葛羅夫 爵士 指揮 丹尼爾 . 瓊斯 : 交響曲 NO. 4 ( 回憶 狄倫湯瑪斯 ) ,NO. 7 / Daniel Jones : Symphony No. 4 (In Memory Of Dylan Thomas),NO. 7 - conducted by Sir Charles Groves

               ( EMI / Welsh Arts Council Oriel Records  ORM 1002,1979年 LP ) rec. 18-19 April 1972, Studio No. 1 Abbey Road, London 
               (  Producer – Christopher Bishop,Engineer – Stuart Eltham )



導演 Christopher Nolan 的電影 Interstellar ( 星際效應 ) 中,有首詩多次在劇中穿場。尤其是 Michael Caine 飾演的布蘭德教授一唸再唸的這詩 Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night ( 別溫馴地步入美好的夜 ) 表明了人類面臨環境崩壞時應勇敢應對不得荀安的心態令人動容。此詩就是英國早逝詩人 Dylan Thomas 最著名的一首詩。最近 BBC 為了記念Daniel Jones : Symphony No. 4 (In Memory Of Dylan Thomas)  創作 60 週年誌於 30 Oct 2014 由指揮家 Grant Llewellyn 進行公演。


本唱片即是他的朋友 Daniel Jones 為回憶他所寫的 Symphony No. 4 (In Memory Of Dylan Thomas) 這録音原先是 EMI ( ADS 2855 )發行,最近 CD 則轉為 LYRITA  公司 ( SRCD.329 ),是目前可尋得的孤本。以演奏而言,典型英式風格的交響曲是頗值得一聽。但别太寄於厚望,還是没有那種一曲入魂的旋律。説明白點,您大概短期間不會有再聽的慾望。而 NO. 7 就成熟多了是更好的作品。

錄音方面是由 EMI 的王牌 (  Producer – Christopher Bishop,Engineer – Stuart Eltham ),他們和指揮 Sir Charles Groves 制作英國作品和西貝流士一系列錄音 是 TAS 的常勝軍。素質當然好

Daniel Jones (12 September 1881 – 4 December 1967) was a London-born British phonetician who studied under Paul Passy, professor of phonetics at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes at the Sorbonne (University of Paris). He was head of the Department of Phonetics at University College, London.











Dylan Marlais Thomas (27 October 1914 – 9 November 1953) was a Welsh poet and writer, whose works include the poems "Do not go gentle into that good night" and "And death shall have no dominion"; the 'play for voices' Under Milk Wood; and stories and radio broadcasts such as A Child's Christmas in Wales and Portrait of the Artist as a Young Dog. He became widely popular in his lifetime, and remained so after his premature death at the age of 39 in New York City, but had by then acquired a reputation, which he encouraged, as a "roistering, drunken and doomed poet












Sir Charles Barnard Groves (10 March 1915 – 20 June 1992) was an English conductor










" Do Not Go Gentle Into that Good Night "


Do not go gentle into that good night, 
Old age should burn and rave at close of day; 
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.


Though wise men at their end know dark is right, 
Because their words had forked no lightning they 
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright 
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay, 
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight, 
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way, 
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight 
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay, 
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height, 
Curse, bless me now with your fierce tears, I pray. 
Do not go gentle into that good night. 
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.


" 別溫馴地步入美好的夜 " 


別溫馴地步入美好的夜,
晚年應在遲暮時燃燒並咆哮;
憤怒,憤怒地抗拒瀕死光焰。


縱然智者在大限時知悉黑暗合乎倫常,
因他們的語言再也無法叉出雷電,他們
拒絕溫馴地步入美好的夜。

行善者,在最後的浪潮旁,泣訴曾如此璀璨光明,
他們翩舞於綠色海灣的脆弱言行,
憤怒,憤怒地抗拒瀕死光焰。

狂人們,飛行時追逐並歌誦太陽,
他們省悟,已太遲,在途中哀傷,
別溫馴地走入美好的夜。

死者,臨終時以迷茫的視線張望,
盲目仍可像流星一樣燃燒並雀躍,
憤怒,憤怒地抗拒瀕死光焰。

而你,我的父親,於哀傷之高潮,
咒我,佑我,以你驚懼的淚,我禱告,
別溫馴地步入美好的夜,

憤怒,憤怒地抗拒瀕死光焰。
