Deh-Ho Lai: Symphony Mazu's Bodyguards (World premiere)

1888年春季，在一股狂熱之下，馬勒於短短六週內完成了他的第一部多樂章交響作品。然而，對於該如何定位這部作品，馬勒經過好一番猶豫：1889年以「分成兩部分的『交響詩』」之名稱首演；1893年再次上演時改稱「《巨人》，一部交響曲形式的音詩」；後在1899年以「D大調第一號交響曲」的名稱出版。

童謠《兩隻老虎》被馬勒改成小調，成為第三樂章重要的主題素材，構成一首時而神祕憂傷、時而諷刺輕浮的葬禮進行曲。曾帶有〈從地獄到天堂〉之標題，的終曲第四樂章，則象徵巨人的昇華。

同場音樂會將要首演國家文藝獎得主賴德和的《海神家族》交響曲。此委託創作源出於作家陳玉慧以臺灣為主景、敘述百年家族故事的同名暢銷小說。時代悲劇下的苦難與折磨，比之青年馬勒筆下的巨人所承受的，或許更要深重淒切。

In a bout of frenzy, Mahler completed his first multi-moment symphony in six weeks during spring, 1888. Yet he was unsure exactly how to define this composition. In 1889, he premiered it as "A Symphonic Poem in Two Parts"; in 1893, he presented it as "Titan, a Tone Poem in Symphonic Form". Later in 1899, Mahler published it under the title Symphony no. 1 in D Major.

The folk song "Are you Sleeping Brother John", transformed into minor key by Mahler, is the main theme of the third movement. This movement presents a funeral march that is mysterious and melancholic, at times ironic yet flippant. The fourth and final movement, once titled Dall' Inferno al Paradiso, symbolizes the titans' transcendence.

In this concert, we will also be presenting the symphony Mazu's Bodyguards by National Award of Arts winner Deh-Ho Lai. This commissioned work was inspired by author Jade Y. Chen's best-selling novel of the same name. The novel, which is mainly set in Taiwan, tells the story of a family's history that spans over a century. The pain and torture the family had to endure during tragic times are probably more profound than what the titans under young Mahler' depictions had to suffer.
