第四期：What makes music symphonic?
概要
这场的问题是“什么让音乐具有交响性？”(What makes music symphonic?)，答案简单的说就是发展(development)。音乐的发展一词对于各位来说想必不陌生，不过个人还是非常喜欢伯恩斯坦的比喻：音乐的发展就和生命的发展一样，如种子发芽开花结果，或是从婴儿长大成人。伯恩斯坦把development分为了三个阶段，先是birth of idea，再是growth，最后是change。虽然不是每首音乐都是具有交响性的 (symphonic)，但是每首音乐都有着development，而最简单的方式就是重复 (repetition)，在很多流行音乐中很常见（这里他给了一个特别损的例子，如果把音乐的development比作说服别人的话，很多流行音乐就是通过一直的重复自己的观点把人说服😅，而复杂的音乐会提供各个方面的论据😂）。Development越精妙，重复和模仿越少，音乐便越具有交响性。接下来伯恩斯坦利用非常多的例子介绍了development常见的方式，包括了变奏（variation），模进（sequences，把旋律在不同的音高重复），模仿（Imitation，也就是卡农和赋格的基础）, 增值（Augmentation，把音符的时值拉长）等等。和上一级一样，伯恩斯坦不仅讲解的非常清晰，各种比喻特别贴切，乐团的demonstration是极大的亮点。这一期的最后详细地分析了勃拉姆斯Symphony No. 2开篇部分的各种development，带我们感受乐句间在紧密联系的同时又幻化出新的风景，着实惊艳。

Development is really the main thing in life, just as it is in music; because development means change, growing, blossoming out; and these things are life itself.
Great pieces of music have a lifetime of their own from the beginning to the end of any piece; and in that period all the themes and melodies and musical ideas the composer had, no matter how small they are, grow and develop into full-grown works, just as babies grow into big, grown-up people.
The trick is not just to use all these different ways of developing music, but to use them when it's right to use them, at the moment so that the music always makes sense as musical expression, as feeling, as emotion.
That you'll be able to hear the symphonic wonders of it, the growth of it, the miracle of life that runs like blood through its veins and connects every note to every other note, and makes it the great piece of music that it is.

掘火中译：伯恩斯坦《年轻人的音乐会》| 什么让音乐有交响性？_哔哩哔哩_bilibili
《年轻人的音乐会》是纽约爱乐乐团推出的全球最悠久的家庭音乐会系列，始于1924年。伯恩斯坦于1958年担任该团音乐总监之后的首次执棒便是1月18日在纽约卡内基音乐厅演出的《年轻人的音乐会》，这也是该系列音乐会通过电视播放的第一场。到1972年为止，伯恩斯坦一共主讲和指挥了53场该系列的演出，它们全部都由哥伦比亚广播公司进行了电视转播，并在超过四十个国家播放，堪称有史以来影响力最大的讲座式音乐会。掘
第五期：What is Classical Music?
概要
这期的题目有点大，不过最后的答案可能略微有些“投机取巧”（？）首先伯恩斯坦说到，Classical Music这个词通常被用来形容非爵士、流行、民间音乐，而人们使用这个词可能只是因为没有找到更好的别的词来形容（后面他讨论了诸如serious, high-bow, art, symphony, long-hair等选词可能性）。不过抛开选词本身，最重要的还是区分各种音乐的区别。伯恩斯坦认为Classical Music的最大特点是“作曲家意志为大“：作曲家写下音符，什么乐器演奏，怎么演奏等等，而演奏者的任务就是精确还原作曲家的意志。不过和演奏者个性不同，对作曲家意志的理解可能有所不同，也就产生了不同演奏版本的不同，不过他们精确还原作曲家想要的音乐的目的是相同的，而这和流行音乐等音乐不同。接下来，伯恩斯坦又讨论了狭义的Classical Music，即在Classical Period(1700-1800左右)时期的音乐。这个时期的音乐最大特点是有很多的rules和regulation，以求完美（这点上和classcial的建筑、绘画等艺术是一样的）。伯恩斯坦回溯了这段时间的音乐史：前五十年主要是确定发展这些规则的阶段（以Bach为代表），后五十年以莫扎特、海顿为代表，他们认为Bach的很多东西太古板了，于是追求一种稍简单的规则系统，以创造很优雅愉快的音乐作品。虽然风格差距很大，但是他们还是以规则为基础，追求“古典美”。狭义的Classical Music以贝多芬为结束，作为一个承上启下者，伯恩斯坦形容他为"a classicist who went too far"。
片中还有几个讨论个人觉得也很有意思。第一个是狭义Classical Music受到诸多规则的制约，有人可能会问，那情感表达在哪里？伯恩斯坦回答虽然有这些规则的制约，激发人的情感还是这段时期的音乐最重要的部分，也是它们（可能也是所有好音乐）得以流传的原因。第二个是伯恩斯坦用海顿的Symphony No. 102简要的介绍了音乐中的幽默。不过《年轻人的音乐会》系列下一期就是专门讲音乐幽默的，现在就不赘述啦～

People use this word to describe music that isn't jazz or popular songs or folk music, just because there isn't any other word that seems to describe it better.
The real difference is that when a composer writes a piece of what's usually called classical music, he puts down the exact notes that he wants, the exact instruments or voices that he wants to play or sing those notes -even the exact number of instruments or voices; and he also writes down as many directions as he can think of, to tell the players or singers as carefully as he can everything they need to know about how fast or slow it should go, how loud or soft it should be, and millions of other things to help the performers to give an exact performance of those notes he thought up.
Do composers just go to a convention, like the Republicans in Chicago, and decide by voting to change the style of music? Well, not at all; it happens by itself; because as times change, and history changes, people change with it; and composers are people too; so it stands to reason that their music is also going to change.
Because the truth is that any great composer, writing music in any period, classical or not classical, will make you feel deep emotions, because he's great - because he has something to say, because he has something to tell you in his music. And because of this, a great composer's music will always last and last, maybe forever, because people keep on feeling emotions whenever they hear it.

第六期：Humor in Music
概要
这一期承接上期海顿的Symphony No.104介绍的是音乐中的幽默。首先伯恩斯坦说到音乐中的幽默是基于音乐本身的，它可以表现关于自己的笑话，或是别的音乐作品的笑话，但是不能表现日常生活中语言类的或其他的笑话（对于其他的笑话，伯恩斯坦认为他们不是musical joke）。伯恩斯坦提到幽默的一个重要特质是“不协调的”(incongruous)，从而创造一种surprise，使人发笑，在音乐中常有的形式是使用错误的音符或节奏，或者把大家耳熟能详的快乐的曲调变得悲伤等等。接下来，伯恩斯坦谈论了不同“等级“的幽默，包括了imitation（比如Rameau模仿母鸡的作品），wit（Haydn的Symphony No.88），satire（不是只是为了逗趣的幽默，而是有自己想表达的东西，举例了Prokofiev的Classical Symphony）等。最后，伯恩斯坦提到了幽默最重要的特质：幽默是以摧毁什么东西为代价的，可以是一个人（比如看到人因为香蕉皮滑倒而发笑），可以是一个词，一个观念，或者是逻辑本身，在音乐中也是一样，错音或者错误的节奏打破了音乐写作的规则（即音乐的逻辑），而像Prokofiev的Classical Symphony那样的作品挑战了传统的音乐。

Here we come to the central point of all humor: that all jokes have to be at the expense of something or someone; something has to be hurt or even destroyed to make you laugh — a man's dignity, or an idea, or a word, or logic itself.
The only thing that makes it a scherzo is that it is the third movement, it is playful, full of energy, it's — as all scherzos should be — full of good humor. Which only goes to prove that there are all kinds of humor in the world, as well as in music; and that all humor doesn't have to be a joke, or make you laugh.

第七期: What is a Concerto?
概要
音乐中有很多术语很容易让人望而却步，这期伯恩斯坦通过乐团示范集中火力来介绍Concerto这个概念。首先他追溯了一下词源，Concerto这个词在意大利语的本意就是concert的意思，而concert的本意是“togetherness”，在音乐中也就是乐手们一起演奏歌唱的意思。最初，音乐中的术语的使用是比较随意的，不过随着历史的发展，他们的使用越来越严格。伯恩斯坦的总结是，Sonata是任意乐器的独奏曲目，Symphony是整个交响乐团的Sonata，而Concerto是有独奏（可以是一个人，或者一群人）的symphony。接下来，伯恩斯坦用很多曲目带我们回顾了Concerto发展的历史。首先是巴洛克和早期古典主义时期的Concerto Grosso，这个曲式一般有一个大的乐团，加上一个小的soloist乐团，称为concertino。大小乐团轮流交替演奏，从而创造出变化和对比，而且也给了小的soloist乐团展现自己技术的机会。随着音乐的发展，整体趋势是大乐团的规模越来越大，然而soloist group越来越小：从Vivaldi的一首concerto grosso的soloist乐团有12个人，到Bach的勃兰登堡3个人的soloist group，到Mozart的2个人的soloist group，最终演变为我们熟悉的只有1个soloist。不过只有1个soloist的concerto有一种风险，就是可能过分夸大了soloist的炫技部分。到了20世纪，新古典主义的音乐家们再次挖掘出concerto grosso的概念，发明了concerto for orchestra，也就是乐团中每一个部分都可能是soloist，这期最后演奏了Bartok的Concerto Orchestra作为结尾。

Whenever people come to the end of anything, they always start asking themselves big questions, like "What are we really here for? What are we trying to accomplish? Are we really accomplishing it?"--questions like that. Well, my big question is: have we been helping you to come closer to good music? Are you beginning to understand a little more about it, and learning not to be scared of it? Most of my young friends that I talk to say yes; that they are feeling closer to music--sort of friendly to it; they have begun to feel that music isn't such a hard, strange business, after all, too grownup or complicated or sissy-ish or whatever.
There are some musical words which can't be explained in a second; it takes time to learn about them; and what's more, it takes listening to the actual music they describe before you really know what they mean.

第八期：Who is Gustav Mahler
概要
这期伯恩斯坦做了一个马勒的导览。这期视频的年份1960年正好是马勒诞辰100周年，而且50年前他开始自己在纽约爱乐乐团的指挥生涯。在那期视频播出的时候，马勒应该还没有今天他在古典音乐届的地位，而且他的地位和伯恩斯坦的极力推广有很大的联系（如有不对欢迎纠正）。从伯恩斯坦的讲解中感觉可能是同为指挥加作曲家，伯恩斯坦对于马勒可能有一种特殊的惺惺相惜的感觉🤔讲座重的关键词是double man（“双面人”）。伯恩斯坦谈论了马勒的各种矛盾：指挥vs作曲家，极致的快乐vs极致的痛苦，成人的复杂vs孩童的天真，西方vs东方，传统vs现代，伯恩斯坦认为这些矛盾正是他独创性的来源。另外伯恩斯坦还提到了他作曲中的两个矛盾，一是他非常喜欢人声，交响乐歌剧化，但是没有写过歌剧；二是传统印象中他的交响乐规模都很大，但其实也有一些很像室内乐的部分，但他没有写过室内乐（看弹幕提到其实在学生时代有写，有可能是视频当时还没有被发现之类）。这期还是蛮精彩的，尤其对我这个迄今还没有连上马勒wifi的人有激发兴趣的作用～

I am very proud to stand here on the same stage, with the same great orchestra, because Mahler was one of the greatest conductors that ever lived.
But it means something else too: It is like Mahler's own personal farewell to the old romantic kind of German music, as if he knows it's all over, and now he must begin a new kind of music, which he begins right then and there. And it comes out sounding very original. But at the same time he doesn't want to say goodbye to the old music; he loves all that Wagner and Schubert so much. So he says goodbye sadly, unwillingly, so that at the end of the piece, when the singer says the German word ewig, meaning forever, she sings it again over and over as if not wishing to let go of this beauty.

第十期：Unusual Instruments of the Past, Present, and Future
概要
这一期介绍一些很有意思的乐器～开篇先分析了一首巴西作曲家Villa-Lobos的Little Train,里面包含了一些巴西特色的打击乐，不过主体还是我们常见的交响乐团里的乐器，说明了usual的乐器也可以产生unusual的声音。接着伯恩斯坦说usual是相对的：我们现在认为usual的乐器在古时候并不是usual的乐器。节目里介绍了很多古乐器，包括了Shawm（oboe的祖先），cornetto（trumpet的祖先）, sackbuts（trombone的祖先），巴赫时代的小提琴，长笛和viola da gamba，而且很有意思的是采用了古今乐器轮换演奏的模式，更直观的感受他们声音上的区别。这里伯恩斯坦说到聆听到过去的声音是直观的感受历史的最佳方式非常认同！接着（也是整个讲座中我个人感觉瞬间deep了的地方😂），伯恩斯坦说现在真正新的乐器是electrical ones，比如我们比较熟知的Theremin（特雷门琴），还有Ondes Martenot等等，但是这中间最重要的其实是tape-recorder～录音带来了成千上万种不同的声音（比如Respighi的Pines of Rome中的鸟鸣声被认为是录音第一次在古典音乐中的使用），还有纯粹的电子的声音，并且人们还可以对声音进行各种处理（比如Glenn Gould对于录音的热情钻研和他的作品《声响学配器》）。我们也知道，录音本身也极大的改变了古典音乐本身，因为现场聆听音乐不再是唯一的方式。节目中还演奏了一首Concerto for Tape-Recorder and Orchestra，很有意思～最后伯恩斯坦话锋一转，说起了kazoo😂并演奏了一首卡祖笛的concerto让我们一睹它的风采🤣🤣🤣（特别魔性，看完很想下单一只lol

Hearing those instruments makes you feel as if you were really living hundreds of years ago.
It gives us such a clear, idea of the difference between olden times and our own times, just by hearing the sounds that were made then and now. That's really the best and most exciting way to know history: not just by studying about dates and battles and who was king of what in which century, but by coming close to the art of history - by looking at the pictures people painted in any certain period of history, or reading the poems they wrote, and hearing the music they heard. Then we can almost put ourselves in their place, and pretend we're living in those long-ago days; then we can really understand history - which is not just a dull subject in school, but an exciting way of knowing about what happened in our world before we were living in it.
I remember that when I was a small kid I had no interest in how the world was before I was in it, and I think that's true of most kids. But suddenly there comes a moment - maybe when you're 11 or 14 or 17 when you suddenly realize that there had been a big and interesting world going on for thousands of years before you were in it from the minute you realize this, and begin to want to know what this world was like, from that minute on, you're on your way to becoming a thinking person, a really educated person.

第十二期：Overtures and Preludes
概要
这一期也是比较轻松愉快的，讲的是Overtures和Preludes～伯恩斯坦提到小时候他刚接触古典音乐的时候最爱听的就是各种overtures，的确overtures和prelude篇幅较短（其中提到prelude篇幅一般更短，而且和overtures不同的是一般只有一个部分而且速度变化不多），又在很短的时间里有很大的情绪起伏，”麻雀虽小，五脏俱全“，而且形式多种多样，又激动人心。尤其对于小孩子来说，听一个四个乐章的交响曲估计很难有耐性，大概overtures更符合attention span～这期视频以让大家听音乐感受为主，演了Rossini的Overture to "Semiramide"，Beethoven的Third Leonore Overture，Debussy的Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun和Bernstein自己的Overture to Candide，分别是一首意大利的，一首德国的，一首法国的，一首美国的，同时也是两首歌剧的overture（其中Beethoven的Third Leonore Overture有时作为Fidelio最后一幕的prelude），一首concert program的prelude和一首音乐剧的overture～
喜欢的Quote
I'm sure that part of the excitement about an overture comes from the fact that it is part of the theatre — it combines the wonders of music with the thrill of the theatre.
Great artists are that way, they're very hard to satisfy, especially by their own work; and Beethoven was one of the greatest, and therefore one of the hardest to satisfy, and the one who most of all kept changing and improving all the time, all through his life to make his music better.

第十三期：Copland's Birthday Party
概要
今天又是一期愉快的“报菜名”节目——Aaron Copland的六十岁生日派对～伯恩斯坦把Copland的音乐形容成花园，花园里有各种各样的花，有很清新坦诚的作品(An Outdoor Overture), 有很教条式的作品(Statement)， 有包含爵士元素的，描绘美国大城市的作品(Music For the Theatre），有描绘美国乡村恬静生活的作品(Music For Movies, "Our Town"），有民间音乐的改编(I Bought Me a Cat, The Boatman's dance)，有西部风格的作品(Billy the Kid）。这种多样的风格正好迎合了第二期What is American Music中提到的多样性～节目中有一个印象深刻的片段是伯恩斯坦拆解Copland的Statement中一个很现代的一个乐句，通过调整他们的音高，配上传统的和声，之前感觉很扎耳的现代音乐立刻回归传统色彩，个人觉得是一个给现代音乐祛魅的很好的demonstration～节目最后Copland亲自上场指挥了自己的El Salon Mexico，老爷子玩得好开心好有感染力～

Today, we're going to have a 60th birthday party for another composer, our own loved and admired Aaron Copland, and this time we're going to meet him in person later in the program. When you do meet him, I think the first thing about him that will strike you is his youthfulness — not only the youthfulness of his face, but also of his smile, of his conducting vigor, of his almost boyish personality, and especially of his spirit.
After all, don't forget that this is modern music, music of our time; and we are living in some pretty rocky times. Besides, music changes and grows all through history, like all ideas; and what used to be considered right and normal is very different from what's right and normal these days.

第十五期：Folk Music in the Concert Hall
概要
这一期讲民间音乐的很有意思～首先伯恩斯坦说了Folk Music和语言的关系，他认为各民族语言的特点（尤其是诗歌）都反映在当地的Folk Music中，他列举了很多例子，比如匈牙利语每个单词的重音都在第一个音节，而他们的音乐也有这样的特点；法国的音乐没有强烈的重音，所以他们的音乐听起来比较smooth；西班牙语以辅音的声音为主，他们的音乐听起来就很清脆，富有节奏性等等。另外伯恩斯坦论述了Folk Music给concert music带来的影响，一种是按照民间音乐的特点写作出的“类民间音乐”（举例了Mozart Symphony in E-flat的一个选段），使用了民间音乐节奏和音符的西班牙作曲家Chavez的Sinfonia India，还有采风真的民间音乐的进行新的arrangement的法国作曲家Canteloube的几首歌曲，最后以汇集了上述所有方法写作而成的Charles Ives的Second Symphony作为收尾～Folk Music虽然比起这些交响乐室内乐来说是比较原始的，但这些复杂恢弘的作品无疑是从这些原始、简单的音乐中生发而来～

But most important of all, folk-songs reflect the rhythms and accents and speeds of the way a people talk, a particular people talks: in other words, their language — especially the language of their poetry — sort of grows into musical sounds.

第十六期：What is Impressionism
概要
这期介绍的是印象派音乐。开篇伯恩斯坦说，印象派的关键在于suggestion，并给出这个特别形象的比喻：如果贝多芬第五交响曲的theme就如爸爸命令孩子去睡觉的话，印象派就如爸爸通过描述温暖的被窝，甜蜜的梦乡suggest该睡觉了🥱印象派的音乐和印象派的绘画密不可分，于是伯恩斯坦接下来展示了莫奈的印象派画作和现实照片的区别。音乐和绘画相比是更为抽象的，不过音乐内部也有相对的“现实”——即“清晰”的和声和旋律，和相对的“印象”。接下来伯恩斯坦简要地介绍了印象派音乐家通过什么来创造这样的“印象”，包括了whole tone scale，新的和声，bitonality，和遥远地方的联系的等等。整期节目以德彪西的La Mer作为例子，并且包含很详细的对音乐的分析。这期的最后还提了一嘴Ravel，并用他的Daphne and Chloe选段作为结尾。

And as you know, the power of suggestion is often much stronger than a straight order. That's because it's deeper, it's more subtle; those hints can creep into a deeper part of your mind than a simple command can.
Or music can have a straight-forward clear theme like, let's take this one of Beethoven, which you all know (Fifth Symphony theme) That's clear, direct; that's like your father saying: go to bed! But it can, music can also suggest with fuzzy little wisps of melody the way Debussy does like this (Debussy - Preludes Bk 1: Voiles) which is like hinting at pleasant dreams.
It's funny how many of the great men of music seem to go in pairs, like ham and eggs: Bach and Handel, Mozart and Haydn, Mahler and Bruckner—and Debussy and Ravel.

第十七期：Road to Paris
概要
这一集很好的承接上一集关于Impressionism的主题，介绍了三位作曲家是如何受到Impressionism的影响。三位作曲家分别是美国的George Gershwin，国籍背景复杂但是犹太背景很浓的Ernest Bloch和西班牙的Manuel de Falla～Bernstein通过实例展示了虽然这些作曲家有着非常浓烈的，和个人背景息息相关的个人风格，但无一不受到法国的影响，作品中有很多的Impressionism的元素：诸如whole tone，bitonality，印象派的harmony和orchestration等等。介绍的三首作品都很喜欢，尤其喜欢Bloch的Schelomo！
喜欢的Quote
We have seen that in the first third or so of our century the road to Paris was a heavily traveled one by composers of all nations and races—and not only composers with Spanish or Hebrew or American roots, but many others like Villa-Lobos from Brazil, Chavez from Mexico, Prokofieff and Stravinsky from Russia, Malipiero from Italy, and so on and on. They all went to Paris because its French spirit has been very contagious in our century, and thank goodness it has; because it's greatly enriched our whole musical life.

They all went to Paris because its French spirit has been very contagious in our century, and thank goodness it has; because it's greatly enriched our whole musical life.

第十八期：Happy Birthday, Igor Stravinsky
概要
这一期是给Stravinsky过八十岁生日（想到节目播出的时候Stravinsky还在世感觉有点奇特）～Stravinsky一生风格多变，从Rite of Spring那种原始主义，到新古典主义，再到晚年的无调性音乐。伯恩斯坦还把他和毕加索对比，后者同样一生经历了多变的风格，而且二人成为了很好的朋友。简要介绍之后，伯恩斯坦详细介绍了Stravinsky的Petrushka，非常精彩～

- And just when they thought they had his number—a thunderer—he switched on them, with the ease of a bullfighter reversing his cape. Whoosh—and Stravinsky had a new style.
- And so it is this king Igor that we salute today, the ever-changing, ever-new, ever-young Igor who at the age of eighty, imagine eighty, is still handing out the biggest surprises in the world of music.
- Stravinsky himself has said that his music is loved and understood best by children
- And then, a few vague plucked notes in the strings, and the ballet is over, leaving us hanging in suspense between one world and the other. Did all this really happen? Was that Petrouchka's ghost up there, or was it the real Petrouchka? Or is the real Petrouchka, after all, only that broken hunk of rags and stuffing, which was made real to us for a few minutes by the magic of Stravinsky's great art?

1. Stravinsky - Greeting Prelude (Happy Birthday)
2. Stravinsky - Rite of Spring

第二十期：The Sound of a Hall
概要
这一期伯恩斯坦介绍了音乐厅声学，即一个好的音乐厅应该有的声学素质，并用案例来演示。提到的声学特点包括了reverberation混响效果（大概就是余音绕梁的感觉）, intimacy亲近感（观众听到的音乐应该感觉是在身边，使用了Aaron Copland的The Little Horses作为案例）, clearness清晰度（即是否可以听清楚各个乐器的声音，使用了Vivaldi的Concerto for Four Violins作为案例）, blending and texture（即各个乐器的声音混合在一起的声音怎么样，使用了一首非常有趣的Wlaton的Facade Tango作为案例）和dynamic range（即能否在不同的音量下都具有很好的声学效果，使用了Tchaikovsky的Overture 1812作为案例）。
这期节目播出的一年前，纽约爱乐乐团刚搬到林肯中心的Fisher Hall(现更名为David Geffen Hall），首演的声学效果非常不好，而且讽刺的是这个音乐厅是以科学的声学设计闻名😳经过了很多的声学调整之后才好了很多。不过查了一下，在这期播出之后，这个音乐厅还进行了非常非常多次的调整，而且在2019年又公布了一个改进计划(ref1)😳1974年New York Times上刊登的Schonberg的The Curse of Fisher Hall's Acoustics(ref2)可能一直延续至今。

A lot of people think that the sound of music in a hall depends only on how it's performed; if the orchestra plays well, the music will sound well -- which is certainly true, up to a certain point. But unless you have a hall that carries the orchestra's sound faithfully and clearly, the orchestra can play like angels, and you'll never know the difference.
You must remember that although music is an art, it also has its scientific side.

第二十一期：What is Melody
概要
这一期讨论的是什么是旋律这个问题。旋律自然是音乐中非常重要的元素，如果根据旋律就是一串在时间轴上的音符的定义，大概音乐是不可能没有旋律的。但是还是会有很多人会说：“这首歌旋律性不是那么强”之类的话。伯恩斯坦说，这是因为旋律有很多类型，它可以是tune（曲调），theme（主题），motive（动机），它可以出现在高声部，内声部，低声部，它可以有复杂的counterpoint使人难以分辨等等，而很多时候人们说的“没有旋律性”可能只是局限于曲调，高声部中。然而在交响乐中，正如他之前提到的，development（发展）才是最重要的元素，因此我们熟悉的tune在交响乐中不太常见，因为它已经“完成”了，很难再发展下去。伯恩斯坦总结道，其实对于旋律性的判断最重要的因素在于我们的耳朵期待的是什么（也就是taste），他举例道自己年轻的时候就没有体会到Bach的Italian Concerto第二乐章中绵绵不绝的melody的美，因为他当时觉得有重复的更具有旋律性，不过随着年岁的增长和对音乐更深刻的理解，他现在更能appreciate那段旋律的美了。之后，他还引申到，和我们自身taste的develop相同，历史上大家认为不具有“旋律性”的作品在现在看来可能也成为很有旋律性的代表了。总体来说这期蛮精彩的，一如既往的举了很多例子，还提到了一个很常见的melody的模式1-2-3，大概就是1是一个idea，2是对1这个idea的稍微有一点变化的重复，然后3起飞，还蛮有趣的哈哈哈～

But don't you ever be scared of counterpoint; counterpoint is not an absence of melody, it's an abundance of melody; it doesn't erase melody, it multiplies it.
Well, so far we've discussed a few of the reasons why some people find certain kinds of music unmelodic -- like melodies going against each other, as in counterpoint, or a melody singing away down in the bass, not easily recognized, or buried in the middle of a sandwich, which is hard to find; or a melody constructed out of tiny motives, which is not exactly a tune. But the really important reason -- and I guess this is what I've been coming to all this time -- is the question of what our ears expect -- in other words, what we call taste. And that, in turn, is based on what our ears are used to hearing.
In exactly the same way that our tastes change with growing up, and hearing all kinds of different music, so people's tastes change from one period of history to another. The melodies people loved in Beethoven's time would have shocked and startled the people of Bach's time, 100 years earlier, and I'm equally sure that some of today's modern music, which people complain about as ugly and unmelodic, will be perfectly charming every-day stuff to the people of tomorrow.
And if you're still wondering what is melody, just listen to this movement and you'll realize that melody is exactly what a great composer wants it to be.

第二十三期：The Latin American Spirit
概要
这一期介绍的拉丁美洲的古典音乐，是一期忍不住想要跳舞的节目💃伯恩斯坦说拉丁美洲音乐的两大特点一是充满切分音的节奏，另一个是民族乐器带来的特殊色彩。伯恩斯坦还提到了拉丁美洲的“拉丁”一词来自于被殖民的历史（葡萄牙西班牙说的语言都属于拉丁语系），但是拉丁美洲的音乐更受到当地原住民以及非洲的深刻影响。这期节目里介绍了巴西作曲家Oscar Fernandez，Villa-Lobos，还有墨西哥作曲家Revueltas的作品，各具特色。除此之外还介绍了两位受到拉丁美洲音乐影响的美国作曲家的作品，一个是Aaron Coplan的一首，另一个是Bernstein自己的West Side Story🤣🤣🤣其实从West Side Story就可以猜到伯恩斯坦本人应该是很喜欢拉丁美洲的音乐的～这期节目里他指挥得也是很投入，感觉马上就要在指挥台上跳起来了～
我个人对拉丁美洲古典音乐的了解不是很多（当然，我对其他了解其实也不是很多），只听一两张那种"Latin American Classics"合集，但是一直都对拉丁美洲的音乐很上头，感觉它们在舞曲和热情的表面下有一种“英气”的东西（形容得不好😳）。看完这期准备再多explore一点拉美的作品，也欢迎大家推荐呀！

Now actually I'm not crazy about that word "Latin" to describe this kind of music, because it tells only part of the story. When we speak of "Latin America" we are, of course, referring to the historical fact that these countries were conquered, settled, and exploited by invaders from Latin countries: like Spain—or, as in the case of Brazil, from Portugal. That's why Spanish and Portuguese are still the official languages of our friends to the south of us: and those languages are called "Latin" languages because they developed from the old language of ancient Rome. But the Latin American spirit—which is our subject today—has other ancestors besides the Latin ones, at least as important; and they are first of all the Indians,—the original inhabitants of those countries, and in some cases very strong civilizations in themselves—and secondly, Africans, a tremendously important influence, at least as important as it is in our own country. And it is the mingling of these different ancestors, influences, and heritages, which makes the Latin American spirit, what it is at any rate in the music.
The word America means much more than only the United States—that North America, South America, and Central America are, or ought to be, a solid united hemisphere.

概要
轻松愉快的一期～伯恩斯坦把这一期献给自己的老师，包括了Serge Koussevitzky, Randall Thompson, Walter Piston, Fritz Reiner等，演奏了他们或者和他们相关的作品，分享了自己和他们的很多故事，而且现场也来了不少他的老师和亲属。正如伯恩斯坦所说，好的老师可以"light a spark in you"，不只是传授知识，更是传授对知识的热情，老师。伯恩斯坦用了Brahms的Academic Festival Overture作为结尾，这首作品是Brahms为一所学校所写，也是和老师有关～伯恩斯坦这么多年之后其实也成为了一位老师，而且是为大众普及音乐的老师，很感动于这样的传承～

We can all think of a self-taught painter or writer, but it is almost impossible to imagine a professional musician who doesn't owe something to one teacher or another.
Teaching is probably the noblest profession in the world — the most unselfish, difficult, and honorable profession. It is also the most unappreciated, underrated, underpaid, and underpraised profession in the world.
You see, teaching is not just a dry business of scales and exercises; a great teacher is one who can light a spark in you, the spark that sets you on fire with enthusiasm for music, or for whatever you are studying. You can study the history of the Civil War for a year, memorizing battles and generals and dates and places; but if you don't care about the Civil War you'll wind up not knowing a bloody thing about it; But if you're lucky enough to have a teacher who makes that war part of your life, part of your country and your past — then you can drink in whole gallons of dates and names and places, and never forget them, because you learned them out of enthusiasm.

第二十六期：The Genius of Paul Hindemith
概要
时隔很久的更新😳🙈这一期是纪念Paul Hindemith的突然离世。之前我对这位作曲家没有一点了解，在这一期里学到了很多。Bernstein对于Hindemith的形容是德式传统的继承人，虽然他的音乐乍一听是不和谐的，但是这些不和谐下面还是对传统的继承，而且他也是抵抗了勋伯格开创的十二音作曲风潮。针对这一点，Bernstein举了两个例子，一个是他的Three Exercise Pieces，虽然听起来挺“现代”的，但是底色和巴赫的二部创意曲没有什么区别；另一个是他的Piano Sonata No.2，虽然也是有一些“奇怪”，但用的Alberti Bass也是非常传统。之后Bernstein介绍了他的交响曲Mathis der Maler，是由他的同名歌剧改编，写的是德国画家Mathis Gruenwald的三幅画。Bernstein介绍道，Hindemith对这位画家的痴迷很大程度上是因为二人共享类似的境遇：Hindemith内心挣扎于满足纳粹的需求和自己的创作自由，而当年Mathis Gruenwald也是陷入宗教争端，内心挣扎。这首交响曲成为一种他对于纳粹的抵抗，艺术家也是公民，而抵抗的方式就是创作艺术本身。

He was a fun-loving man, for whom music was everything. He was my idea of the total musician; he played music, wrote it, taught it, breathed it. He played jazz in cafes; he was concertmaster of an orchestra; he played viola in a string quartet, he wrote books about music; but mainly he wrote music, every kind of music —big, little, serious, light, noble and jazzy, hard and easy, music for professionals, for amateurs, and for children. He was a modern composer; but he was certainly never what we call an Angry Young Man. He had too much love in him for that. He loved all the German music that he was born into — Bach, Mozart, Bruckner; and he just continued it, making his own additions and changes.
So this opera about Mathis der Maler was his way of protesting; and in it he solved Gruenwald's problem as well as his own, by deciding that an artist is also a citizen and a fighter, only his way of fighting is by practicing his art, by creating beauty, in his own way — even if it means leaving his country, forever, which Hindemith finally did in 1938.

概要
时隔很久的更新😳🙈这一期是纪念Paul Hindemith的突然离世。之前我对这位作曲家没有一点了解，在这一期里学到了很多。Bernstein对于Hindemith的形容是德式传统的继承人，虽然他的音乐乍一听是不和谐的，但是这些不和谐下面还是对传统的继承，而且他也是抵抗了勋伯格开创的十二音作曲风潮。针对这一点，Bernstein举了两个例子，一个是他的Three Exercise Pieces，虽然听起来挺“现代”的，但是底色和巴赫的二部创意曲没有什么区别；另一个是他的Piano Sonata No.2，虽然也是有一些“奇怪”，但用的Alberti Bass也是非常传统。之后Bernstein介绍了他的交响曲Mathis der Maler，是由他的同名歌剧改编，写的是德国画家Mathis Gruenwald的三幅画。Bernstein介绍道，Hindemith对这位画家的痴迷很大程度上是因为二人共享类似的境遇：Hindemith内心挣扎于满足纳粹的需求和自己的创作自由，而当年Mathis Gruenwald也是陷入宗教争端，内心挣扎。这首交响曲成为一种他对于纳粹的抵抗，艺术家也是公民，而抵抗的方式就是创作艺术本身。

He was a fun-loving man, for whom music was everything. He was my idea of the total musician; he played music, wrote it, taught it, breathed it. He played jazz in cafes; he was concertmaster of an orchestra; he played viola in a string quartet, he wrote books about music; but mainly he wrote music, every kind of music —big, little, serious, light, noble and jazzy, hard and easy, music for professionals, for amateurs, and for children. He was a modern composer; but he was certainly never what we call an Angry Young Man. He had too much love in him for that. He loved all the German music that he was born into — Bach, Mozart, Bruckner; and he just continued it, making his own additions and changes.
So this opera about Mathis der Maler was his way of protesting; and in it he solved Gruenwald's problem as well as his own, by deciding that an artist is also a citizen and a fighter, only his way of fighting is by practicing his art, by creating beauty, in his own way — even if it means leaving his country, forever, which Hindemith finally did in 1938.

第二十七期：Jazz in the Music Hall
概要
这一期介绍的是音乐厅中的爵士乐，以The Third Stream为代表。The Third Stream把爵士和古典音乐融汇起来，由Gunther Schuller在1957年提出，节目中第一首便是请Gunther Schuller亲自指挥了自己的Journey into Jazz，讲的是一个小男孩学习爵士乐的历程，蛮有意思的～The Third Stream显然不是爵士乐和古典融汇的第一人，节目中介绍的第二首作品是1926年Aaron Copland写的Piano Concerto，其中包含了当年流行的爵士元素（Charleston rhythms等）。最后节目介绍了一首当下（不过也是快60年前了lol）的第三潮流作品Larry Austin的Improvisations for Orchestra and Jazz Soloists，其中有要求乐手们即兴的段落。
