(Joseph Swensen)
daily尤其喜爱他在RCA公司和安德烈 普列文麾下的(Orchestre National Bordeaux Aquitaine)这套名为《指环旅途》(Ring Odyssey)双cd作品
Embarking on this monumental project, I realized that Wagner’s Ring is a beautiful example of Classical symmetry and proportion, and it was very important to me that Ring Odyssey refl ect that very same structural ideal. All the music in my work follows the chronological order of the original score, highlighting the beauty of Wagner’s superstructure which runs through his four huge operas. In Ring Odyssey, because of its reduced scale and increased sense of perspective, this over-arching, elegantly symmetrical structure is truly discernible, even to someone unfamiliar with Wagner’s Ring. My hope is that Ring Odyssey will help the casual listener, the devoted music lover and my fellow musicians to appreciate Wagner’s original 16-hour version all the more.丝毫不会影响一个瓦格纳小白对这部伟大联篇乐剧的感受。
