- LAW Wing Fai 羅永暉 | Hong Kong Composers' Guild
LAW Wing Fai 羅永暉 Law Wing-fai (Solo Theatre) is a leading composer in Hong Kong, and one of the few to have crossed over the boundary between commercial music and the arts. He is currently a Composer-in-Residence at the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, and Artistic Director of Wuji Ensemble. Law graduated from the University of California with a Master’s degree in Music (Composition and Electronic Music). He worked closely with Hong Kong’s New Wave directors in films during the 1980’s, having scored for more than 20 films including the award-winning Boat People, Dream Lovers and A Simple Life. He was the founding Head of Composition of the Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, a position which he subsequently held for many years. During the 1990’s, he was a Visiting Scholar at Stanford University where he gave lectures and wrote music. On returning to Hong Kong, he found a new angle in music composition, which resulted in many important works using Chinese-Western mixed instrumentation, the most representative of which are When Mountains Roar and Linli. He also founded Wuji Ensemble, a group that is known for its unique character. In May 2008, the Hong Kong Chinese Orchestra presented a critically acclaimed concert featuring Law’s works. With a diverse oeuvre spanning serious and commercial music, Law has written for pop music, commercials, drama, opera and in particular, for over a dozen dance dramas such as Song of the Good Earth and Rouge. His long list of accolades include the Irino Memorial Award presented at the Asian Composers’ League, the Hong Kong Film Award for Best Original Score, “Composer of the Year” by the Hong Kong Artists’ Guild, and being selected as one of the “Twentieth Century Masterpieces by Chinese Composers” by the Chinese Culture Promotion Society in Beijing. Law’s score for the drama production The Peach Blossom Fan was awarded “Best Original Music” by the Hong Kong Federation of Drama Societies. Law was also a five-time winner of the CASH Golden Sail Music Award between 2001 and 2008, with his opera Dreaming Plum Blossoms Away, Flowing Fancies for pipa and Western orchestra, Feng Liu for Chinese plucked strings, A Thousand Sweeps for pipa and Chinese orchestra, and Flowing Phantasm for Chinese Orchestra. 羅永暉是本港少數跨越藝術與商業領域的資深作曲家。現任香港演藝學院駐校作曲家及「無極樂團」藝術總監。他早年畢業於美國加州大學,主修作曲,獲碩士學位。 回港後與新浪潮導演合作創寫超過二十部電影音樂,如《投奔怒海》、《夢中人》及最近的《桃姐》等。其間創立香港演藝學院作曲系,並擔任該系系主任多年。 1995年再次赴美以訪問學人身份在美國史丹福大學從事講學及音樂創作,回港後以嶄新的寫作風格,發表多首大型中西樂器混合的作品如《山鳴》、《淋漓》 等,並創立風格獨特的「無極樂團」。2008年5月,香港中樂團舉辦「星河潑墨」— 羅永暉的中樂新境界專場音樂會,他的作品獲得音樂界的高度評價。 羅氏寫作多元化,除藝術音樂外還有流行音樂、廣告、電視劇、話劇、歌劇及十多齣舞劇音樂,如城市當代舞蹈團的《狂想大地》、香港舞蹈團的《胭脂扣》等。嬴得 的重要獎項中,包括亞洲作曲家同盟會議頒贈的入野義朗紀念大獎、香港電影金像獎最佳配樂獎、香港藝術家聯盟頒贈的藝術家年獎以及作品被北京中華民族文化促 進會選為「二十世紀華人音樂經典」之一。2001年至2008年期間,他以《桃花扇》獲得香港戲劇協會頒贈的最佳戲劇音樂獎,並以歌劇《夢拾紅梅》、琵琶 與西洋樂隊作品《逸筆草草》、中國彈撥樂作品《風流》、琵琶與中樂隊作品《千章掃》及中樂隊作品《星河潑墨》連獲五次香港作曲家及作詞家協會頒贈的金帆音樂獎。 MAJOR WORKS 主要作品 Orchestral (Western) Linli (1998) 15' for guan, sanxian & orchestra When Mountains Roar (1997) 12' for 4 Chinese soloists, orchestra & chorus A Thousand Sweeps (1997) 10' for pipa & orchestra Visions Beyond (1996) 12' Prealudium (1994) 2' for 2 ob, 2 hn & string orchestra Phantasm (1994) 16'30" for vc & orchestra Chou Si (1993) 20' for 3 high voices, Chinese & Western orchestras Intrada (1993) 15' Sphere Supreme (1992) 10' Overture (1989) 8' Musica Concertata (1987) 16' Pipa Concerto (1986) 30' Rice Field Dance (1979) 6' When Clouds Rise (1978) 12' Qian (1977) 10' Orchestral (Chinese) Flying Brush (1999) 16' Tang Capriccio (1996) 15' Ink Spirit (1996) 12' for pipa & Chinese string orchestra Puck (1990) 15' Ballade for 2 Pipas & Chinese Orchestra Concerto for Percussion and Orchestra (1986) 15' for Chinese perc & Chinese orchestra Soundscapes (1983) 20' Chamber (Western) Moon Spirit (2000) 15' for pipa & string quartet Link (1999) 10' for woodwind quintet Mood Sketches (1998) 12' for string quartet Vortex (1996) 10' for 2 pf Season Without a Name (1996) 15' for fl, ob, cl, string quartet & pf Ink Spirit (1995) 10' for pipa & string quartet Qian Si (1994) 8' for pipa & string quartet Kunk (1989) 14' for 4 pf & 2 perc Fantasia (1988) 10' for hpch & gtr Caprice in G (1988) 6' for vn & pf Plus One (1987) 8' for string quartet Sleeve Dance (1984) 12' for 2 pf & perc Sun Soundic (1983) 10' for fl, cl, pf, vn, vc & tape Dionysus Fantasia (1979) 7' for 3 fl, pf (celesta) & 2 perc Si Ahu Kou (1978) 8' for fl, va & pf Mulberry Grove Dance (1975) 7' for fl & gtr Chamber (Chinese) Autumn Vista on the River (1999) 5' for Cantonese ensemble A Spring Walk in the Mountains (1999) 5' for Cantonese ensemble Desolate Petals on the Guileless Water (1999) 5' for Cantonese ensemble Air Eleganza (1999) 12' for xiao, sheng, yangqin & zheng Incense Offerings (1986) 10' for xiao, erhu, pipa & zheng The Drunken Tai Bai (1985) 7' for dizi, sheng, yangqin & zheng Instrumental Solo In One Stroke (1996) 10' for pipa Shake'n Roll (1995) 10' for pipa Of Butterflies and Frogs (1992) 3' for pf Toccata (1991) 10' for marimba Intermezzo (1988) 8' for gtr Cantilena for One Finger (1985) 9' for pipa Misty (1974) 7' for pipa Three Little Pieces with Spiritual Touch (1972) 7' for pf Silkworm (1972) 7' for pipa Opera Dreaming Plum Blossoms Away (2000) 2 hrs Vocal / Choral Chou Nu Er (1996) 10' for mixed choir & pf What is the Taste of Sorrow (1994) 10' for alto, vn & pf My Ambition (1993) 5' for children' choir & pf/orchestra Yu Lin Ling (1993) 8' for mixed choir & pf Hope (1991) 6' for children's choir & pf Garden Song (1982) 7' for mixed choir & pf Neither Out Far Nor in Deep (1978) 6' for alto & cl in Bb Music for Dance / Drama Parting at River Yi (1993) 1 hr 30" Suppressed Romance (1991) 1 hr 30" Rouge (1991) 1 hr 30" Three Romantic Chinese-Song of the Earth II (1990) 1 hr 30" Homeland (1990) 1 hr Femme Fatale (1987) 1 hr 30" Chinese Historical Myth-Sun and Moon (Fame and Love) (1985) 30' Hung Liu Zui Yu (1983) 30' Song of the Good Earth (1983) 1 hr 30" Theatre Music Synopsis (1990) 1 hr The Emperor and the Nightingale (1985) 1 hr 30" Dragon Dance (1980) 30' Film Music Romance of Book and Sword (1988) Princess Fragrance (1988) Dream Lover (1986) Woman of Wrath (1985) Just Like Weather (1985) Women (1984) Boat People (1981) TV Music Vanguard (1985) Discography Tang Capriccio Hugo 7208-2 A Thousand Sweeps Hugo 7205-2 Pipa Concerto Hugo 71042 Phantasm Hugo 71042 Musica Concertata Hugo 71042 Sphere Supreme Hugo 799-2 Musica Concertata H.K.

《石牆樹》 Stonewall Trees 楊倩桐 Yeung Sin-tung Jessie 現於香港中文大學就讀文學士課程,主修音樂,副修政治與行政學及新聞及傳播。曾就讀香港演藝學院及其青少年音樂課程。現為香港青年中樂團、中大爵士樂團及崇基管樂團的低音大提琴手。 楊氏希望透過演奏和作曲,表達音樂的純粹。藝術的世界很大,還在探索,尋求音樂蘊含的意義和本質。 Yeung Sin-tung Jessie is pursuing a Bachelor of Arts from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, majoring in Music and minoring in Government and Public Administration (GPAD) and Journalism and Communication. She previously studied at The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts and was a student in its Junior Music Programme. She is now the bassist for the Hong Kong Youth Chinese Orchestra, CUHK Jazz Ensemble and Chung Chi Wind Orchestra. Yeung would like to express music’s simplicity and intrinsic qualities through performance and composition, exerting herself to explore the essence and inwardness of music in this boundless world of art. 石牆樹在港島十分常見。戰後技術改良,後建的石牆已沒有留下可供植物生長的石縫。 這樂章由2015年般咸道細葉榕斬樹事件啟發。以四位馬木巴琴的演奏者代表四棵細葉榕,金屬樂器、定音鼓及大鼓上與棒槌摩擦的聲音形容鋸樹情境,其後樂手以手拍打馬木巴琴表達樹幹被斬後重新生長的情況。 以馬木巴琴拉弦的聲音作結,猶如重現鋸樹的動作。石牆樹與石牆可反映城市面貌和發展變遷,透過創作此樂曲,理解我們如何投射了回憶和情感予石牆樹上? The stonewall tree is quite common in the Hong Kong Island area. During World War II, these trees already existed, and the technique of constructing stone walls was mastered by craftsmen from Dongguan. After the war, the technology improved, but the later-built stone walls no longer had crevices suitable for plant growth. This piece was inspired by the 2015 Bonham Road banyan tree felling incident. Four marimba players represent four banyan trees, while the sounds of metal instruments, scraping sounds of friction mallets on timpani, and bass drums depict the scenario of sawing trees. Subsequently, the musicians tap the marimbas, expressing the regrowth of trees after being cut down. The bowing sound of the marimba concludes the piece as if re-enacting the action of sawing trees. Stonewall trees and stone walls can reflect the city’s appearance and transformation. Beyond music, we hope to understand the relationship between walls and people, and the way we project memories and emotions onto the stone wall trees. Back
