Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺灣藝術大學 === 表演藝術研究所 === 96 === The study on Taiwan aboriginal music has been mainly about oral music. However, the works composed by aboriginal artists has been richer and more complex. Among aboriginal artists, De-Fu Hu is one of the leading figures. He has started composing since 1970. One of the well-know features of his music is that his works are done independently from composing to performing, which is the ability that young aboriginal artists lacks. Hu’s works are not about romantic themes but about the issues that aboriginals have encountered. Hu’s choices to discuss those issues in his works have resulted from his life experiences. This research is composed of three aspects through interview with Hu. First is the “memory,” and this section is the retrospect of Hu’s life from birth to 2007; second, the “musical creation,” the analysis of his music and the features of his works. The last is the exploration on how the “ethnic consciousness” has been formed and later presented in his works.
