Description
Summary:碩士 === 國立臺北藝術大學 === 音樂學系碩士在職專班 === 97 === Deh-Ho Lai, one of the most representatine and impressive composer in Taiwan. As deeply influenced by Wei-Liang Shih and Tsang-Houei Hsu, he further believes that composition is laid on the foundation of homeland and its people to face the upcoming challenges. Deh-Ho Lai insists to create a sound of Taiwan. This thesis aims to, first of all, discuss his emphasis and insistence on traditional cultures via the different periods of Lai’s musical pieces. Besides, it presents how Lai represents his own aesthetics views in his works of music in a concrete way. Last but not least, this thesis, by means of analyzing his works of music, further does a research into Lai’s ability to integrate his traditional cultural/musical background knowledge with the modern composing skills. The thesis contains, step by step, the biography of Lai’s life as a musician, his Nationalistic upbringing and education, a chronological list of Lai’s works, his ideals of creation/composition, his viewpoints of modern music; finally, this thesis will take for examples his Chung Miao (1975), The Lunar New Year Festival Suite (1979), Dialect I - Association of Pei-Kuan (1995 ), DialectⅡ - Association of Nan-Kuan (1997), The War of Chu and Han (2001), to show how Lai makes good use of elements of traditional Taiwanese cultures and how he masters incorporating Western and Oriental modern composing skills into his creation/composition.
