Recitative is a passage in opera, oratorio, cantata, and similar works sung as though speaking. Meaning “recitation” in Italian, it uses words' natural rhythms and accents.
Recitative is used to explain dramatic situations and plot developments, contrasting with arias that sing beautiful melodies. Recitative does not exist as an independent musical piece but connects to arias and other pieces.
There are 2 types of recitative: harpsichord-accompanied and orchestra-accompanied. Harpsichord-accompanied recitative is called “recitativo secco,” with “secco” meaning “dry.”
レチタティーヴォとは、オペラやオラトリオ、カンタータなどで、話し言葉で語るように歌われる部分です。イタリア語で「叙唱」を意味し、ことばの自然なリズムやアクセントを生かして歌われます。
レチタティーヴォは、劇の状況や物語の展開を説明するために用いられ、美しい旋律を歌い上げるアリアとは対照的です。レチタティーヴォは独立した楽曲として存在することはなく、アリアなどに結び付きます。
レチタティーヴォには、チェンバロ伴奏とオーケストラ伴奏の2種類があります。チェンバロ伴奏のレチタティーヴォは「レチタティーヴォ・セッコ」と呼ばれ、「セッコ」は「乾いた」という意味です。
