Gougalon Scenes from a street theatre 陳銀淑 總譜 博浩版

部 20 分鐘的作品副標題為 "街頭劇院的場景"，最初由現代合奏團和西門子藝術項目為 "走進...... "專案委託創作，並於 2009 年在柏林和法蘭克福首演。最終版本受跨時空樂團委託，於 2012 年在巴黎演出。標題源自古高地德語，指的是作曲家 2008-09 年在香港和廣州旅行時經歷的普魯斯特時刻。在超大螢幕、超現代化建築和閃閃發光的消費殿堂的不遠處，古老而貧窮的居民區的氛圍讓她想起了 20 世紀 60 年代激進現代化之前的首爾，那是一個以貧窮和軍事獨裁為特徵的時期。她尤其想起了兒時在首爾郊區多次見到的一個藝人團。Gougalon 是一種'想像中的民間音樂'，它風格化、自成一體，表面上看似原始"

原文簡介:
Sub-titles ‘Scenes from a street theatre’, this 20-minute work was originally commissioned by Ensemble Modern and the Siemens Arts Program for the project “into …”, and first performed in Berlin and Frankfurt in 2009. The final version was commissioned by Ensemble intercontemporain for performance in Paris in 2012. The title, derived from Old High German, refers to a Proustian moment experienced by the composer on a trip to Hong Kong and Guangzhou in 2008–09. The atmosphere of the old and poor residential neighbourhoods, not far from supersized video screens, ultramodern buildings, and glittering temples of consumption, brought to mind long forgotten childhood experiences of Seoul in the 1960s before the radical modernisation, a period characterised by poverty and military dictatorship. In particular she was reminded of a troupe of entertainers seen a number of times as a child in a suburb of Seoul. Gougalon is an ‘imaginary folk music’ that is stylised, broken within itself, and only apparently primitive.
