Ocean of Voices with the Bunun – 2024

Break the wall with sounds. The world is much wider than you thought. 用聲音打破那道高牆 看見比你想像更廣大的世界 聲音的海洋 深入傳統,創造屬於自己的傳統,與布農族一起歌唱。 (English below) ************************************** 聲音的海洋 ◇ 世界各地的傳統音樂 ◇ 創造自己的民謠 ◇ 和布農族朋友一起歌唱 ◇ 給平常療癒別人的你的平日療癒假期 *************************************   日期: 2024年9月22-25日(週日至週三) 地點:南投埔里-江山樂活, 南投信義鄉   在這三天裡,我們深入探索「聲音的海洋」,我們尋找來自世界各地的未知傳統,聆聽過往的經典並嘗試創作我們自己的版本。您還將學習如何自己或與他人一起即興創作一首傳統歌曲(一首催眠曲?一首祈禱曲?一首歡樂的問候歌?)。如果您已經喜歡唱歌,並且知道自己的聲音有著如此多的色彩。但是只有其中一些色彩在日常生活中表達出來,現在我們要擴展這種創造性和聲音的潛力,一起看見自己聲音的光譜。 加入我們,一同慶祝人類聲音的力量和潛藏在其中的創造力。毫無疑問,你的祖先知道民謠、宗教聖詩、儀式詠唱:讓它們以新的形式再次浮出水面。在我們探索的起點和亮點上,來自南投信義鄉明德部落的布農族非常樂意在他們每週的歌唱會上歡迎我們。你將有機會與他們近距離合唱,並從中學習他們創作複音多聲部歌曲的方式,並嘗試與他們一起合唱。這是對這座我們摯愛島嶼的許多美好傳統之一的親身沉浸,是極少數人曾經擁有的獨特機會!   **************************************  【課程安排】 /第一天 週日/ 16:00-18:00 抵達 & 住宿 Check-in 18:00-19:30 晚餐 19:30-21:00 工作坊介紹 「聲音的海洋」

O TRIOM remembers Michael Vetter

(中文請見下方) During one of my concerts in Taucha, Germany, last month, I asked the audience who knows the name Michael Vetter. Several people raised their hands. But as I expected, many people at the Ancient Trance Festival don’t know his name. Of course, quite a few more may have heard his music in the Age

Last week Kustaa Saski‘s exhibition of tapestries opened in a new location run by the locally-known architect Siu Siu (Cha Cha).
