Interpreting Francis Poulenc's Piano Music

浦浪克（Francis Poulenc，1899-1963）為法國現代樂派最重要之鋼琴作曲家之一，作有三十四首鋼琴獨奏曲，於二十世紀佔有一席之地。本研究擬就鋼琴演奏及教學角度，探討浦浪克鋼琴作品及其彈奏技巧。首先，將先對浦浪克生平作簡略概述，再探討浦浪克鋼琴作品之曲調、和聲、調性等特色，最後探討其鋼琴作品之詮釋要領--速度、踏瓣及觸鍵技巧，並以浦浪克重要鋼琴作品為實例，列舉說明具體練習步驟，提供演奏者參考，如《Improvisations》、《Nocturnes》、《Intermezzo in A-flat Major》及《Les Soirees de Nazelles》。本文期能提供鋼琴演奏及教學上之參考，盼能使演奏、教學者更進一步認識浦浪克及二十世紀法國鋼琴音樂，並藉此研究拋磚引玉，促進研究現代鋼琴音樂之風氣，提昇鋼琴教育之質與量。

Francis Poulenc（1899-1963）is one of the most important French composers of the twentieth century. In the last decade, the prolific Poulenc research has resulted in numerous publications（books, articles, and recordings）and Poulenc's music has made its way into concert halls everywhere. However, Poulenc's piano music is still relatively unknown to many piano students in Taiwan. Thus the purpose of this paper is to offer an interpretation of Poulenc's piano music. After providing a brief biography and discussing the characteristics（melody, harmony, tonality, etc.） of Poulenc's compositions, the author will investigate the interpretation of Poulenc's music in terms of tempo, pedal and touch. Musical examples, drawn from important works of Poulenc, are included to illustrate the suggested practicing procedure. It is hoped that this paper may serve as a reference for piano instructors and/or students.
