今天窗外细雨沙沙,应该落雪的冬季却下着小雨,虽然反常,还是很美。早上起来,聆听巴赫的《B小调弥撒曲》。

西方古典音乐中,我最喜欢巴赫的《B小调弥撒曲》,作为天主教徒,不难理解这部作品,聆听它,就如同置身于一个美丽神圣的弥撒。《B小调弥撒曲》,BWV232,是巴赫所写成的一首大篇幅拉丁弥撒套曲。创作时间经历25年。最先完成的可追溯至1724年,最后于作曲家去世前一年(即1749年)才被编成现时的样式。

巴赫出身于虔诚的路德派信徒家庭,一生基本为路德派基督教堂服务,那么他为什么创作了如此辉煌巨大的罗马天主教拉丁弥撒曲?这个音乐史上的谜一直为人所争执讨论,我看到有人甚至猜测巴赫是个Closet Catholic(披着路德教外衣的天主教徒)。这个问题只能巴赫本人解答。无论如何,我认为巴赫对耶稣基督的信仰是真诚的,是坚定不移的,也是最感人的。

结构上,巴赫依循了传统弥撒曲的五个部份。可是在标题和编排上,却不是沿用传统的划分方式。他把全曲分为四个部份:第一部份称为“弥撒”(Missa),包括了垂怜经和光荣颂;第二部份为“尼西亚信经”(Symbolum Nicenum),相应为信经;第三部份是圣哉经,这和拉丁弥撒相同;最后是“赞美颂、迎主曲、羔羊经及请赐平安”(Osanna, Benedictus, Agnus Dei et Dona nobis pacem),其中在圣哉经中,巴赫把本来罗马天主教所采用的“你的光明充满了天地”(Pleni sunt coeli et terra Gloria tua)变成为路德派所采纳的“祂的光明充满了天地”(Pleni sunt coeli et terra Gloria ejus)。

我借鉴拉丁文,英文的资料,按着自己的理解把这部作品翻译成中文。现代西方好几种语言都发展于拉丁文,如果你对照拉丁文与英文,就会发现相同之处很多。歌词很简单,就是弥撒祈祷文,反复不停的合唱与重唱。
