交响童话——彼得与狼

发表于 讨论求助 2023-05-10 14:56:27



周末的早晨总是温暖而缓慢,今天早餐的音乐是前苏联作曲家普罗柯菲耶夫的“彼得与狼”。这是一部充满趣味的交响童话,童话有故事有情节,乐队里有不同的乐器,在这部交响童话里,每一件乐器都被赋予了角色,不同的旋律又分别对应了不同的故事情节。

音乐中用长笛、双簧管、单簧管、大管、弦乐、定音鼓和大鼓所奏出的具有特性的旋律和音响,分别代表小鸟、鸭子、猫、爷爷、彼得和猎人的枪声等。用长笛的高音区表现小鸟的灵活好动;鸭子的形象由双簧管模拟,生动地刻画出那蹒跚的步态;单簧管低音区的跳音演奏则描绘了一只神经兮兮的小猫;用弦乐四重奏描绘了彼得的机智勇敢;爷爷老态龙钟的神态由大管浑厚、粗犷的声音来表现,节奏和音调模拟了老人的唠叨;阴森可怕的狼用圆号来体现;木管组描绘的是猎人,仿佛他们端着枪在仔细查找狼的踪迹,颇具趣味的同时也能让我们了解每一件乐器的特点。

选择英文版本一是因为语句简短而又口语化,很适合孩子们听;二是因为自己小小的功利心,觉得音乐欣赏和英语听力可以一举两得。哥哥每次听到What kind of bird are you, if you can't fly?都会哈哈大笑——如果你不会飞,你算哪门子鸟嘛?

Early one morning, Peter opened the gate and went out into the big green meadow. On a branch of a big tree, sat a little bird, Peter's friend, "All is quiet, all is quiet." the little bird chirped gaily. 

Just then a duck came waddling around, she was glad that Peter had not closed the gate, and decided to take a nice swim in the deep pond in the meadow. 

Seeing the duck, the little bird flew down upon on the grass, settled next to her and shrugged her shoulders, "What kind of bird are you, if you can't fly?" said he.

To this the duck replied:" What kind of bird are you if you can't swim?"  and dived into the pond.

They argued and argued, the duck swimming in the pond, the little bird hopping along the shore.




03




Suddenly, something caught Peter's attention, he noticed a cat crawling through the grass. The cat thought, the bird is busy arguing, I'll just grab her. Stealthily she crept toward her on her velvet paws.

"Look out!”shouted Peter, and the bird immediately flew up into the tree. While the duck quacked angrily at the cat, from the middle of the pond. The cat walked around the tree and thought: Is it worth climbing up so high? By the time I get there the bird will have flown away?




04




Grandfather came out, he was angry because Peter had gone into the meadow." It's a dangerous place, if a wolf should come out of the forest, what would you do?"

Peter paid no attention to his grandfather's words, boys like him are not afraid of wolves. 

But grandfather took Peter by the hand, locked the gate and led him home.




05




No sooner had Peter gone than a big grey wolf came out of the forest. In the twinkling the cat climbed up the tree. The duck quacked, and in her excitement  jumped out of the pond.

But no matter how hard the duck tried to run, she couldn't escape the wolf, he was getting nearer, nearer, catching up with her, and then he got her and with one gulp swallowed her.

So now, this is how things stood: the cat was sitting on one branch, the bird on another, not too close to the cat, and the wolf walked aroud and around the tree, looking at them with greedy eyes.




06



In the meantime, Peter, without the slightest fear, stood behind the closed gate watching all that was going on. He ran home, took a strong rope and climbed up the high stone wall. One of the branches of the tree, around which the wolf was walking, stretched out over the wall.

Grabbing hold of the branch, Peter lightly climbed over onto the tree. Peter said to the bird:" Fly down, and circle around the wolf's head, only take care that he doesn't catch you."

The bird almost touched the wolf's head with his wings, while the wolf snapped angrily at him from this side of that.

How that bird did wildly the wolf, and  how the wolf wanted to catch him, but the bird was clever, and the wolf simply couldn't do anything about it.




07




Meanwhile, Peter made a lasso, and carefully letting it down. Caught the wolf by the tail, and pulled with all his might. 

Feeling himself caught, the wolf began to jump wildly trying to get loose. But Peter tied the other end of the rope to the tree, and the wolf's jumping only make the rope round his tail tighter.




08




Just then, the hunters came out of the woods, following the wolf's tail and shooting as they went. But Peter sitting in the tree said, "Don't shoot, don't shoot! The bird and I have already caught the wolf, now  help us taking him to the zoo."

So now, imagining the triumphant procession. Peter at the head, after him, the hunters leading the wolf. And widing up the procession, came grandfather and the cat , grandfather talk shook his head discontentedly, "Well, if Peter hadn't caught the wolf, what then? " 

Above the flew birdie chirping merrily,"My, haha,  what brave fellows we are, Peter and I! ha, look, what we've caught"

And if you listen very carefully, you would hear the duck quacking inside the wolf, because the wolf in his hurry, had swallowed him alive.
