"White Peony" Concert-Arrangement 白牡丹音樂會改編曲

by Chi-Hsin Yi

        “White Peony” is an old Taiwanese song written by Chiu-Lin Chen in 1936. With unique beauty of its pentatonic melody, this song represents an interesting stylistic mixture: the traditional music of Taiwan and the pop-song of the 1930s.Chi-Hsin Yi's concert-arrangement is written in late-Romantic style, featured with brilliant sonority and virtuosic piano technique.

      〈白牡丹〉原為1936年的台語流行歌曲,由古倫美亞公司錄製發行成唱片。陳達儒創作的歌詞以純白的牡丹花比喻女子的純潔美麗。作曲者陳秋霖為歌仔戲樂師出身,其作品多具歌仔戲音樂風格,此首〈白牡丹〉旋律使用五聲音階,溫柔婉約。

        此鋼琴改編曲承襲後浪漫風格,有多聲部複雜的鋼琴織體與華麗音響。第一段中左手以輕柔的八分音符襯托女高音音域的歌曲旋律,右手同時彈奏十六分音符伴奏聲部,具優雅高貴之氣質。第二段速度較輕快,主旋律與三連音伴奏聲部交錯,呈現動態美感。第三段中主旋律前句出現於中音域,高音域的雙音與低音聲部構成立體、豐富的音響;後句以高音域回答,與前句形成宛如男女對唱的效果。結尾以和弦與對位聲部表現熱烈情感。

Fantasy on Old Taiwanese Melodies 台灣老歌幻想曲

by Chi-Hsin Yi

      This fantasy is based on three Taiwanese songs of the 1930s. The painful tune of Zan-Fu Yao's "Sadness" gives the music an atmosphere of endless sorrow. "Dancing Era", originally a Foxtrot in Yu-Hsian Deng's song, is turned into a brisk theme in 2/4 with a virtuosic variation as a reminiscence of the pre-war Taiwan. The warmth of the major tune of "Wine Cup of Sorrow" (also by Zan-Fu Yao) stands between the two returns of "Sadness" as consolation. Three themes are arranged into a rondo form, giving the fantasy a narrative quality.

      此曲將三首三零年代的台灣老歌串聯,發展成敘事性的幻想曲。採用輪旋曲式(ABACA),三首歌曲分別為A、B與C三主題。

      第一主題為姚讚福〈心酸酸〉(1936),姚式曲風傳承自歌仔戲,有「新式哭調仔」之稱,悲傷哀怨、如泣如訴的旋律,形成此曲的基調。第二主題為鄧雨賢〈跳舞時代〉(1932),採用當時流行之狐步舞韻律,有大調的明亮爽朗,與第一主題形成對比。第三主題為姚讚福〈悲戀的酒杯〉(1936),雖為失戀歌曲卻為大調、有撫慰人心的溫暖。

      相較於前後樂章,此幻想曲有較質樸的音響,一來表現樂曲悲戚之情,二來反映三零年代老歌的風格特色。

"Springtime Hills" Concert-Paraphrase 滿山春色演繹曲

by Chi-Hsin Yi

       Based on two Taiwanese songs of the 1930s, “Springtime Hills” (Chiu-Lin Chen) and “Periwinkle” (Tong Su), this paraphrase is a virtuosic piano work in late-Romantic style with "three-hand" texture and grand sonority.

       〈滿山春色〉為陳達儒與陳秋霖合作的另一首著名歌曲,1939年由古倫美亞唱片發行。歌詞描寫戀愛中男女遊山玩水,春意盎然,逍遙自在。陳秋霖的旋律也是運用五聲音階,洋溢著青春朝氣,有別於台灣早年大部分歌曲之哀怨悲情,為難得的佳作。

        此鋼琴演繹曲為描繪春天欣欣向榮的氣象,將原歌曲旋律做多種變奏與自由發展:開頭的主題充滿活力,接著有興奮熱情的強烈節奏、有鳥鳴般的清亮音響,也有浪漫溫柔的情歌。中段的船歌改編自蘇桐〈日日春〉,為幽靜愜意之景。末段的主題再現以快速上下行的音階環繞著主旋律,形成「三手織體」(Three-Hand Texture) 效果,主旋律由低攀升至極高音域,在欣喜歡呼中結束。華麗的炫技風格,將鋼琴音響發揮得淋漓盡致。
