大家怎樣看這個問題?
Bernstein都曾在與Glenn Gould 演出Brahms Piano Concerto No.1前提出這問題...

在此提出點點自己的愚見...
可能我也是玩樂器的,我會偏向是獨奏者做大老,不知大家認為如何?

As the Chinese name 協奏曲 suggests, it should be a collaboration, a partnership of musicians, the soloist and conductor in particular, the soloist and the orchestra in a larger sense.

i think it is pretty much depends on the charisma of the soloist, if the soloist is a renowned interpreter like alfred brendel, while the conductor is just a local unknown one, the soloist has to be the boss.

但倒轉來說,若soloist是後生仔,conductor是renowned...那會是conductor做主吧???
見過一個例子(應該有很多)是1997Berliner Philharmoniker的 Tribute to Carmen中...
Pletnev plays the Paganini Rhapsody by Rachmaninov,他全程都在看著Abbado的手勢去彈,同時Abbado亦沒太特別留意Pletnev...
若代入soloist的角度看,好像有點心有不甘,有點兒可說是受制於conductor,但畢竟跟你合作的是個指揮大師,機會難得...
心情兩個字形容----矛盾

I think the soloist should be the boss, actually it depend who is more 'famous' la, hehehe!

協奏曲以前也叫競奏曲,從字面上是樂隊和獨奏互相交替奏出主題,你追我逐, 在音樂上, 獨奏和樂隊都是梅花間竹輪流作主導,我未曾聽過一首協奏曲是由獨奏由頭帶到尾,從聽眾的角度, 大多數都是將目光注視在獨奏者的演奏技巧和音樂演繹.

每位獨奏家的風格不同, 學院派的大多顧及樂隊, 很少會自己顧自已演奏而放甩樂隊
