Moshe Denburg: The Ocean of Tears　絲竹室內樂（委託創作、世界首演）

樂團/小巨人絲竹樂團 指揮/陳志昇 作曲/Moshe Denburg 2020.11.18 絲竹室內樂系列 絲弦情51 地點/台灣.台北市.國家演奏廳 錄影/亞格影音 張興漢 錄音/王昭惠 小巨人絲竹樂團：http://www.littlegiant.idv.tw/index.htm 本曲是一幅悲傷和反思的聲景，由小巨人絲竹樂團委託創作，於今年三月COVID-19疫情流行前獲得 Canada Council for the Arts 補助，在社交疏離的幾個月中，剛好因此得到經費方面的支持！ 我試著於此曲中運用國樂器營造出一種悲傷的氛圍。國樂器給我的感覺，雖非全部，但整體來說音色偏亮，比較是喜慶的聲響，需要運用較暗的音色才能營造出悲傷的感覺，本曲藉由旋律及和聲的設計，試圖表現出這種陰鬱的情緒。 我試圖回想當今瀰漫於世界的那份悲哀，除了疫情流行的因素外，也由於政治和社會結構轉變的緣故，我們似乎忘記了彼此的連結，實際的強化了我們之間的分離。惟有當我們開始彼此分享那些承繼於全人類集體意識中的悲傷時，我們才能共同克服這種不團結的狀態。本曲即為我的嘗試，就像許多音樂界、乃至藝術界普遍的方向，試圖朝著我們現今人性中迫切需要的共享意識邁出一步。 The Ocean of Tears is meant to be a sonic picture of sadness and of reflection. It was embarked upon after a commission was secured from the Canada Council for the Arts. Maestro Chih-Sheng Chen of the Little Giant Chinese Chamber Orchestra of Taiwan, and Lan Tung, leader of the Sound of Dragon Ensemble (Vancouver, Canada), suggested that I compose a work in two variations - one for Maesto Chen's Chinese Chamber Orchestra, and a second arrangement for the Sound of Dragon Ensemble. Povidentially, the commission was secured just before the COVID19 pandemic was declared, in March of 2020, so I was gainfully at work during the months of social distancing in 2020! The challenge I presented myself was to evoke a sense of sadness utilizing the Chinese instrumentarium. I have always found Chinese instruments - not all but overall - to be bright in timbre, evoking almost a celebratory sound. Feelings of sadness, to my ears, require somewhat darker timbres. The Ocean of Tears tries to utilize melodies and harmonies that accord with this more sombre mood. I tried to reflect upon the sadness in our world today, partly due to the pandemic, but also due to changing political and social configurations which seem to be making us forget our connectedness, and in fact to emphasize our separateness. It is only when we share in the consciousness of the sadness that all human beings are heir to, that we are able to overcome disunity. So, as with much of music, and indeed with art in general, The Ocean of Tears is an attempt to take a step towards this much needed awareness of our common humanity. We acknowledge the support of the Canada Council for the Arts in the commissioning of The Ocean of Tears by Moshe Denburg.
