HIGH LIFE 117 比加介绍说，深圳交响乐团的乐季一般包括约三十场正规音乐会及歌剧，另 有逾五十场在医院、图书馆、博物馆和学校举行的公益表演。他透露说：「我们 每个乐季有十五至二十位客席指挥，基本上所有表演均由不同大师指挥，展现极 为多元的节目安排和演奏风格。」 对比加而言，在深圳交响乐团的工作生活忙碌但极具挑战性，时而甚是累 人，却非常值得。他指出说：「我们明显感到成就感，亦不怯于作创新尝试。」 他补充说，客席指挥往往呈现新的艺术演绎；与他们合作不仅有助于增进音乐史 和音乐演奏方面的知识，更是开拓视野的机会，甚至是难忘的回忆。 「此外，我们每年均有两轮国际巡回演出，每次持续两到四周。近年来，我 们定期与来自『一带一路』各国的乐师合作。我们在中国接待他们，亦获邀到访 他们的国家。」 深圳交响乐团除管理完善外，旗下的国际级硬件设施更是令人赞叹，包括： 位于福田区的深圳音乐厅，其现代感横溢且声乐效果极佳；位于罗湖区的深圳交 响乐团音乐厅；以及选址在宝安区的另一深圳交响乐团音乐厅。这不单纯是「深 圳速度」，而是「深圳之野心，路人皆知」。 「我向来深爱中提琴如天鹅绒般的声调及其极高的可塑性。中提琴的C 调低音俨 如大提琴，其A 调高音却犹如小提琴，甚至是长笛。」 吉之·比加 As Pelka explained, SSO’s concert season typically comprises around 30 concerts andoperas, alongwithmore than50 charityperformances inhospitals, libraries, museums and schools. “We play under the baton of between 15 and 20 guest conductors each season”, he revealed, “performances are therefore remarkably different in programme and style.” According to Pelka, life as a musician at SSO is busy, challenging, at times exhausting but ultimately rewarding. “There is a clear sense of achievement,” he stated, “and we are not afraid to experiment.” He added that working with guest conductors can be an indelible and horizon-widening experience, as they present new possibilities of artistic interpretation, wherefrom one learns so much about musical history and music-making. “On top of all this, we have two rounds of international touring per year, each time between two to four weeks. In recent years, we regularly perform with musicians from the ‘Belt and Road’ countries. We receive them in China and are invited to visit them.” SSO’s excellent planning is complemented by its portfolio of state-of-the-art hardware. In addition to the futuristic Shenzhen Concert Hall in Futian, whose acoustics are superb, there is also the Shenzhen Symphony Orchestra Concert Hall in Luohu, while a new complex is going to be built in Bao’an. Shenzhen’s proverbial speed, it seems, is matched only by its customary ambition. “I have always fallen for the viola’s velvety sound and tremendous versatility. Its bass tone onC is like the cello, while the high tone onA is like the violin, or even the flute.” Jiří Pelka
