Performance records of the Music Department: "A medley of folk and animation music" Repertoire: Taro Yakaze: Passionate Continent (4Min) ​​Gary Schocker: Traditional Taiwanese Melodies for two flute (12Min)​ Gary. Shake: Taiwanese Folk Suite Disney Famous Song Collection (Arranged by Masaharu Kikuchi) (14Min) From passionate and unrestrained to nostalgic and warm, to childlike joy, each piece can show the versatility of the flute. The opening track was "Passionate Continent" with tango and samba style, adding a bit of passionate atmosphere to the afternoon and kicking off the day's performance. Then two flutes were used to present Taiwanese traditional melodies, which were reinterpreted through the flute sounds and combined with the buildings in the historical streets, which also gave some folk songs a sense of nostalgia. Finally, a collection of Disney famous songs was selected to lead the audience to recall the beauty of childhood and feel the rich emotions conveyed by the notes. "The Art of Singing: Present and Past" Repertoire: J. Offenbach (1819-1880): "Belle nuit, ô nuit d'amour" from Les Contes d'Hoffmann Offenbach (1819-1880): "Beautiful Night" from "Life is Beautiful" G. Puccini (1858-1924): "O mio babbino caro" from Gianni Schicchi Puccini (1858-1924): "My dear father" from the opera "Johnny Schicchi" Léo Delibes (1836-1891): “Sous le dôme épais” from Lakmé Léo. Delibes (1836-1891): "Flower Duet" from the opera "Lakme" Deng Yuxian (1906-1944): Flowers on a Rainy Night, Ballads of the Four Seasons, Watching the Spring Breeze Art is for everyone. Through classical music that has been baptized by time and local nostalgic music from Taiwan, it connects the emotions between people. "Beautiful Evening" by Offenbach (1819-1880) leads everyone into a romantic afternoon. Finally, three songs by Deng Yuxian (1906-1944) "Rainy Night Flowers", "Ballad of the Four Seasons" and "Looking at the Spring Breeze" are the ingenious ending of this musical journey. Through this kind of performance, I hope to plant some musical seeds for the audience in the historical streets where people come and go. These songs all carry stories of historical times, allowing the audience to appreciate music of different styles and eras. "The songs we listened to together in those years" Performance repertoire and format: 〈Olive tree〉/vocal*4, piano "The Hidden Girl - Ending Theme: Forever"/Recorder Trio + Triangle 〈The secret that cannot be told〉/violin*2, cello, vocal "Wild Rose"/Recorder Quartet "There is a Kind of Sadness"/Mixed Four-Part Duet "Those Years", "Little Lucky"/ Vocal 〈No music without music〉/lead singing This time, in conjunction with the Chengxi Film Life Festival, we selected several popular and well-received and best-selling movies in the past 20 years, and selected several familiar and very timeless movie soundtracks. Through students applying their daily learning, re-adapting and performing, it shows the achievements of the music department in professional learning; at the performance site, the students not only demonstrated their professional qualities, but also demonstrated the stage charm of each student. Through singing and physical performance, It also attracted the attention of the audience, who stopped and sang together. The program arrangement also reflects the ingenuity of the program design; the use of the classic old song "Olive Tree" as the opening also adds a touch of artistic flavor to the historical streets where people come and go, slowly attracting the audience's attention, accumulating the emotions of the scene, and finally rock style "No music, nothing", coupled with the lead singing, brought the audience's emotions to a high point, and also brought the whole event to a perfect ending. Performer's Notes: (1) It is recommended that there be more time for rehearsal. (2) During instrumental music performances, some performances can have more physical expressions and should be more generous when getting on and off the stage. Administrative Notes: (1) The rehearsal overlaps with the APP tour activities, distracting the APP tour performance from its focus. ​​4.
