德国之声(因个人时间有限故只能节录并简单翻译还请见谅) Munich Philharmonic drops star conductor Valery Gergiev over Putin ties https://reurl.cc/7eLR2l Munich's mayor, Dieter Reiter, issued an ultimatum on Friday, requiring conductor Valery Gergiev to denounce the "brutal war of aggression that Putin is waging against Ukraine" before February 28, or be dismissed as the principal conductor of the Munich Philharmonic orchestra, three years before the expiration of his contract. 慕尼黑市长Dieter Reiter於2月25日向Valery Gergiev下达最後通牒，要求他在28日前就普丁入侵乌克兰一事表达谴责 The Russian maestro did not react, leading the mayor to officially announce the conductor's dismissal on Tuesday. 由於Valery Gergiev未予回应，慕尼黑市政府在1日确定解职其慕尼黑爱乐首席指挥职务 "Munich has parted ways with chief conductor Valery Gergiev. With immediate effect, there will be no further concerts by the Munich Philharmonic under his direction," Reiter said in a press statement. Dieter Reiter表示，慕尼黑爱乐自此与Valery Gergiev分道扬镳，未来不再有他带领的音乐会 "I would have expected him to reconsider and revise his very positive assessment of the Russian ruler. He didn't," Reiter added. "In the current situation, however, a clear signal for the orchestra, its audience, the public and city politics would have been essential in order to be able to continue working together." Dieter Reiter表示，原本希望Valery Gergiev能够改变他对普丁的力挺态度，但是他没有，而基於当前情势，市政府需要向各界清楚表明立场 "Long-standing support for Vladimir Putin" Valery Gergiev, 68, was until now one of the world's most sought-after conductors. Valery Gergiev是世界让最炙手可热的指挥家之一 Even though he will no longer lead the Munich Philharmonic, he remains the general director and artistic director of the prestigious Mariinsky Theater and artistic director of the White Nights Festival in Saint Petersburg. Valery Gergiev依然是马林斯基剧院艺术总监 His close ties to Putin have been an ongoing source of controversy throughout the past decade. Valery Gergiev与普丁的亲密关系在过去几年来一直受到批评 He declared his loyalty to the Russian president regarding the annexation of Crimea, and took part in concerts in bombarded Palmyra alongside the Syrian army. Gay rights activists had pressured him to denounce the Russian leader's homophobic laws in 2013; his reaction was deemed unsatisfactory. Valery Gergiev曾表态支持普丁并吞克里米亚，并与叙利亚政府军合办音乐会 Beyond the Munich Philharmonic position, a number of international concerts that were to be conducted by Gergiev have been canceled. New York's Carnegie Hall was the first to dismiss the Russian maestro, indicating on Friday that he would be dropped from a series of performances planned at the concert hall. Similarly, La Scala in Milan had also required the conductor to publicly appeal for a "peaceful solution" to the conflict, stating it would otherwise cut short his engagement conducting Tchaikovsky's "The Queen of Spades," scheduled for early March. Gergiev's reaction never came. "I think we can rule him out at this stage," Milan Mayor Giuseppe Sala told reporters on Monday. Valery Gergiev还遭到纽约卡内基音乐厅取消接下来的演奏会，米兰史卡拉剧院也下过类似慕尼黑的最後通牒，由於Valery Gergiev同样未予回应，其歌剧「黑桃皇后」可能将被取消 -- Come away, O human child! To the waters and the wild With a faery, hand in hand. For the world's more full of weeping than you can understand. Yeats "The Stolen Child" --
