【音樂】 霧社一九三Ｏ

《霧社一九三○》以霧社事件為主題，並取材台灣泰雅族生活歌謠作為音樂動機，特地為紀念此一抗日運動所譜曲，獻給古今中外追求自由與和平的人類。
　　泰雅人堅信祖先是從巨木（Poso Kofuni）中誕生，當面對死亡的煎熬時，族人選擇在巨木下自縊，讓靈魂歸向祖靈境界。樂曲一開始「極度不安的緩板」由低音樂器與定音鼓組成的小二度音程節奏群，及由低音笙奏出陰沉旋律（由二度音程交替組合），形成「巨木」主題，代表絕對的衝突與暗示霧社事件的發生是無可避免的悲劇。
　　接下來分別以人（莫那．魯道）、物（泰雅族單簧口琴）、事（馬赫坡岩窟）串連。「如歌的慢板」以遠鏡頭方式捕捉到泰雅村落在日本人統治下的原貌，族人哀歌四起 ，彷彿生活在永無止境的煉獄。在描述莫那．魯道的「沉重的行板」中，試圖刻畫莫那．魯道身為馬赫坡（Mahebo）頭目的長子，面對日本人高壓統治與族人受到壓榨欺侮的種種壓力，似乎必須做出抉擇。其中並以三弦、木琴與新笛模擬單簧口琴，彷彿不斷提醒著他，身為頭所應該擔負的責任與擔當。
　　決定起義的念頭落實後（此處為全曲中心點），鋼琴上下滑音與樂隊尖銳齊奏，象徵容忍已到極限，起義抗日勢在必行，在十月二十七日台灣神社大祭典時，利用運動會升旗唱日本國歌「君之代」為信號，衝進會場，發動總攻擊，殺死日本人一百三十四人，此舉震驚全台灣。
　　日本派出大批軍警鎮壓，並連同「味方蕃」（日人使用「以夷制夷」脅逼少數泰雅族組成襲擊隊）大肆討伐。許多婦女帶著幼兒一起上吊自縊，為的是避免耗掉有限的糧食，並且讓抗日志士無後顧之憂和日本人周旋。最後莫那‧魯道見大勢已去帶領族人退守馬赫坡岩窟（緩板），其妻在耕作小屋上吊自縊身亡，莫那．魯道則槍殺兩名孫子後在大斷崖持槍自殺。抗日的泰雅人最後有六百四十四人死亡。音樂再度回到「巨木」，壯烈犧牲的泰雅族人最終將回歸祖靈。
　　最後在配器及樂器上也有一些說明。鋼琴在此曲中以近似擊樂的方式演奏，作曲者看中其多元化的功能與音樂性能，期待能融合與改善部分配器上的弱處。三弦在此曲中一體兩面，水能載舟亦能覆舟，象徵高壓統治必然得到強烈的反撲。在「沉重的行板」中，以模擬單簧口琴的方式來代表泰雅族人承受的壓力，而在運動會快板中極似日本三味線奏法來代表日本人的驚惶失措，並只在這兩個樂段中出現，而在自由板中象徵日本人遭受突擊全數身亡後，就不再出現。
The composition of [Wu She in 1930] is based on the theme of the "Wu She Incident" by adopting the daily ballads of the Tai Ya Tribe in Taiwan for the motif to especially pay memory to such anti-Japanese campaign dedicated to all of the human beings seeking for freedom and peace, domestic and foreign, past and present.
The Tai Ya Tribesmen believe that their ancestors were born from Poso Kofuni （a giant tree） and when facing the struggle against death, they will choose to commit suicide under this giant tree so that their spirits will return back to their mystical paradise. This piece starts with a "largo that is rather reckless" performed by a minor-2 rhythm track formed by low-tone musical instruments and timpani and then the timpani shall play some gloomy melodies
（formed by alternate intervals） to embody the theme of the "Giant Tree" that represents an absolute conflict that implies the occurrence of the Wu She Incident is an unavoidable tragedy.
Next movement connects man （Mona Rudolph）, material （Jew's harp： lubu qaw qaw of the Tai Ya Tribe） and thing （Mahebo Cave of Rocks）. With a "Largo Cantabile" it zooms out to captures the holistic picture that the Tai Ya Tribe looks like under the ruling of the Japanese with tribesmen singing with sorrow everywhere because lives to them seem like a bottomless purgatory. In the "Andante Relegioso" that describes "Mona Rudolph", this piece attempts to depict Mona Rudolph as the eldest son of the chief Mahebo, when faced with the tyrannical ruling of the Japanese that the tribesmen are bullied and oppressed, it seems that he is forced to make some choices. In this, with Trichord, marimba, and Xindi （II pores） to simulate the Jew's harp to seem to remind him endlessly of the duties and responsibilities that he shall bear as a chief. After the notion of deciding to fight against the Japanese is solidified （here comes the center of the whole piece）, the sliding up and down from the piano to comply with the sharp
unison of the band symbolizes his tolerance is reaching to its limit that the revolt against the Japanese is inevitable. Therefore, during the Grand Worshipping Ritual at Taiwan Spiritual Club on Oct. 27, he has taken advantage of the words "Chun Chi Tai" as the signal in the Japanese national anthem at the flag-raising ceremony in the sports meeting to rush into the playground to start a total attack by killing 134 Japanese and that incident shocks the whole Taiwan to hell.
Japanese has dispatched a large army of military policemen to suppress this rebellion and together with "Wei Fang Fan" （a policy of "using the barbarians to boycott against the barbarians to rally the minority of the Tai Ya Tribesmen to form a guerrilla team to start a large-scaled clampdown on such insurrection. Many women have brought their young children to commit suicide by hanging themselves in order to avoid consumption of limited food so that their anti-Japanese warriors can have no holding back to fight against the Japanese. At last when Mona Rudolph feels that the day is lost, he has led the rest of his tribesmen to retreat back to Mahebo Cave of Rocks （largo） with his wife hanging herself in their farming cottage and Mona after Rudolph shooting his two grandsons to death, he kills himself by gun at the great steep cliffs. There are totally 644 deaths of the Tai Ya Tribe for this final battle. Music is back to the "Giant Tree" again because the Tai Ya Tribesmen that died bravely shall return back to their spiritual motherland. Finally he has made some explanation about the musical instruments and their oordination. Piano is played in a manner quite similar to some percussion instrument in this piece that because the composer is interested in its multiple functions and musical natures that he expects to integrate and improve some weaknesses in part of the coordination of the musical instruments. As for Trichord, it signifies it works for both ways that water can carry a boat so can it drown the boat and that means repressive ruling will definitely entail a powerful counterattack. Under the "Andante Relegioso", it delivers the pressures that the Tai Ya Tribesmen have born with a simulation of the sounds of the Jew's harp. And in the Allegro in the sports meeting, a performance with skills quite similar to those from the Japanese Shamisen is herein shows the panic and helplessness of the Japanese and which only occurs in these two paragraphs that will be seen no more when the Random Rhyme of the Chinese Opera in which describes the total deaths of the Japanese after being ambushed is played.
