行政長官的話 MESSAGE FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE

I would like to congratulate the Hong Kong Arts Festival on the organisation of its 51st edition.

For more than half a century now, the Arts Festival has enthralled audiences with a superb annual programme of arts and culture performances embracing classical music and opera, theatre, dance, multimedia and a great deal more.

This year’s Arts Festival programme opens with the Slovene National Theatre Maribor’s ballet performances of Radio and Juliet and Le Sacre du Printemps, two classics re-imagined by celebrated choreographer Edward Clug. It closes, nearly five weeks later, with a concert by Germany’s Bamberg Symphony, one of Europe’s greatest orchestras. Other highlights include Anna Netrebko, one of the world’s great sopranos, performing with her husband, tenor Yusif Eyvazov; artist William Kentridge’s remarkable production of Monteverdi’s opera, Il Ritorno d’Ulisse, brought to life by South Africa’s Handspring Puppet Company and Belgium’s Ricercar Consort periodinstrument ensemble; Ballet Superstars’ Force of Nature and Legendary Ballerina

新知。「香港藝術節青少年之友」計 劃同樣以豐富年輕人的體驗為目標， 籌備了多場學校巡演、演前工作坊和 特備節目。「加料節目」的創意活動 則把全港觀眾與藝術家連繫起來，讓 藝術文化遍及社區。

我感謝香港藝術節盡心竭力推廣藝術 文化，協助推動香港發展為中外文 化藝術交流中心。我亦感謝一眾贊 助商和捐款人慷慨襄助，令藝術節精 彩紛呈。

今年的藝術盛宴每場表演均可貴可 喜，大家定能盡情享受，樂在其中。

in Two Feet featuring supreme ballerina Natalia Osipova; and concerts by the international award-winning piano virtuoso Bruce Liu.

As always, the Festival shines a spotlight on standout artists from Hong Kong. This year’s Cantonese opera offerings include Love in the Bamboo Grove, Cantonese Opera Classics Circa 2023, The Painted Skin (Refined Edition) and Virtues and Morality—Four Cantonese Operas. Local productions including Table For Six on Stage, Loveless Romance and Love Streams are sure to be among this year’s Festival highlights.

Several programmes invite public participation as well, including the First Steps participatory dance performances staged by France’s Tamanoir Immersive Studio, as well as Tai Kwun’s free series of arts tech productions and the Festival’s No Limits programme, led by local and international artists of varying abilities. No Limits’ offerings emphasise youth exploration, as does the Young Friends of the Hong Kong Arts Festival with its school tours, preperformance workshops and special programming. And then there is the Festival PLUS creative activities that bring artists and audiences together in communities throughout Hong Kong.

I am grateful to the Hong Kong Arts Festival for its inspired commitment to the arts and to Hong Kong’s continuing rise as an East-meets-West centre for international cultural exchange. My thanks, as well, to the Festival’s many generous sponsors and donors.

I know you will treasure every performance, every moment, of this year’s Hong Kong Arts Festival.

「四位年輕音樂家——即使這樣 說如此陳腔——演奏時深具才情 以及超乎其年齡的成熟。」—— 《南德意志報》

「伊斯美弓下的舒伯特四重 奏，猶如米芝蓮佳餚一樣齒 頰留香。」——美國弦樂雜誌 《 STRINGS 》

「四位表演者深具抒情詩意以 及輕若空氣的靈動感，為演奏 時的一舉一動注入深度，以及 超乎想像的魅力。」

——法國古典月刊《音叉》

在 2018 年倫敦威格摩爾音樂廳 國際弦樂四重奏大賽中獲得冠 軍以及四個特別獎項（包括莫 扎特獎及貝多芬獎）後，伊斯 美弦樂四重奏便以極具震撼力 的方式，在弦樂四重奏的舞台 閃亮登場。其後，他們便受邀

踏上世界各地音樂節及音樂廳 的舞台，作一系列巡迴演出， 例如瑞士的琉森音樂節、布魯 塞爾的 Musiq3 音樂節、巴塞 隆那大禮堂、里爾歌劇院、海 德堡弦樂四重奏音樂節、在匈 牙利舉辦的海頓弦樂四重奏音 樂節，以及奧地利埃斯特哈希 音樂節。同年夏天，四人獲 委任為艾克斯音樂節的駐節四 重奏樂團，亦在加拿大蒙特利 爾麥基爾國際弦樂四重奏音樂 節亮相。

在 2019 年，四重奏更獲得艾克 斯音樂節中的滙豐銀行桂冠獎 以及第 55 屆呂貝克波瑟爾國際 音樂比賽的冠軍。四人的出道 唱片由唱片品牌 Alpha Classics 錄製，當中收錄貝多芬、陳銀 淑及法蘭克·布里奇的作品。 該唱片在 2020 年初甫發行，便 旋即獲得樂評人一致好評。法 國音樂雜誌《音叉》為其給予

在 2022 年，四重奏組合更首度 到北美及日本巡演。

四重奏之名「 Esmé 」在古法 語中意指「受珍愛、被敬重」。

四位識於微時的韓國弦樂家志 同道合，同樣熱愛音樂、藝術 及生命，決意在 2016 年於科隆

音樂學院正式組成弦樂組合， 自此活躍於德國古典樂壇。

四重奏曾於多個大師班獲藝術

In 2022 the quartet performed on tour for the first time in North America and Japan.

The name of the quartet, Esmé, is borrowed from an old French word meaning “to be loved”. Based in Germany, the quartet was formed in 2016 at the Hochschule für Musik in Cologne, Germany, and is comprised of four Korean musicians who were friends as youngsters and who share a passion for music, the arts and life. The quartet has been mentored in masterclasses by artists such as Günter Pichler (Alban Berg Quartet), Alfred Brendel, Eberhard Feltz, Andras Keller, Christoph Poppen and Jonathan Brown (Cuarteto Casals). Esmé Quartet studied with Heime Müller (Artemis Quartet) at the Hochschule für Musik in Lübeck, Germany.

樂曲介紹 Programme Notes

約瑟夫． 海頓

Franz Joseph Haydn

(1732-1809)

海頓

降 E 大調弦樂四重奏，作品 33/2，「玩笑」

約瑟夫・海頓直至 1780 年代初

譜寫作品 33 時，才首次使用 「弦樂四重奏」這個名稱。在這 之前，他偏好使用「嬉遊曲」

（ Divertimento ）一詞。海頓習 慣一批批創作四重奏，並以一 組六首的方式發表，正如 1781 年發表的這批樂曲。隨着其中

一些作品在當年聖誕節演出， 出版商阿塔里亞在 1782 年， 亦即海頓 50 歲那年，以作品 33 為名出版了這六首四重奏。

當時剛搬到維也納的莫札特十 分喜愛這些作品，兩位作曲家 及後建立了相互裨益的友誼， 為弦樂四重奏這個樂種留下深 遠影響。

海頓把作品 33 弦樂四重奏呈獻 給保羅大公。這位大公後來短 暫稱帝，是為俄國沙皇保羅一 世。這幾首弦樂四重奏亦因此 被稱為「俄羅斯」四重奏。向 他的贊助者形容這些新作時， 海頓稱自己是以「新穎及特別 的方式創作」。音樂作家保羅・ 格菲斯在談及弦樂四重奏歷史 時便指出，海頓由早期的「戲 劇性、激烈和厚重」轉為強 調「他最卓越的音樂素質—— 幽默機智」。在作品 33 四重奏 之中，海頓開始以「諧謔曲」 （「 scherzo 」，意大利語「玩 笑」之意）而不是「小步舞曲」 來命名有舞曲風格的第二及第 三樂章。

誠然，作品 33 組曲的第二首 作品便以其英文暱稱「玩笑」

（ The Joke ）而聞名。作品表 現了海頓的招牌機智。當聽 眾以為自己預料得到音樂的開 展時，海頓卻給了聽眾一個驚 喜。海頓「機智」的另一重要 面向，是起首樂章之中所展現 的對最微細的音樂意念和片段 的創意思維。在諧謔曲第二 樂章中呈對比的三章，看似調

侃文雅細膩的表演方法，與歡 快、令人手舞足蹈的主題形成 對比。溫柔又富沉思意味的 廣板，把弦樂分為成對的二重 奏。然而，「玩笑」這個通稱卻 是來自充滿玩味的最後樂章， 海頓在收結時幽了聽眾一默， 使我們暈頭轉向，不知何時才 是真正的「結尾」。

Haydn: String Quartet in E-flat major , Op . 33 , No . 2 , “The Joke”

Joseph Haydn (1732-1809) didn’t even begin using the term “string quartet” until the Op. 33 set from the early 1780s; his preferred label before that was “divertimento”. He tended to write his quartets in batches, publishing them in sets of six, as he did with this group from 1781. Following the first performance of at least some of these works on Christmas, the firm of Artaria published these six quartets in 1782—the year Haydn turned 50—as his Opus 33. Mozart had recently settled in Vienna and became especially fond of these works. The two composers developed a mutually inspiring friendship, which left its mark on the string quartet genre above all.

Haydn dedicated the Op. 33 quartets to Grand Duke Paul, who would later briefly rule as Paul I, Emperor of Russia. They are therefore sometimes referred to as the “Russian” quartets. Haydn described these new works to his patrons as having been “written in a new and special way”. As the music writer Paul Griffiths notes in his history of the string quartet genre, Haydn turned from the “drama, vehemence and weight” of his earlier quartets to a style that emphasised “his greatest musical asset, namely wit”. It was in the Op. 33 quartets overall that Haydn began, for example, to use the word “scherzo” (Italian for “joke”) instead of “minuet” for the dance-influenced second or third movements.

Indeed, the second work of the Op. 33 set, the Quartet in E-flat major, is known by its English nickname “The Joke” as a result of its display of Haydn’s famously inventive wit, which promises to surprise listeners—just when we think we know where the music is going. Another important facet of Haydn’s “wit” is the creativity with which he develops the smallest musical ideas or fragments, as we hear throughout the opening movement. The contrasting trio in the scherzo second movement seems to mock the idea of a more polite and refined way of playing in contrast to the foot-stomping main idea. The tenderly pensive largo divides the strings up into duetting pairs. It is the playful final movement in particular that inspired the nickname “The Joke” because of the fun Haydn has in staging the conclusion—so we’re left wondering when we have really reached “the end”.

亞歷山大． 鮑羅丁

Alexander Borodin (1833-1887)

鮑羅丁

D 大調第二弦樂四重奏

格魯吉亞裔俄羅斯作曲家亞歷 山大・鮑羅丁，一生既傳奇又 充滿挑戰，他與幾位開創俄國 音樂先河的作曲家，在 1860 年 代的聖彼得堡迅速崛起，被稱 為「俄國五人組」。

當時的俄國風起雲湧，如 1861 年解放農奴等劇烈社會變動， 促使時人對藝術的意義及藝 術與俄羅斯人身份的關係提 出詰問。

「俄國五人組」提倡發展出獨立 於西歐音樂傳統的地道俄羅斯 藝術音樂。他們對於自己沒有 受過音樂學院正統訓練，而是 透過不斷嘗試、不斷改進來學 習作曲、作為「業餘者」的身 份十分自豪。鮑羅丁畢生以化

學研究者和教授為本業，視音 樂為副業。他是一位備受尊崇 的科學家，對生物化學，特別 是膽固醇與心臟病之間的關係 有重大貢獻。作曲對他來說， 是餘暇時的嗜好。

他的「俄國五人組」同儕傾向 創作歌劇或有敘事成分的管弦 樂章等有「故事」的音樂，而 鮑羅丁卻對以弦樂四重奏為代 表的「絕對」音樂情有獨鍾， 使他顯得與別不同。後者只 關乎音符本身，與外在敘事無 關。鮑羅丁在 1881 年夏天很快 寫成他的第二弦樂四重奏，並 獻給了他的妻子。作為一個充 滿熱忱的大提琴家，他把作品 起首樂章的主題給了大提琴， 之後才由第一小提琴接手，一 同奏出這旋律豐富的四重奏。 鮑羅丁對貝多芬和孟德爾頌的 弦樂四重奏十分推崇，其中後 者的影響可見於第二樂章諧謔 曲的連珠炮發。然而這點卻被 「俄國五人組」中更為激進的同 儕所批評。

他們或許亦曾艷羨鮑羅丁在題 為〈夜曲〉的如夢似幻樂章中 展現的旋律天賦。〈夜曲〉亦與 出自歌劇《伊果王子》的〈韃 靼人之舞〉齊名，成爲鮑羅丁 作品中最為人所認識的作品。 這兩首作品後來在 1955 年的電 影《富貴榮華》中成為家喻戶 曉的名曲（其受《天方夜譚》 啟發的故事則與作曲家本人 無關）。

鮑羅丁在最後樂章中，亦表 現了他對對位法技巧的深厚理 解。樂章悠悠開始，並轉化成

一個昂揚的主要樂章。其豐富 的歌詞内涵亦令這首弦樂成爲 膾炙人口的作品。

Borodin: String Quartet No. 2 in D Major

The Georgian-Russian composer Alexander Borodin (183387) lived through especially exciting—but also challenging— times as a member of the circle of trailblazing composers who flourished in St. Petersburg in the 1860s and who became known as “The Five” or “The Mighty Handful”. Dramatic social changes in Russia, such as the emancipation of the serfs in 1861, helped prompt new questions about the purpose of art and its relation to Russian identity.

The members of “The Five” advocated developing an authentic Russian art music that would be independent of the standards that had developed in Western Europe. They were proud of being “amateurs” who lacked the polish of conservatory training, but learned composition from trial-and-error experiments instead. Borodin regarded his musical work as a sideline to his professional career as a chemistry researcher and professor. He became a highly respected scientist and made lasting contributions to biochemistry—especially regarding the connection between cholesterol and heart disease. Composing was essentially a hobby to be pursued in his spare time.

While his colleagues in “The Five” preferred writing music clearly involving stories (whether operas or programmatic orchestral pieces), Borodin stood apart in his fondness for the kind of “absolute” music represented by the string quartet—music not associated with a narrative beyond the notes themselves. Borodin composed the Second Quartet quickly in the summer of 1881 and dedicated it to his wife. Also an enthusiastic cellist, he gives the first theme of the opening movement to his instrument before it is taken up by the first violin, setting this melody-rich quartet into motion. Borodin’s obvious admiration for the quartets of Beethoven and Mendelssohn—the latter is apparent in the rapid-fire textures of the second-movement scherzo—was frowned upon by the more radical composers of “The Five”.

They also may have been jealous of the melodic gift Borodin displays above all in the dreamy slow movement, titled "Notturno", which would become his best-known piece of music along with the Polovtsian Dances from his opera Prince Igor. Both of these have starring roles in the soundtrack of the 1955 film Kismet (whose Arabian Nights-inspired plot has nothing to do with the composer).

Borodin also shows his clever understanding of the techniques of counterpoint in the last movement, which begins with music in slower tempo from which the buoyantly paced main movement is derived.

The overall lyrical richness of the Second String Quartet has made it a beloved addition to the repertoire.

法蘭茲． 舒伯特

Franz Schubert (1797-1828)

舒伯特

D 小調第十四弦樂四重奏， D810，「死亡與少女」

法蘭茲．舒伯特在 1824 年，

年僅 27 歲時便創作了這首 D 小 調第十四弦樂四重奏。連同另 外兩首在他 1828 年逝世前創 作的大型四重奏（他的作品中 共計有十五首完成的弦樂四重 奏），這首作品被公認為是弦 樂四重奏這一樂種的典範。這 首被稱為「死亡與少女」的 D 小調弦樂四重奏，對其他作曲 家甚至其他範疇的藝術家，包 括畫家、詩人和劇作家都有巨 大影響。

如此不祥的別名，來自作品的 第二樂章。樂章變調自舒伯特

1817 年創作的一首早期藝術歌

曲。同樣題為「死亡與少女」 的歌曲敘述了一個古老歐洲傳 奇，故事中死亡找上一個即將 出嫁的少女，要求讓他一親芳 澤，不然便會在成婚當日取去 她夫婿的性命。少女猶豫不 決，但死亡卻步步進迫，承諾 讓她在自己懷中安然睡去。死 亡令人恐懼，但同時又給予一 種詭異的安祥感。

舒伯特當時亦體會到絕望的煎 熬，他在 1824 年被確診患有梅 毒（當時是無藥可醫的絕症）。 對此，他曾在一封信中寫道： 「試想像一個不再健康的男人， 他對病情的絕望，只會使情況 愈來愈差，而不會變好。」舒 伯特經常以 D 小調來創作關 於死亡的作品，如這首四重奏 中便有整節以這哀傷的調子入 調。第一樂章以大膽富戲劇性 的方式展開，直白地介紹死亡 的到來。音量的强烈對比加劇 了音樂的張力。樂章以寂靜伴 隨不安收結。

在第二樂章中引用的歌曲旋 律，為變奏提供基礎。持續 如輓歌般的節奏，在音色和音 型隨之變化的同時，表現了死 亡確切的存在。諧謔曲敲打般 的節奏，又呈現出一種鍥而不 捨的感覺。樂章最後以塔朗泰 拉舞曲型式收結。在南意大利 民間傳說中，被毒蜘蛛咬後， 病人便會舞動不止； 又有一說 法是指解毒的方法便是跳舞。

舒伯特在此引用了另一首名為

〈魔王〉，講述受害者被死亡的 陰影所籠罩。樂曲速度在最後 一節迅猛加速，演奏家衝刺到 最後的不祥終止式，回歸到樂 曲開始時的黑暗。

Schubert: String Quartet No. 14 in D minor, D810, “Death and the Maiden”

Schubert wrote his Quartet in D minor in 1824, when he was only 27 years old. Together with the other two large-scale quartets he composed before his early death in 1828 (his catalogue includes 15 completed string quartets), it is regarded as a monument of the genre. “Death and the Maiden”, as the D minor Quartet is known, has also had a significant influence on other composers and even on artists in other disciplines, including painters, poets and playwrights.

The macabre nickname comes from the second movement, in which Schubert varies a theme he adapted from an earlier art song he composed in 1817. Also titled “Death and the Maiden”, the song recounts an oldEuropean tale in which Death approaches a bride-to-be and demands that she submit to his caressing arms, or he will take her future husband on the day of their wedding. She hesitates, but Death repeatedly asks her, promising her a gentle and peaceful slumber in his embrace. Here Death is terrifying and at the same time an eerily soothing presence.

Schubert himself was experiencing an agony of despair over his diagnosis of syphilis in 1824 (an often fatal disease with no cure at the time). "Imagine a man whose health will never be right again, and who, in sheer despair over this, even makes things worse

instead of better," he wrote in a letter. Schubert often used the key of D minor when writing about death, and whole sections of this quartet unfold in this melancholy key. The first movement opens in bold dramatic fashion, bluntly announcing Death’s presence. Striking contrasts of volume add to the tension. The movement ends quietly, but uneasily.

The song melody quoted in the second movement provides the basis for a set of variations. An insistent, dirge-like rhythm suggests the unyielding presence of Death as the harmonic colours and figurations are varied around it. The hammering rhythms of the scherzo suggest another kind of insistence. The finale takes the form of a tarantella: a restless dance that, in Southern Italian folk tradition, was believed to result from (or was perhaps intended to cure) the toxic bite of a spider. Schubert here quotes from another song— Der Erlkönig (“The Erlking”) —about the spectre of death haunting its victim. The tempo accelerates even more frantically in the final section, as the players rush towards the ominous last cadence—back into the darkness with which the quartet began.

炫弦之音——伊斯美弦樂四重奏 Korean String Quartet to Cast a Dazzling Spell

由全女班組成的伊斯美弦樂四重奏在弦樂界迅速崛起，是當今備受矚目的樂壇新星。「 Esmé 」一字來 自法語，意謂「被愛」。樂團始於 2016 年，由四位年輕韓裔女樂手在德國科隆音樂學院成立。

The members of Esmé Quartet, one of the most dynamic and refined string quartets of its generation, are true rising stars of the classical music world. Its name, Esmé, is taken from an old French word that means “to be loved”. The group was formed in 2016 when four young South Korean musicians met at the Hochschule für Musik in Cologne, Germany.

Quartet became an instant sensation

Known for lyrical, almost operatic performances that always seem to tell a story, the Esmé Quartet launched its international career and became an instant sensation after winning the first prize and four special prizes in the prestigious Wigmore Hall International String Quartet Competition in London in 2018, becoming the first all-female group to be crowned with this honour. In the summer of the same year, the quartet served as the quartet in residence at the Aix-en-Provence Festival.

After these initial breakthroughs, Esmé Quartet received invitations to perform in recitals and concerts all over the globe, from Europe to the US and Asia, appearing at distinguished music festivals and concert halls such as the Lucerne Festival and Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie, among others. Esmé Quartet’s debut recording, which was released in 2020, received a five-star review from Diapason magazine, praising the “lyricism and airy limpidity” and “unexpected depth and appeal” of the Quartet’s performance.

A repertoire of rich nuance

In its Hong Kong debut recital, Esmé Quartet will bring three masterpieces of the string quartet repertoire to the Hong Kong Arts Festival audience. Joseph Haydn is acknowledged as the main composer who defined the string quartet genre

as we know it today. His String Quartet in E-flat major, Op. 33, No. 2 is a favourite among quartet lovers for its wittily designed final movement, which teases the listeners’ expectations with unexpected long pauses and other surprises, hence its nickname, “The Joke”.

Another programme highlight is Schubert's String Quartet No. 14 in D minor, D 810, known as "Death and the Maiden". The monumental piece is considered one of the most important compositions in the chamber music repertoire. Schubert composed it in 1824 when his physical and mental health was deteriorating. Schubert wrote to a friend in a letter: "Imagine a man whose health will never be right again, and who, in sheer despair over this, even makes things worse instead of better. Imagine a man, I say, whose most brilliant hopes have perished." Death and the Maiden is the title of a short poem by the 18th-century German poet Matthias Claudius and Schubert set the poem to music in 1817. He reused the opening funeral march in the second movement of this string quartet, which gave the piece its nickname. The overarching melancholic writing makes it impossible to ignore the shadow of death hanging over Schubert at the time.

The Esmé Quartet will also perform in two other Hong Kong Arts Festival programmes this year. In Voices of Hope and Togetherness—A Choral and

Orchestral Gathering Esmé

Quartet will be joined by the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra and conductor Wilson Ng to perform John Adams’ Absolute Jest, a concerto for string quartet and orchestra. The Quartet will also appear in the programme The Book of Water, an elegant chamber music theatre project created and directed by acclaimed Dutch composer Michel van der Aa.

Cellist Yeeun Heo is considered one of the most promising young cellists and chamber musicians of her generation. She was born in Seoul in 1992 and received her first cello lessons at the age of six. She graduated from the Seoul National University, with Profs Chungsim Baek and Jungran Lee. She has been influenced by many artists through masterclasses with David Geringas, Alto Noras, Danjulo Ishizaka, Wen-Sinn Yang, Jian Wang and Myunghwa Chung.

She is currently studying at the Hochschule für Musik und Tanz Cologne under the tutelage

of Johannes Moser and also studying her Master of Chamber Music at the Musikhochschule Lübeck with Heime Müller as a member of the Esmé Quartet.

She has won many top prizes at national music competitions in South Korea since a young age. Her great passion for chamber music has led her to attend many international festivals and play in concert venues such as the Kumho Art Hall and Chamber Music Hall of the Seoul Art Centre, the Great Mountains Music Festival and McGill International String Quartet Academy in Montreal as a member of the YUL String Quartet from 2012 to 2015.
