The Bruckner rhythm is a 2 + 3 (duplet + triplet) or 3 + 2 rhythm in Anton Bruckner's symphonic music, where it occurs prevalently,〔Milton John Cross & David Ewen, ''Encyclopedia of the Great Composers and Their Music''. New York: Doubleday (1962): 158. "The second element is a rhythmic pattern so often employed by the composer that it is known as the "Bruckner rhythm."〕〔p. 59, Hubert-Schönzeler (1978) Hans. London ''Bruckner'' Marion Boyars Publishers Ltd.〕 and in many different, varied ways.〔John Williamson, "The Brucknerian symphony: an overview" ''The Cambridge Companion to Bruckner'', ed. John Williamson. Cambridge, Cambridge University Press (2004): 79. "Yet even so instantly recognizable a rhythmic tic can be used with great variety."〕 One example is in the main theme of the first movement of his Symphony No. 4 in E-flat major, from bars 43 forward:〔Benjamin Korstvedt, "Aspects of Bruckner's approach to symphonic form" ''The Cambridge Companion to Bruckner'', ed. John Williamson. Cambridge, Cambridge University Press (2004): 186.〕 The Bruckner rhythm can occur separate of a melody (that is, on a single pitch), and this is the only way it occurs in the Symphony No. 2 in C minor.〔Derek Watson, ''Bruckner''. New York: Schuster & Macmillan (1997): 81〕 In the Symphony No. 6 in A major the Bruckner rhythm occurs to a much greater extent than in previous works, in several parts at slightly different times. At first it occurs as a string ostinato high in the violins' range against a melody of different rhythm in the cellos,〔(Williamson, 2004): 79〕 while at bars 195 - 209 it serves to articulate hexatonic cycle block chords.〔Kevin Swinden, "Bruckner and harmony" ''The Cambridge Companion to Bruckner'', ed. John Williamson. Cambridge, Cambridge University Press (2004): 222. "The orchestral texture through this passage is thick, articulating block chords in the 'Bruckner-rhythm' that characterizes the movement, supporting a reprise of the first theme of the symphony."〕 The rhythm occurs in somewhat more "manageable" form in Symphony No. 8 in C minor, where it usually occurs in the same way in all the parts. The Bruckner rhythm also occurs in the works of other composers, such as in Howard Hanson's Romantic Symphony, where it occurs mostly in the horns' and trumpets' parts. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bruckner rhythm」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
