垃圾車撥放曲(二)----給愛麗絲...=_="

其實垃圾車的音樂除了”少女的祈禱”之外，還有一首就是”給愛麗絲”。在”少女的祈禱”這篇文當中就有介紹過是貝多芬所做的曲子，這曲子除了用在垃圾車來臨時的撥放外，也是電話等候鈴的音樂，或者是門鈴的音樂。

「給愛麗絲」是一首技巧簡易，短小可愛的鋼琴小品。是貝多芬為某個心儀的女性所寫，而且用了「愛麗絲」這個假名作為曲名，讓人始終猜不透他到底是寫給誰。這首鋼琴曲是貝多芬去世後才發現的遺作，因此沒有作品號碼。總之，這首「給愛麗絲」的通俗名曲，可能是貝多芬三十歲前後的作品。

This is the real LOVE story about ”Für Elise” (Voor Elise, For Elise, Za Elizu....etc)
Did you know that the original title was Fur Therese?
---------------------------------------- ---
Fur Elise” (Für Elise) is probably Beethoven`s most popular piano work, which he dedicated to one of his female piano pupils in 1810.
Beethoven had made the acquaintance of the Malfatti family in Vienna in 1809 through Count Gleichenstein. He, Beethoven, was not only impressed by the culture, refinement and musical taste of the parents, but also by the beauty and intellect of the daughters Therese and Anna. Therese was a very good piano player and became Beethoven`s pupil; she was also the niece of Beethoven`s physician Dr. Malfatti. All this made the Malfatti house very attractive for Beethoven and also resulted in an unusually warm relationship between Beethoven and the Malfattis and a less severe regard for conventional forms. Though Beethoven almost certainly fell in love with Therese, the social difference was too great and nothing is known of a particular intimacy.
Experts are very sure that ”Fur Elise” (Für Elise) is dedicated to Beethovens beloved Therese Malfatti. L. Nohl, Beethoven`s biographer possessed the original script and published the work in 1867, but he misinterpreted Beethoven`s handwriting -- instead of Therese he read ”For Elise on 27. April, a dedication from L. v. Bthvn.”
This kind of work for solo piano is often referred to as a bagatelle because it is quite short. It is in a-minor and is arranged like a short rondo. The initial melody of „Fur Elise” (Für Elise) is repeated several times and is interrupted by contradictory episodes in neighbouring keys
---------------------------------------- ---

This Bagatelle was written in about 1810.

One of the versions of the story goes like this:

Beethoven wrote it as a birthday present for one of his pupils, Miss Therese Malfatti. He was probably broke or didn’t realize what women would really enjoy!? He was in love with her and even asked her to marry him. Unfortunately, nothing came out of this, as Therese’s father (Dr.Giovanni Malfatti, who treated Beethoven in his final illness) objected to the union and she married Baron Von Drosdick in 1816.

Because of his very scruffy handwriting ( he probably wrote in old German) his publisher just spelled it as Fur Elise. In a letter of May 1810 to Therese, Beethoven refers to the Bagatelle - ”In this letter, beloved Therese, you are receiving what I promised you.”
