碩士 === 國立臺灣藝術大學 === 表演藝術研究所 === 97 === This research is to analyze “The Night of Folk Songs” concert of ESO , and through the analysis to see the significance and value of folk songs symphonization in Taiwan. This study is based on Symphonization of Folk Songs by Evergreen Symphony Orchestra, and focuses on the phenomenon of Taiwanese folk songs recomposition duration and the changes on music, performing instrument, listening of audience and incidental music. The relation between music and language of Taiwanese folk songs symphonization is also analyzed in theory. The folk songs have changed with the living of folk. The folk songs which are hummed are symphonized and performed in concert hall consequently. The change of performing “field” brings other meanings. There is no better-and-worse between folk songs and symphony. The Symphonization of Folk Song is just the combination of folk songs and symphony. Thus, the Symphonization of Folk Song emits another level of transition in Taiwan. The Symphonization of Folk Song can be set into three phases of implementation. The first phase is to increase the amount of recomposition and performance of Taiwanese folk songs. The second phase is to dig into recomposition, and bring the content with deeper meanings and more diversity. The third phase, the reservation of Taiwanese ethnic spirit and combination of Taiwanese customs and cultures could be utilized for the element of music creation of Taiwanese folk songs. It will broaden the concept of Symphonization of Folk Songs in Taiwan.
