因曼陀林相遇的我們─臺灣曼陀林樂團紀錄片

Abstract

臺灣曼陀林樂團是目前臺灣最活躍的曼陀林音樂團體，自2007年由團長陳子涵創立以來，至今已十八年。樂團致力於推廣曼陀林音樂，吸引來自不同地區與背景的成員參與。團員因曼陀林而相識，並在持續的排練與演出過程中建立起深厚的友誼與歸屬感。樂團作為一個音樂社群，使成員透過共同的音樂實踐發展出群體認同，進而成為推動曼陀林音樂在臺灣發展的重要力量。本研究透過紀錄樂團的排練與演出過程，以及團長、指揮與團員的訪談，呈現曼陀林音樂在臺灣的發展脈絡，以及樂團成員之間如何透過音樂建立連結。透過影像的具體呈現，本研究企圖補足書寫民族誌在描繪人際互動上的不足，特別是能捕捉演奏過程中的「對話」關係，包括肢體語言、眼神交流、呼吸節奏與即興互動等細節，幫助觀者更真切地理解音樂如何在人群中運作與產生情感意義。The Taiwan Mandolin Ensemble is currently the most active mandolin music group in Taiwan. Founded in 2007 by Zihan Chen, the group has now been in existence for eighteen years. Dedicated to promoting mandolin music, the ensemble has attracted members from diverse regions and music backgrounds. Through shared musical practice over time, members not only became acquainted through the mandolin but also developed deep friendships and a strong sense of belonging. As a musical community, the ensemble fosters a collective identity among its members, who in turn play a vital role in further promoting mandolin music in Taiwan.This study documents the rehearsal and performance processes of the Taiwan Mandolin Ensemble and, through interviews with the ensemble leader, conductors, and members, explores the development of mandolin music in Taiwan and the interpersonal connections formed through music.Through the concrete presentation of video, this study seeks to address the limitations of written ethnography in capturing interpersonal interactions—particularly the “dialogic” relationships that emerge during musical performance, including body language, eye contact, breathing rhythms, and spontaneous interactions. These visual details help viewers more deeply understand how music operates within a group and generates emotional meaning.
